〔托福参看范文之三〕
Some people believe that computers provide easier and more convenient lives for them. In their opinion, computers help them surf internet and share information. They may communicate directly by E.mail. But others hold that computers have made life more complex and stressful and they point out that computers bring many bad effects to human beings, such as information security problem because of hacking attack and environmental pollution because of irradiation. As far as I concerned, I prefer the first opinion rather than the second view.

My opinion comes from following three aspects. First of all, computer made life more efficient than before. For example, people might access websites, gain a lot of valuable information and contact each other around the world. Secondly, computer made life more relax and easier.Computers provide varity kinds of games and people could enjoy and relax from them everyday.

Finally, compute help people solve many complicated problem by software, such as investment and finance. Therefore, people’s life become more simple and convenient.

However, just as what other people say that computers give us some negative effects in the meantime. For example, Irradiation does harm for our bodies and eyes, so we can not made people seat too long in front of computers. Hacking is a really trouble, and we are supposed to enhance computer control and technology.

In general, computers give people an easier and convenient life. Although there exists some bad effects of computers as mentioned above. We are supposed to do our best to solve the problems and pay more attention on their good effects. I believe that our society will benefit more from them in the future.

Nowadays some may hold the opinion that computers have made life easier and more convenient, but others have a negative attitude; they say that computers have made life more complex and stressful. As far as I am concerned, I agree that computers have brought more advantages than disadvantages to our life. My arguments for this point are listed as follows.

One of the primary causes is that computers have improved the quality of life in our society. They have brought to us more conveniences than ever before: whether we book a plane ticket, arrange a travel to foreign countries, or hook up a telephone line, with the help of computers and modern technologies, they can be done in a few minutes by simply a phone call or a few key strokes; we will not have to run from one place to another, and wait for thousands of years before we can get
the services we want.

There is a further more subtle point we must consider. Because computers can make use of more personal details about people, companies can provide customers with more individualized service than before. Take booking for a plane ticket for example, as soon as the operator input our name and telephone number into the computer, the system can retrieve our information from the database, and it will analyze our previous traveling patterns and habits, and decide the best fair, airline, traveling time and seating for us. The computer can also arrange accommodations after we arrive at the destination. All these can be done in just a few seconds.

What is more, computers give people more convenient access to useful information and services. Nowadays computers and internet is ubiquitous in every corner of our world. We use computers in libraries and public agencies to check up for useful information and the books we need.

Furthermore we access internet or CD-Rom to get whatever information we want. Before traveling to a new place, we can check on the computer what the place looks like, what spots are must-sees, and how we can get there. We can get information from the internet on how to get a drivers license, how to write an article on a topic, and even take simulation tests on a specific subject. The computer is such a great learning and information tool!

Recognizing the fact that computer is so indispensable to our daily life, we can safely conclude that computers have made life easier and more convenient for us.
