Write about computers using the following words:Adding background customisingdefault digital displayedformat image performanceproperties screen saver setting uptasks wallpaper wireless

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Answers will vary! Sample answer:---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The control panel provides options for customising the appearance of your computerscreen, adding or removing programs and setting up network connections.

When you get a new computer, perhaps the first thing you will want to do is set the date and time. You can also choose the format for dates and times. For example,November 4th 2013 can be displayed as 04-11-2013, 2013-11-04 or in variousother formats.

You may wish to change the desktop background to a picture, for example a personalphoto taken on a digital camera. A picture on the desktop background is also

known as wallpaper.

If a computer screen shows the same image for a very long time, it can leave apermanent impression. To avoid this, you can choose a screen saver. This is usually a simple moving pattern which activates if the computer is not used for a set amount of time (for example, five minutes).

You can also use the control panel to set up or change internet and other networkconnections, including wireless network connections.

In fact, you can change most aspects of your computer's performance through thecontrol panel, such as the system properties, modem settings, scheduledtasks , although most users prefer to leave on the default settingsrather than changing them.----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
