I feel computers have made life easier and more convenient. All the manual work will be replaced when the computers are used and accessing the information is also faster. Below are some of the examples to support my point of view. In older days, Typewriters were used effectively to print the contents on the paper. But, if more copies of the same data were needed, as many pages as needed. typing once is required. The data could be transferred to a device and any number of copies could be printed. This reduces manual effort In any government company, the documents were and recorded manually. This In the case of fire or any disasters, the information will be lost or destroyed. Nowadays this process is being computerised and it is more secure than This makes searching also faster and multiple backups can be taken to secure the data more. Nowadays I feel 75% of the banking is computerised and most of the transactions are online which could be done from home itself. This is safer than a manual transaction. This also reduces the work of going to a bank. Getting the corresponding forms, filling them, and crediting or debiting the money. Some people do not have the data through computers or they may be workaholic and not concentrating on any other things in life than computers and hence they may feel computers have made their life more complex and stressful.

Overall assessment
Why this response received Band 6.0
The response presents a clear position and supports it with relevant, well-chosen examples such as typewriters, government records, and online banking, which is its strongest aspect. The main limitation is underdeveloped analysis of the opposing view, together with mechanical organisation and recurring grammatical errors that reduce overall precision.
