Frank is a writer. However he don't work hard, so he doesn't have much money. One day a rich man give a lot of money and computer to him. He started his work, but the computer give him many asks. He gradually hate the asks, therefore he needs "Help"

I could learn the way of work. Frank has a wonderful talent,but he always don't work. No matter how he get great items, I think he don't success. Instead of relying something, it is important to keep trying effort by myself. ( )

Frank Wormold is a witer,but his book isn't always finished. Although his wife forces him to start standard job, he didn't,so they have few money. One day,his book was got credit ,and when he write the book ,he began to use the computer he didn't like. But actually,he didn't feel well about the computer. What the real meaning of writng by himself?
This book made me think about effective thing. In this case, I can compere between writing and computer. Also I realized that it's important not to get up my dream, This story gave me the cance to think of jobs carefully. ( )

Frank Wormold was a writer. But he didn't work so he didn't have much money and his wife was angry.
Then with someone's help he gave a computer to write a book.
The computer gave him enough help.

This story is short , but it was very fun to me.
Because this genre is comedy, but I knew what was important.
Did too much convenient life make a person better? ( )
