COMPUTERS
ย
ย
What do you use computers for?
ย
(Answer 1)ย
ย
Obviously, I use computers for typing documents and for online movie streaming. I think Iโm not the only one whoโs doing this since these are the common uses of computers. Itโs either for work or for entertainment purposes.ย
ย
(Answer 2)
ย
Unfortunately, I donโt have a computer at home since itโs not a need for me. I have my smartphone or a tablet where I can watch movies or surf the web. However, I use a computer at work for sending emails, typing some documents, and for video presentations.ย
ย
ย
When was the first time you used a computer?
ย
(Answer 1)ย
ย
If I remember correctly, that was when I was 15 years old. We had a computer subject in high school and we needed to learn how to operate it. I learned basic computer skills such as creating presentations, word processing, creating spreadsheets, and video calling. That was really fun as most of us didnโt have any experience of using a computer. So weโre kinda scared of operating computers. (Laughter)
ย
(Answer 2)
I started using a computer when I was only 8 years old. Well, I was born in a computer age so itโs very common to use computers at a very young age. I remember I made a PowerPoint presentation about my favorite animals which I presented in front of the class. I didnโt have any difficulty using a computer back then since my older brother was my tutor.ย
ย
ย
What would your life be like without computers?
ย
(Answer 1)ย
ย
Without computers, I believe my work would be so laborious (arduous; difficult). Well, part of my work is to send emails to our clients so if thereโs no computer, I think I would be so exhausted visiting a post office to and fro (in one direction and then the opposite direction). Not only that, my hands would be paralyzed (partly or wholly incapable of movement) from writing 10-20 pages of contracts for our clients. Thinking about it is just insane (outrageous)!ย
ย
(Answer 2)
ย
I think life would be dull because Iโm so dependent on using a computer. Itโs a tool that helps me entertain and get educated by finding some important information online. Besides, I wouldnโt be able to do online banking or book a plane ticket very easily without computers. Thanks to (owing to, because of) computers my life or our lives have been so comfortable.ย
ย
ย
Do you think computers have changed your life?
ย
(Answer 1)ย
ย
Definitely! When I was an elementary student, computers were not that popular yet, so most of the time I needed to go to a public library to study. However, when I was a high school and college student, I heavily relied on using a computer to do my assignment or to learn something which I didnโt learn in school. And now that Iโm a worker, computers have helped me work efficiently.ย
ย
(Answer 2)
ย
Without a doubt (certainly)! Because of computers and the easy access to the internet, my understanding of so many things has widened. I can say that Iโm more educated now since thereโs easy access to information. Not only that, I can watch movies as much as I want without breaking the bank (cost too much). Thanks to online movie streaming sites.ย
