We made a survey among thirty young people between 14 and 18. All the children had computers at home. The usual time s 1 on a computer in a week was about 12 hours,with the highest user about 32 hours,and the 1 2 user only 5 hours.

All the children said they usually used computers to play g 3 . Fourteen children told us that they did some word processing (文字处理) at times. Only two of them said computers h 4 with their lessons,and eight people told us they kept a 5 and phone numbers on their computers or used them as diaries. Only three people said they were learning to make computer p 6 and nobody looked up databases (数据库) .None of them used computers for any other use.

The survey results show that computer use is quite high among 14-18-year-old c 7 . They also show quite clearly that computers are r 8 by most young people as more than game machines. The only other great uses are for wordprocessing and k 9 address lists. It seems to us that,though computers are c 10 in the homes of young people,they have not yet become useful in everyday life.
