One of the most conspicuous trends of today's world is the colossal upsurge in the use of computer technoloay
(topic name) There is a widespread worry that this will nly lead to a myriad of concerns in the society. In my
opinion, computer technology (topic name) has more négative impacts than positives in the society.
di roheuy -% ——
On the one hand, critics may point out that one of the most significant benefits of computer technology topic
name) is the availability of extra time (topic name). For example, mothers unlike in the past, now have more time
to spend with their families, as less time is spent doing their house chores, thanks to efficient household machineries.
On the other hand, there are number of arguments in favour of my stance. One of the most preponderant one is.
that, computer dependency (topic name) has negative consequences for the community in various ways. Firstly,
people are losing their jobs (negative 1) because machines are increasinaly taking over the roles of humans, {reason
for negative 1) such as in the car manufacturing sector. (example ) According to “Times Magazine December 2017
edition”, the proportion of Americans employed in manufacturing has dropped down from 30 per cents to 10 per
cents today. Secondly, a large portion of human population has lost enthusiasm (negative 2) because of computer
technology and is increasingly becoming lazier and less efficient. (reason for negative 2)
Lastly, in my opinion, the government of Australia is taking a great initiative in educating its citizens against the
negative impact of computer technology. Citizens are being encouraged to spend a significant portion of thelr time in
physical activity like games and exercises, (reccomendation) in order to compensate for their computer reliance and
addiction.
In view of the arguments outlined above, one can conclude that despite having some benefits, the drawbacks of
computer technology (topic name) in the society ore indeed too dire to ignore.
