We are living in an era when juveniles are exposed to a dazzling array of information, which contributes to the phenomenon that a growing number of the youth cannot resist the alluring and tantalis- ing information from the internet. The figures carried by press, in all likelihood, colour the mind of the young generation or make detrimental affect on their perspective of the world as children tend to be more unable to distinguish right from wrong. Admittedly, no one could deny the merits that computers bring about. With a wealth of technology swarm in, computers as a part of that, particularly enrich and spice up our life. Children have more access to broaden their horizon and enjoy knowledge information from the technology equipment. However, that could not consist the top priority we should take into consideration now. © Sample 2 However, the main concern is about the type of computer activities that attract children. These are often electronic games that tend to be very intense and rather violent. The player is-usually the “hero” of the game and too much exposure can encourage children to be self-centred and insensitive to others. Chuong 1 Thn higu vé mén thi Vidt IELTS www.nhantriviet.comvaww.nhantriviet com B s Even when children use a computer for other purposes, such as getting information or emailing friends, it is no substitute for human interaction. Spending time with other chil- dren and sharing non-virtual experiences is an important part of a child’s development that cannot be provided by a computer. In spite of this, the obvious benefits of computer skills for young children cannot be denied. Their adult world will be changing constantly in terms of technology and the Internet is the key to all the knowledge and information available in the world today. Therefore, it is important that children learn at an early age to use the equipment enthusiastically and with confidence as they will need these skills throughout their studies and working lives.
