Lots of kids love video games. In fact, they like them so much that they might hear something like this from mom or dad: “Enough! Stop and find something else to do!”

It can be good advice. Studies show that video games can be good for hand-eye skills, problem-solving(解决问题的) skills, and the mind’s ability(能力). But too much video game playing can cause health problems.

It’s hard to get enough active play and exercise if you’re always inside playing video games. And without enough exercise, kids can become overweight.

Really too much video games playing also can be bad for kids’ friendship and school grades.

But here’s the good news, playing games some of the time can be OK. Just for no more than 1 or 2 hours a week and choose good games.

What’s a good game? That depends on how old you are. Your mom or dad can help choose some which is good for you. If you can choose one to make yourself better and make progress(进步), that’s even better.

As a teenager(青少年), you might challenge(挑战) your mom, dad — or even your grandma — to play with them or try some cartoons. By doing so, you can improve(提高) friendship with them and even make them feel good. But most teenagers dislike to do so. They prefer to play alone or with friends. But to be honesty(坦白说), this really makes a great difference.

There’s a lot of discussion(讨论) these days about video games. Parents and teachers want to know how to help kids to choose good games.

1.Studies show that for kids video games are ________.

A.harmful B.helpful C.tiring D.necessary

2.It’s ________ for school children to play too many video games.

A.good B.friendly C.bad D.lonely

Smart phones with cameras that can take selfies (自拍) have become popular. We can now take every moment of our life and then share it with the world through the Internet. However, some believe that taking a selfie is causing people to take risks that something causing people to take risks that something cause death!

Though the problem of taking selfies has been known for a while, it became worse and had to be dealt with on September 21st following the death of Frank, who was trying to take a selfie with his friends when they fell off some stairs. His friend only broke his leg while Frank died from the accident. It was reported that three Indian students were run over(碾压) by a passing train while they were taking a selfie on the railway tracks.

More and more selfie-connected accidents are forcing some governments to deal with the problem. In July, the Russian Interior Ministry began a program which didn't allow visitors to use the selfie stick(自拍杆). Many museums and theme parks haven't allowed visitors to use the selfie stick, either.

Although official ways may help reduce the accidents, the only way to stop selfie-connected accidents is that everyone takes them seriously. So when you decide to take a selfie that appears dangerous, be sure to stop.

“Make-A-Wish” is one of the world's most well-known charities. It makes wishes come true for children who have serious illnesses. It gives them hope and joy and helps them forget about their health problems and have fun.

It all started in 1980 in phoenix, Arizona(亚利桑那州). Christopher was a 7-year-old boy who was very sick. He always dreamed of becoming a police officer. Tommy Austin and Ron Cox, two police officers, made his wish come true. They gave Christopher a tour of the city in a police helicopter(直升飞机) and made a real police uniform for him.

There are four kinds of wishes children usually have:

(1) I wish to go. Children usually want to travel or go to a concert, a game or a park.

(2) I wish to meet. Children sometimes want to meet their favorite actors, singers or players.

(3) I wish to be. Some children wish to become actors, singers or police officers.

(4) I wish to have. They often want to have a computer, a game, a bike or many other things.

Let's hope more wishes will come true in the future. People who work in the charity always try for the best. Almost 25,000 volunteers help, work or give money. Will you be one of them?
