* Response 1
It is true that having more and more devices and appliances is helping to make our lives more convenient.
Some of the things that help my family with the housework are a dishwasher, vacuum cleaner and laundry machine. They help us in many ways but most importantly, we can save a lot of time by using them. Since all of us work, it is very important that we don¡®t have to spend too much time on chores. That¡®s when these things come in handy. Because it¡®s very easy to operate these devices, everybody in my family can use it. This surely has affected the household responsibilities, too. Thanks to these devices, all the family members can equally share the chores without complaining about the labor and effort needed to do the job.
So I definitely feel that appliances and electronic devices have played a great role in making changes in household responsibilities. I can¡®t think of my life without any of these machines.

* Response 2
My company does offer many kinds of training programs to help newcomers fit easily into the working environment.
For instance, a workshop on communication skills teaches them how to communicate effectively to reach positive outcomes in difficult situations. This can help them solve the tough communication challenges the newcomers face with their new co-workers. Another required program for the newcomers is a workshop on computer skills. Here, they get to learn how to operate some of the essential programs which are used in our company along with the intranet system.
As far as I¡®m concerned, these workshops should help the newcomers become adjusted to the working environment easily. In the long term, these basic skills would be the foundation for them to build up their career.
