THE ROLE OF TECHNICAL PROGRESS
The scientific and technical revolution has changed our life very much. The
computers, the mobile phones and other digital devices have entered our
everyday life.
The atomic space and energy age was followed by the age of computer. The
task which had seemed eternal before have been solved one by one by
computers. During the last decade many fundamental changes occurred because
of electronic devices. It is even difficult to imagine the social and economic
consequences of the microelectronic revolution.
The large use of computers has influenced our life in such a way that it was
difficult to imagine 15 or 20 years ago. On the one hand, computers have
simplified our life greatly. If you typed a text on the typewriter and made a
mistake you had to type the whole page again. Making several copies of the same
document used to be a difficult job too. But now it’s quite different. Correcting
mistakes is easy. Computer also helps us to buy goods, find information, book
tickets, make presentations and annual reports, and make difficult calculations.
Time is saved for leisure.
Leisure time is also influenced by computer and other periphery devices.
You no longer go to the music shops - many things are available on the internet
You needn’t write letters to your relatives or friends - you can send an e-mail.
And your photo albums are on computer too.
Computer games are probably also a part of your free time. They bеcаme
mоrе and more realistic and complicated, and for many people it becomes
impossible to tear themselves away. This means that electronic devices, such a
computer and TV set are used mostly for entertainment and consume most of the
time that could be spent on work, going for a walk and sleeping. Man becomes a
slave of the devices which were designed to make him stronger.
Is there a way out? In fact, there is, but many people don't know it and are
stills laves. The best decision is not to give these equipment place in your heart.

to virtual one and living an active life to watching films about crime. Then
electronics will be not our lord or enemy but our friend!

День 1я просто перешел из средней школы в старшую школу и от частной к общественной. За одну ночь я превратился из старейших, самый опытный студент в школе в молодой, самый зеленый новичок. Многие вещи путаете, как мой график. Я заблудилась сегодня, пытаясь найти художественный класс. И где мой класс математика? Миль отсюда...День 2Так это было здорово, чтобы потерять эту ужасную униформу и носить джинсы для разнообразия, но есть намного больше к нему, чем это. Было трудно подружиться быстро. Что мне больше всего не хватает, зная, что все — мы все были так близко. Мы были вместе уже 9 лет!День 3Я очень скучаю по моей школе. Даже еда была лучше. У нас было больше разнообразия, и было то, что вкусная пицца каждую пятницу!!! Было меньше студентов в моей предыдущей школе и не столько нарушителей спокойствия. Здесь я чувствую себя ужасно одиноко. Никто не обращает на меня никакого внимания. Хотел бы я остался там!День 4Сегодняшний день был полон сюрпризов. Мой предмет по выбору-это командные виды спорта. Я выбрал его, потому что я ожидал, что будет много других девочек в нем. Я оказался очень не прав. Было только пять других девочек и приблизительно 30 мальчиков! Но это на самом деле оказался хорошим. Я подружилась со многими мальчиками из моего класса.Спустя два месяцаЯ почти закончил семестр в государственной школе. Это все-таки очень тяжело. Я получаю тройки в табеле впервые.Но мне нравится это намного лучше, чем Частная школа. Государственной школы не означает, что это легче. Домашнее задание немного легче, но тесты гораздо труднее.
Я иду и гуляю на улице но это бывает не всегда все зависит от погоды если гулять не удается я играю в разные игры с моим братом много других интересных занятий можно найти дома
