Would You Rather?
In this task we had to write about if we would rather live in a world without computers or live in a world with no video games, i found this really fun and challenging to do and i think that next time i could do more paragraphs.
Would You Rather Live In A World Without Computers ?
OR
Would You Live In A World With No Video Games?
I would rather live in a world with no video games because if there were no computers then lots of peoples lives will be lost because nurses use computers to know about a person and see what is wrong with them.
Also we wouldn’t be able to do most things that we do now like lots of schools use computers to learn and we use technology in our daily lives for almost everything.
I think that this is a good choice because a world without Computers seems impossible because without the Computer then the first man who went to the moon wouldn’t happen.
