Some people think that the increasing use of computers and mobile phones

for communication has a negative effect on young people's reading and


writing skills. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

As the technology of the internet develops by leaps and bound, mobile phone and computer
become most widespread. More and more young people always use computers and mobile
phones to communicate. Virtually, prolonged use of electronic devices will affect young
people in their skills for writing and reading.
To prove this viewpoint, we need to know mobile phones and computers how to influence
young people. First and most important, the internet was attractive to young people and
recently a lot of online vocabulary appeared on the internet. But they were informal
language, therefore when Young people were writing their essays or report, their will used
online words in their literature.
Moreover, many young people were accustomed to using abbreviations when sending the
message and there are applications to help them complete and correct their spelling and
grammar errors. Over time, they will lose their caliber for the spell the most commonly used
words and often forget how to write the correct words.
Secondly, influenced by abbreviations and grammar there will ignore the structure of the
article, and they will tend to neglect accuracy when writing articles. Therefore, the writing
ability of young people may be affected. Meanwhile, according to the development of the
internet, people can get the information they wanted to know by easily thus their will lost
their independent thinking. Evidently, they will lack deep thinking, and neglect article
structure and consistency.
Besides, it was time-consuming to indulge in computer and mobile chat. As a reason, it was
interesting to young people, and there will spend a ton of time on the internet and resulting
in reduced reading time. In fact, we can learn a lot of things on the internet, but most people
ignore a thing, that is the information on the internet was fragmented. So, although they
regard they're learning most things on the internet, they're really just scratching the surface.
On the other hand, the use of computers and mobile phones can also bring some positive
outcomes. Previously, when some wanted to read a book their have no alternative purchase
a book from a bookstore, but now with the popularity of e-books people can easily read the
book they want to read, and they can access a wide range of exceptional literary works.
Moreover, there can find the same interest people on the internet and share their
viewpoints on something.
In a nutshell, every coin has two sides, the influence of computers and mobile devices
depends on how they are used. Young people should use the internet wisely and reasonably
use can aid in the development of necessary skills. Not only that, young people should not
have excessive reliance on computers and mobile phones.
