CPE Essay: Computers, friends or
enemies?
CPE Writing task: After a class discussion on computers and the future,
your English teacher has asked you to write an essay entitled "Computers:
friends or enemies?" for her and your classmates to read.
Computers: Friends or enemies? (title)
(introduction)
There has come a time in which we have become too dependent on
computers. We rely on them to do very delicate tasks like controlling space
vessels and under-water fast trains, but we also need them to perform
ridiculous others such as calculating a two-digit equation. It is yet to be
known whether computers will prove to be our best friends who will make
our lives easier or an enemy who will take over our places as we become
useless and lazy.
(conclusion)
Even when these arguments may seem exaggerated and we may not think
we are at a real risk of ending up living in a world which is entirely
dominated by computers - the way it happens in science fiction B movies-,
I do fear we might become so dependent on them that our abilities would

be diminished. So as I see it perhaps it would be a good idea to go back to
counting with fingers.
