Now computers are very among young people. Last week, we asked thirty young people fourteen and eighteen. We asked how much they usually spent on their computers in a week, but we most interested in they used their computers for.
The usual time spent on a computer in a week was about twelve hours, with user about thirty-two hours, and the lowest user only five hours.
All the children said they usually used computers . Fourteen children told us they did some word processing (文字处理) . Only two of them said computers their lessons, and eight children told us they kept addresses and phone numbers in their computers or used to write diaries. Only three children said they were learning to make computer programs and nobody looked up databases (数据库). None of them used computers for any use.
The show that computer use is quite high among young people of 14-18 years old. They also show quite clearly that computers by most young people as little more than game machines. , though computers are common in the homes of young people, they have not yet become in everyday life.
