The impact of online games on college students
As is showed vividly in the picture, a college student is drawn into a whirlpool of addiction to online games and abandons his study totally. The picture reveals a serious problem that nowadays many college students indulge themselves in playing online games and tells us how harmful playing too much online games is. First, online games gravely distract students' attention from their study, which may lead to neglecting their study and then affect their future. Second, these games endanger the students' health. Sitting in front of the computer and staring at the screen for hours on end do harm to students' eyesight as well as their mental condition. Third, online games are likely to deteriorate students' moral values. Since many online games are about violence, students may unconsciously accept the false principles and values in the games and believe that violence is a good way to settle disagreements. As college students, we should be fully aware of the harmfulness of online games. And instead of wasting time on these games, we should make full use of our valuable college years to learn as much as we can.
