作为朋友, 请你写一封信, 劝告他远离电脑游戏, 回归正常生活

【答案】

Dear John,

How are you doing recently? You failed the English test this week again, which made me deeply worried about you. I know how attractive the online games are and I also know it isn’t easy to break away from a habit, but it is high time that you took action and got rid of it.

You can’t deny the fact that online games do harm to us adolescents. Firstly, playing online games does damage to your health. For example, watching the screen for a long time is bad for your eyes. Secondly, your academic performance will suffer from online games. Due to a lack of self-control, you’ve got addicted to it. As a result, you can’t focus your attention in class, which accounts for your failure in exams.

Here is some advice for you and I hope you’ll find it helpful. First of all, make a plan to quit and stick to it. Each time you feel like playing online games, do something else instead, like listening to music or doing sports with your friends. Secondly, reward yourself with any progress you make. It is also a good choice to turn to others for help if necessary.

As the saying goes, nothing is impossible for a willing heart. I'm confident that you can break the bad habit.

Best wishes.

Yours,

Li Yue
