Exercise 4:
Topic 1: Some students tend to play computer games rather than do
sports. Why is this?
Nowadays, some students prefer playing computer games to doing
sports. Firstly, online games are being made to be captivating and
amusing day by day. Because of this, students are effortlessly
attracted by the graphics and the effects involved. When they
become addicted to virtual games, they obviously do not want to go
outside and do exercises. Secondly, sport doesn’t use at an important
function regularly in some countries’ schools. For examples,
Vietnamese schools only have two lessons for physical education a
week. Their schedule mainly concentrates on other subjects such as
Literature, Maths and English. Although there are just a few sport
lessons, some students seems not to be joyful. In another word,
when the P.E class starts, they ignore all the activities and take their
smartphones to play games. Moreover, most teenagers today have
inconsequential body-clocks. This reason leads to laziness, which can
not exist while doing exercises. In conclusion, computer games are
not harmful at all, but young generation should adjust their schedule
equally to have a great deal of time doing sports.
