Good computer skills are desirable in today's digital age, and playing computer games can help children improve those skills
優秀的電腦技術在現在的數字化時代很重要，玩電腦游戲能夠幫助孩子們提高一些技能
as long as they don't overdo it, scientists warn.
只要他們不沉溺于電腦游戲，科學家們警告道。
The British study involved 600 teenagers over a period of two years
一項英國的研究對六百名青少年進行了為期兩年的觀察，
and found that those who played computer games less than once a week
發現那些打電腦游戲一周少于一次的學生
achieved better grades at school than ones who played them twice a day or more often.
比那些一天打兩次或更多次的學生成績要好。
The study also found that daily use of social media did not affect school performance.
研究還發現每天使用社交媒體不會影響學生在學校的表現。
"It was clear that social media didn't have any impact.
“很明顯社交媒體沒有任何影響。
I think that's more because social media is part and parcel of every child's life.
我認為那是因為社交媒體已經變成了每個孩子生活中不可缺少的一部分。
It's the way they communicate. It's the way they keep in touch with their friends." the researchers said.
這是一種交流的方式。這是一種和他們的朋友們保持聯系的方式?！闭{查人員說道。
Parents increasingly complain of having difficulty getting their children away from computer games.
父母們越來越多得抱怨很難使孩子遠離電腦游戲。
Some even seek help for their teenagers who they say are addicted to them.
有些人甚至尋求專業幫助，希望自己沉迷其中的孩子遠離電腦游戲。
The study did not look into addiction, but suggested computer games can cause children to stay up late in the evenings,
這項英國的研究沒有研究上癮的問題，而是提出電腦游戲會導致孩子熬夜，
making them tired and less able to focus at school the next day.
這使得他們第二天上學會感到疲憊，不能集中精力。
Mark Starkey, the longtime owner of the Heart of Gaming computer game outlet in London,
馬克·斯達克是倫敦游戲之心公司的股權長期持有者，
said there is also the difference between older games and the new ones.
他表示新老游戲間存在很大差異。
"The ability to make games a lot more bigger, a lot more detailed, a lot more intricate is here now.
“新游戲更大,更為精細,而且變得越來越復雜。現在的游戲更能吸引玩家們注意力。
It is going to hold their attention longer.
花在游戲上的時間都會更長，
It is going to hold it a lot longer, because there is always wanting to progress through the story line
因為玩家總想著推進游戲的情節發展，
Oh my god, I have to see what happens next, etc.
哦，天啊，我要知道接下來會發生什么，等等。
Whereas, again, the old games challenge more your hand-eye coordination, your speed, your timing, your reactions, rather than perhaps your imagination."
然而,老游戲更多則是挑戰你的手眼協調能力，你的速度，而非你的想象。”
The games industry has long claimed there is no proven link between games and addiction.
游戲產業一直聲稱沒有證據表明游戲與成癮之間存在聯系。
But the new study says additional research is needed to establish the effect of prolific computer game-playing on performance at school.
但這項新的研究表明需要進一步研究才能了解電腦游戲對學生在校表現的影響。
