We cannot imagine our life without it None if every amportant to communicate with your family and friends. At the same time, we can find the opinion that the usage of mobile phones can be harmful and dangerous. I think that mobile phones are very useful in our everyday life. Firstly, it is very convenient, as people can call each other anywhere. Secondly, each telephone has such devices as a calendar, a camera, the Internet, an alarm clock and others. No matter where we are, there is an opportunity to get connected to the Internet, check our e-mails and find any necessary information. In addition mobile phones can help fill in our free time. For example, we may play games on it. Moreover, you are always available to delay movings or fet somebody know if you are late. Thirdly, many parents buy cell phones for their children just for safety. Ita child gets into some trouble, he can call emergency services or his parents. If you need, you can call the police or an ambulance At the same time, some people believe that mobile phones are dangerous. Their microwaves can be very horooful and they affect our health greatly. In addition, there is such a phenomenon as a mobile phone kiszoon, and it's a real problent in our society. Besides, when a person speaks on the phone in public places, we can learn to other people's conversations or sometimes phones ring a lot of times. It is so In conclusion, I'd like to say that mobile phones make our life easier but nevertheless, there is a negative eflect on our health. That is why people shouldn't overuse them Computers computers have filled our life. We do not imagine our leisure without this miracle-machine. They have mach better memories and they can store much information. No man alive can do 500,000 tms in one second, but a computer can. In fact, computers can do many of the things we do, but faster and better. They can predict weather, and even play chess, write poetry or compose music. With the help of souttpaters the Internet has entered into our life. It's a brilliant source of information because the Bilenet is a big encyclopedia Now people cannot live a day without checking of mail and visiting their Little vites. The linernet is not only the assistant in datly work, it is also the other world in which there are sail boxes, libraries, photo galleries, games, shops. The internet gives us a chance to communicate with people all over the world It is interesting to learn about a life in different countries and you can practise English talking to native speakers. Also you can use the internet if you are looking for a job or to find people who share your interests. By means of the Internet people can travel to different cities, visit tourist places Certainly, the Internet can be the excellent assistant in information search. But we can't rely on all the information. Moreover, some sites are insuitable for children and should be controlled by parents. Besides, the internet can cause addiction. We lose a touch with the real world getting in a full dependence on a computer. But computers shouldn't replace seeing your friends. And finally, users of the internet get a lot of spam every day which is very annoying Taherk that nis necessary to understand, what is really important on the Internet and what is not. And then the laternet sill he not the terrible enerny, but the indispensable assistant vision common knowledge that television now plays an important role in our life. It is difficult to say od or bad for us. n the one hand, we can say that TV is our eyes because TV helps us to know more about the world, bout the other counties, about the events that happened in the world. It's the main source of informa and a cheap form of entertainment for millions of people. It gives us an opportunity to "travel" all ove he world, to "meet" different people and learn about their customs and traditions. It has the power to educate and broaden our minds. It helps us to relax after a hard day's work and escape from reality. There's always a great variety of programmes on TV: news and sports programmes, talk shows, games, concerts and theatre performances... On the other hand, television is a terrible waste of time. It makes us lazier. We stay at home instead of young out. We read less. We think less. We even talk less. Before we admitted the one-eyed monster 'nto our homes, we never found it difficult to occupy our spare time. For instance, we used to have hobbies, we used to go outside for our amusements to theatres, cinemas, restaurants and sporting events. We read books and listened to music. All that belongs to the past. Television encourages passive enjoyment. Little by little, it cuts us off from the real world. Besides, very often the programmes are bad. There is also too much ads Violence on TV is another problem that worries people. As George Mikes once said, TV teaches us "how to kill, to rob, to shoot and to poison.
