Some people say that computers have made life easier and more convenient. Other people say that computers have made life more complex and stressful. What is your opinion? Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.

There are many argumenets whether computers help human life easier and more convenient or not. I am convinced by the statement because of the following three reasons, saving time, shortening distance, and interactive interfaces.

First of all, computers make it possible that people process their works with them faster than without them. For example, imagine that you are dealing with millions of records of customers in your business. Unless you do use spreadsheet program on your computer,probably you could not finish it on time. Even though you have any complex work process, computers could help your working by their proper programs. Moreover, we may save time by using computer, and saved time allows us to do something else which we want to do. This is one reason why I advocate the statement.

Secondly, using computers, we can do so much things over long distance. In the age without the Internet, no person could communicate other person in other location within a minute. However, the technical development nowadays allows us to do. For instance, I have an experience that when I studied English, I trained speaking skills with talking a foreign teacher living in U.S., Also it is easy to find other examples. If the development of computers does not exist, that could not be.

Additionally, people would use computers easily with developing interactive user interface. We can see icons and graphics on computer moniters and know what to do in order to task we want to do. Moreover, touch-screen technics will be spreading, so young children or old persons will spend computers more easily. The touch-screen is just an example to understand how to allow computers to help us.

In conclusion, growing computer technics could make people life easier and more convenient. Saving time, communicating over distance, and easily using computers could be the reason why we do not give it up to using computers. I conclude that computers should be useful for us.
