Open F2F Class Notes 27th October (Jesse)

Corrections


I never play online games because it is not too much time for me and not too much power to let me think about how to play it. But online games became the most popular style of entertainments for young people. Many young people spend a lot of time to enjoy their games even all days without sleeping (stay up later). Actually, they play games online with their friends or unknown persons to make them forget reality for the moment. But when the games finished some people will be difficult to face reality for long time. More and more games are hard and need more technologies to play. In fact the games make us smarter and brighter. Especially games can avoid old people to be fool. But young people need to be careful about illegal games online and should be arrange time themselves.

I never play online games because I don’t have enough time and don’t have enough energy to think about how to play them. But online games have become the most popular style of entertainment for young people. Many young people spend a lot of time to enjoy their games even all day / 24 hours of the day without sleeping. Actually, they play games online with their friends or random people (strangers) to make them zone out for the moment. But when the games finish / end / are over it is difficult to face reality for some people for a long time. More and more games are hard and need more technology to play. In fact the games make us smarter and brighter. Especially games can avoid old people to become senile / can help the elderly to maintain their mental ability. But young people need to be careful about illegal games online and should arrange their time better.
