IELTS WRITING TASK 2 - DIRECT ESSAY - NALLA JAYANTH
We are becoming increasingly dependent on computers. They are used in business, crime detection and even to fly planes. What things will they be used for in the future? Is this dependence on computers a good thing or should we be more suspicious of their benefits?
Today computers are used almost everywhere, it is impossible
to imagine our life without PCs, the Internet, mobile phones and other computer
devices. It is reasonable to think that people look forward to the future of
computers. In what
field will be computers used for and what role will human has in this world in the future?
Besides, computers make our life easier, we can
easily get information about any product we plan to buy or place we plan to
visit in a second using a personal computer and the Internet. Scientists predict that in the nearest
future it will be possible to smell a new perfume using the Internet and watch
3D scenes at home like we do in the movie theater. According to forecasts of HR agencies, machines will replace jobs of cashiers, civil and military pilots.
Some corporations in Japan are already selling
housewife-robots, which help old people to keep
their homes clean.
Despite the fact that computers help us, they
make us dependent. Apparently, people spend more time in front of monitors than ever
before. And some of them feel a need for more time to be spent with people in
live contact. In addition, a breakdown of one of the important modules of a
specific computer can entail serious consequences. Suffice to mention
the computer problem that occurred at the end of the 1990s, a problem related to
the coming year 2000 (Y2K) and catastrophes that were predicted. Fortunately, imminent disasters did not happen. However, it is difficult to imagine what
could be if all the predictions came true.
We live in a technological era, computers
penetrated everywhere with all benefits they provide and all dangers they hide.
However, we are satisfied with them and sometimes we even thank them because
they help us in communicating, studying, doing business, entertainment and
saving lives in critical situations.
