Writeback!

Please, read the comments about technology.

A. IS TECHNOLOGY A GOOD OR BAD THING?

How have computers, the Internet, email and mobile phones changed your life? Have they changed the way we do business? Are there good and bad things about technology? What do you think?


Most people say technology has made our lives very fast and very convenient. But I don´t think so. The fact is that is has also made us very lonely. We interact with machines for 8 - 10 hours a day and spend less than 2 - 3 hours interacting with other humans.


It seems to me that technology is a good thing. It allows me to find out what is really happening in the world, not just what the media want me to believe. Th problem is that some governments want to control what is available on the Internet too. 

B. WRITE YOUR OWN COMMENT USING THE FOLLOWING STRUCTURE. 

It seems to me that tecnology ______________________________.
Most people say _________________________. But I´m not about that/I don´t think so. In my opinion, __________________. For example, ___________________.
The fact is that / The problem is that ____________________________.
Finally, _______________________. Technology ________________________ my life.
