Do computers bring more benefits or problems in society?

Computers have become so necessary to modern living that it is difficult to believe

that they are a relatively recent invention. We cannot live without computers, as they
are involved in most of the everyday options. It’s really hard to imagine a life without
computers.

In schools, students use computers to learn and teachers use computer in their
teachings. All they need to do is just sit in front of the monitor and click the mouse.
That means computers make the learning and teaching processes more efficient. As
a result, students are all better educated. Although some people may complain
students of becoming less concentrated on the lessons if computers are used, it is
not the problem of using computers. That is the problem of the students’ behaviours.
We cannot blame the computers, as it is the responsibility of students.

In offices, businessmen use computers to trade with other companies, especially

those who are overseas. They can communicate with each other in a short time.
Thus, trades can be finished in a more efficient way. Besides, they can collect the
most up-to-date financial information from the Internet so that they can make the
best decision. Moreover, computers are used to control the operation of machines.
Therefore, the productivity of companies can be highly increased. According to a
survey report, the computer-related medical claims had a 5% increase within the last
two years, therefore it suggested us not to use computers in offices. However,
illnesses are brought by the inappropriate computer-aid working facilities. Illnesses
can be combated by using ergonomic desks or chairs.

In transportations, computers are used to control trains, ships and even the planes.
The use of computers makes the itinerary more steady and safe. Since these
computer systems are very reliable, pressures of the divers can be reduced. On the
other hand, computers are used to control the traffic lights. They can accurately
assign time for pedestrians and vehicles. They contribute to our transport system. It
is believed that computer system may be out of order, and unreliable. We should not
rely on them too much. It may be true to a certain extent. However the convenience
that computer brought to us cannot be neglected. Also they rarely become out of
order. Since the convenience out weight the problems, computers still bring us more
benefits.

Furthermore, computers together with Internet save one’s time. That is we can pay
the electricity, telephone, water, and town gas bills without going out. We can make
appointments through the Internet too, e.g. making smart ID and booking of stadium.
Also we can renew books. All these services are provided simply just by logging into
your own account. Although hackers may log on to personal data in some web’s
database, most of the government webs and bank webs have set up a well-secured
computer system to protect customers’ personal data. Therefore we don’t need to
worry about that.

To conclude, computers are our tools to create a better society to live in. They have
already taken a vital role in our society. This only means computers bring us more
benefits than problems.
