Fourteen children told us they did some word processing(文字处理) at
times. Eight people told us they kept addresses and phone numbers on their computers or used them
as diaries. Only three people said they were learning to write computer programs and nobody used databases(数据库). Only two of them said computers helped with their lessons. The diagram(表格) gives all the results one by one.
