Question

    Lots of kids love video games. In fact, they like them so much that they might hear something like this from mom or dad: “Enough! Stop and find something else to do!”

It can be good advice. Studies show that video games can be good for hand-eye skills, problem-solving(解决问题的) skills, and the mind’s ability(能力). But too much video game playing can cause health problems.

It’s hard to get enough active play and exercise if you’re always inside playing video games. And without enough exercise, kids can become overweight.

Really too much video games playing also can be bad for kids’ friendship and school grades.

But here’s the good news, playing games some of the time can be OK. Just for no more than 1 or 2 hours a week and choose good games.

What’s a good game? That depends on how old you are. Your mom or dad can help choose some which is good for you. If you can choose one to make yourself better and make progress(进步), that’s even better.

As a teenager(青少年), you might challenge(挑战) your mom, dad — or even your grandma — to play with them or try some cartoons. By doing so, you can improve(提高) friendship with them and even make them feel good. But most teenagers dislike to do so. They prefer to play alone or with friends. But to be honesty(坦白说), this really makes a great difference.

There’s a lot of discussion(讨论) these days about video games. Parents and teachers want to know how to help kids to choose good games.

A.harmful B.helpful C.tiring D.necessary
