9.题目: Some people regard video games as harmless fun , or even as a useful educational tool . Others , however , believe that videos games are having an adverse effect on the people who play them . In your opinion , do the drawbacks of video games outweigh the benefits ?
范文:
Many people , and children in particular , enjoy playing computer games . While I accept that these games can sometimes have a positive effect on the user , I believe that thev are more likely to have a harmful impact .
On the one hand , video games can be both entertaining and educational . Users , or gamers , are transported into virtual worlds which are often more exciting and engaging than real - life pastimes . From an educational perspective , these games encourage imagination and creativity , as well as concentration , logical thinking and problem solving , all of which are useful skills outside the gaming context . Furthermore , it has been shown that coputer simulation games can improve users ' motor skills and help to prepare them for real - world tasks , such as flying a plane .
However , I would argue that these benefits are outweighed by the drawbacks . Gaming can be highly addictive because users are constantly given scores , new targets and frequent rewards to keep them playing . Many children now spend hours each day trying to progress through the levels of a game or to get a higher score than their friends . This type of addiction can have effects ranging from lack of sleep to problems at school , when homework is sacrificed for a ew more hours on the computer or console . The rise in obesity in recent years has also been linked in part to the sedentary lifestyle and lack of exercise that often accompany gaming addiction .
In conclusion , it seems to me that the potential dangers of video games are more significant than the possible benefits .
