Computers are very important to modern (现代的) life. Many people think that in the future computers will
be used in lots of everyday life. It is thought that we won't have to go shopping because we will be albe to get
most things which are sold in shops on the internet. There will be no more books because we will be able to
get all texts from computers. The internet will be used to play games, see films and buy food. Most telephone
calls will be made by computers.
Some people are glad about these new ways of shopping and communicating (交流). Others do not think
that computers will replace (取代) our old ways.
Let's look at books, for example. Some people think that one day we will not read books made of paper.
Instead, we will buy and read books using computers. We will read texts on small pocket computers. The
computers will keep many different books in them at the same time. We won't need to turn lots of pages and
paper will be saved, Computerized (计算机化的) books will be used more and more.
Is internet shopping such a pleasure as going to the shop? Many people say it is not. It is a pleasure to go
into shops and look at things you want to buy. Also probably people won't like to read large texts on our
computers. Because paper books seem to be more frinendly. Maybe computers won't change these two habits(习惯).
