Good morning，everyone！
With the development of science and technology, the Internet is becoming more and more popular among us. Many teenagers are crazy about computer games and some even become addicted to them and ignore their studies.
What is known to us all is that playing computer games too much does great harm to us students. First of all, sitting in front of the computer for too long is bad for our health. Secondly, once addicted，it is hard for us to focus on our lessons. Worse still, many students spend so much of their spare time on computer games that they seldom play outdoors or communicate with their parents and friends。

All in all we must limit our time spent on computer games and make good use of the Internet。

Thank you!。
