Practice I. Topic: Are new technologies positive or negative?

       Nowadays we are living a new technologies revolution in which everybody's used to have a smartphone or a tablet, but my question is: are these new technologies positive or negative?

       In my opinion, electronic gadgets are simple tools, so they are neutral. What can be positive or negative is the way we use these tools. 

       On one hand, new technologies are good to make easier some jobs or tasks and be communicated in real time.

       On the other hand, smartphones and computers are being used by children in school as a new way of studying and doing homework and in their free time. I think that children should practice their orthography and develop their handwriting skills, as well as they should have a timetable for playing videogames or using the Internet.

In conclusion I'd like to repeat my opinion about this topic: new technologies aren't positive nor negative, everything depends on the use we give them.
