How often do we use electric appliances in our daily life?
As for my family, we cant live without our computer. Its more a necessity rather than a luxury because we use it every day for our work. More than that, I often communicate with my friends and colleagues, surf the Internet and read the news. Sometimes I even do the shopping via the Internet. Besides, my husband usually downloads some programmes, music, films and plays computer games. My son never uses our computer but from time to time he asks me to find some information he needs.
