Using the computer, good points and bad points

Using the computer, good points and bad pointsI'm going to explain about using the computer, good points and bad points. First, I'm going to explain good points. It is that I can know the things on the web which I want to know. For example, when I don't know a word, I can look up the word on the web. And I can complete the report by typing.
The bad point is that I have come to poor eyes since I use the computer. It is so inconvenient. And one bad point is that I grow fat. We decrease in exercise quantity. 95words
