 The Australian government(政府)has built the longest fence(篱笆)in the world. It is 9, 500 kilometres long, and two hundred men look after it. They drive along it and repair it every day. Sand blows against it and covers it. Sand blows away from it and leaves holes under it. Rabbits make holes through it. These holes are dangerous. The men have to repair them immediately. If they do not, the dingoes will get in. Dingoes are wild dogs. They are the fiercest (最凶猛) killers in Australia. Wild animals usually kill for food--but dingoes kill for pleasure, too. One dingo can easily kill 100 sheep in a night. Dingoes killed 600,000 sheep in Queensland in eleven years. Those sheep were worth $2,000,000. The farmers were angry, but they could not stop the dingoes. The problem was too big for the farmers to solve. So the government agreed to build the fence. Why?

    Once my teacher asked me, "What do you think of computer games?" I thought for a while and answered, "They are good and all right". However, more and more young people spend too much time on them. So most of the parents and teachers don't like them. But I think there is nothing wrong with computer games themselves.

First of all, we must admit (承认) that computer games make our life more interesting and colorful. They add excitement to our life. Secondly, they have some advantages such as enriching(使丰富) our imagination, improving our concentration and extending our mind.

Everything has its limit(界限). If you go beyond the limit, it'll be another situation. Believe it or not, computer games can be your enemy if you lose control(控制) of yourself. That's why some people are deeply influenced while others are not. As we can see, to play or not to play, that is the question.

1. What did the writer think of computer games before?

_____________________________________________________________

2. Why don't most of the parents and teachers like computer games?
