　　What are the advantages and the disadvantages of children playing computer games？

　　孩子们玩电脑游戏的好处和缺点是什么？

　　The playing of computer games is a double-edged sword.

　　On the up side， playing computer games often helps to develop kids’ team spirit. The key to winning games like Dota and World of Warcraft （WOW） is to be selfless and to watch your teammates’ backs. Kids who play computer games will have a profound experience of team spirit. Also， it is a good thing to relax with a computer game after a long day of study. It refreshes the mind for the coming days.

　　On the down side， playing computer games too often can be detrimental for both the physical and psychological well-being of kids. Exposure to screens for too long is bad for eyesight and sleep patterns. In addition， game addicts lack real life interaction with people， and there is also the widely documented rise in cyberbullying due to the hypersexualization of female characters in video games. All of these may lead to mental health problems.

　　玩电脑游戏是一把双刃剑。

　　玩电脑游戏可以培养孩子的团队精神。在像Dota和WOW这种游戏里赢的关键是要无私，要保护好你的队友，必要时候还要奶他一口。所以玩电脑游戏的孩子会有深厚的团队精神。而且，经过一天的学习，玩电脑游戏放松一下是件好事。它会使人在接下来的几天里神清气爽。

　　此外，大太久游戏的话对身心都不好。游戏成瘾者缺乏现实生活中与人的交往。同时也有很多关于网络欺凌和女性形象在电子游戏中超级“性化”的报道。所有这些都可能导致一系列心理问题的累积。
