I COULDN’T LIVE WITHOUT MY COMPUTER AT HOME 

My name is Kate. I use my computer all the time. It is like a typewriter and address book for me and it is also used for checking my spelling. Besides I can go on the Internet and discover everything about anything, it is a brilliant source of information. I’ve designed my own website and I’m getting loads of information for school. Besides some websites are packed with quizzes, games and competitions, it is all you need for hours of fun on your computer. You can play and learn on it. It is absolutely essential. I don’t know how I ever managed without it.

But my elder sister thinks people are getting a bit too dependent on computers. She thinks that we rely on them too much. My sister says, that we can’t rely on all the information, we don’t know who it has been written by or where it is coming from. To be dependent on anything, especially a lifeless machine that can quite easily break down, is not good. Besides, computers shouldn’t replace seeing your friends.
