Computers: A blessing or a curse?

There aren’t many people who don’t know how to use computers these days. Look in almost any home, classroom or office and you’ll probably spot a computer.
    It is true that computers can save a lot of space and time. Firstly, computers help save a lot of paper and that’s good for the environment. Secondly, computers save space in your house because they can do the job of encyclopaedias and other books. Lastly computers help us learn and allow us to stay in contact with people via e-mail.
     On the other hand, the use of computers can lead to problems. To begin with, computers can be bad for your eyes, especially as some children may spend too much time playing computer games. Moreover, computers don’t help children communicate with others. Instead, children spend their time indoors sitting in front of a computer screen.
     To sum up, computers have their good points and their bad points.

The first of September is the first day of school. It is a happy day for all schoolchildren and their parents. It is especially a great holiday for those boys and girls who are beginning to go to school.

Let’s go out and see what people are doing in the streets this morning. There are a lot of schoolchildren in the streets. They are going to school. Boys and girls are carrying schoolbags, many of them have flowers in their hands. Senior pupils are going to school by themselves, but small children are going with their parents at their side.

There are pupils in the schoolyard. They are not playing games this morning. They are speaking about the summer holidays, about their new teachers and what is new at school. Music is playing and soon a meeting begins. The pupils, their parents and other people who are present listen to the director’s speech. Then a small girl with flowers is ringing the bell. The pupils are going to their classrooms and school year is beginning.
