Although computers used to be large, expensive and difficult to use, they have been made smaller, cheaper and easier to use. As a result, more people have been buying computers for their homes and businesses. They are used to record information and make difficult things easy.
Let’s look at some of the many ways computers may affect(影响) your life.
Want to get the best treatment at hospitals? Your doctors at hospitals have been greatly helped by computers to get information about patients. It is possible for doctors from different hospitals to read the records of patients, discuss them and make decisions on the best treatment. It would, at one time, take them hours and days to do so.
Want to talk to your friends both at home and abroad? Then it’s necessary to connect your computer to the Internet and set up your own e-mail letter box. You can then collect and send mails in seconds. It will be a waste of time and money to post your letters.
Want to get advice from Michael Jordan on how to play basketball like a NBA super star? Now it is possible to find out what it is on the Internet.
But if you think you have entered the information age because you have the chance to use the Internet, you are wrong. The reason is quite a simple one:over 98 percent of the information on the Internet is in English. The information on-line won’t be helpful to you unless you can use English freely.
