Playing video games can be a fun way to relax or spend time with friends. In some schools, teachers use games like Minecraft to encourage teamwork and communication.

Mental health experts have taken notice of this problem. The WHO added game disorder (障礙) to its list of health condition.

Then what makes video games addictive? Here is the answer. Playing video games makes players excited. After a while, the players become numb (麻木的).Then they lose control of themselves, so they play even more. Clifford says that players should take at least an-hour-long break after playing video games for an hour. Their brains need time to recover. Clifford advises young players should answer a simple question: “Are you in control, or is the game in control?”

It has been quite a long time since people3.(start) to use online expressions. Some common expressions of laughter include LOL, meaning laughing out loud, and ROFL, rolli ng on the floor laughing. You can see the influence4. these expressions everywhere. LOL5.(include) in Oxford English Dictionary in 2011.

In fact, most languages follow the rule that they have similar sounds. Sometimes, numbers or 6.
