relevant issues
Playing physical education teachers is more about life. Competitive sports teach people more life experiences?
The author holds that competitive sports is one of the important ways to accumulate life experience, but it is not the only way.
Thinking expansion
Life experience also includes housework management ability, crisis handling ability, self-decision-making ability and self-protection consciousness, which are not spread by competitive sports. For example, I studied in the United States and lived in a host family. I learned how to communicate with people around me and also exercised my crisis management and self-decision-making ability.
② Competitive sports can also help people accumulate wisdom and experience in life. Specifically, the unremitting pursuit of perfection, team spirit, sense of cooperation, sense of competition, etc. These can be transmitted through competitive sports.

The first paragraph background introduction+controversy focus+writer's position
At present, the awareness of healthy lifestyle makes more and more people pay more attention to physical exercise. Many people like to watch various sports games or participate in various sports activities. However, for many years, people have been debating whether sports events can help people gain more knowledge about life. In my opinion, sports activities can greatly contribute to enriching one's world experience in some aspects, but not in all fields.
The second paragraph supports the author's position for the first time.
First of all, not all life experiences can be learned from sports events, and life experiences still come from many other channels. One possible way is to travel. More precisely, people may be tempted to buy some fake or unqualified goods during the travel organized by travel agencies, thus falling into various consumption traps. However, a person's self-protection ability will be strengthened after an unpleasant and painful experience.
Three paragraphs support the writer's position for the second time.
This debate reminds me of my own story. Another important ability that everyone must learn is the ability of housework management. Studying abroad is an effective way for these young people to develop and cultivate this ability. During the summer vacation of 20 15, I lived in a host family in the United States, and I had to deal with many arduous tasks by myself, such as cleaning my room, washing clothes or cooking. In fact, this experience has greatly honed my adaptability and viability.
Rationality of the original view of four-stage concession
Sure enough, I have to admit that I can gain rich life experience, wisdom and philosophy by participating in sports activities. After all, every sports event has its own charm. Take basketball as an example, everyone from spectators to athletes can benefit from the sportsmanship they show or appreciate, such as team spirit, cooperation and indomitable spirit. In addition, sports help people develop useful collective skills, such as coordination and strategy. These skills will help them in their later life and career. In the end, continuous efforts after each failure in sports competitions will inspire people to face new challenges bravely. However, I want to refute that there are still wisdom or lessons that cannot be gained from sports events.
The last paragraph highlights the point again.
Finally, I reiterate my belief that although sports competition can enable us to gain life experience, it is not the only way. Traveling or living alone and many other ways still play an important role in teaching life lessons.

brainstorming
We have entered the wireless Internet era from the Internet era. Mobile games have become one of the important ways for young people to have fun. The game is a double-edged sword. For players, while relaxing, it also delays valuable time and affects their study and work. However, we can't give up eating because of choking.

Although games may bring some disadvantages to students, as long as they can arrange and control their own game time reasonably, there is no need to stop them from playing games.

1 Benefits of encouraging children to play games
Colorful game programs have become an effective way for many students to relieve stress and release emotions. Imagine that children study hard at school, attend cram schools after class, have heavy homework and have little time for entertainment. Playing games can make students temporarily forget the troubles and pressures in real life.
② Some competitive games actually train players' reaction ability and layout ability. Therefore, student players will also cultivate various abilities, such as hand-eye use, crisis management, teamwork and so on.
③ Some game designs are mainly based on learning, entertaining and entertaining, so that players can learn knowledge in entertainment, which can also improve learning efficiency and stimulate learning enthusiasm.
2 The disadvantages of encouraging children to play games
The main task of students is to learn knowledge. Considering children's poor self-discipline, it is easy for children to be distracted and delay their study.
Overindulgence in games is harmful to health. Specifically, players will lose their eyesight, develop a lazy and sedentary lifestyle, and are unwilling to engage in outdoor sports, which will lead to obesity. However, outdoor exercise is a better way to relax and improve learning efficiency.
③ The game content unsuitable for children is spiritual opium. Violent, pornographic and bloody information poisons the minds of growing teenagers, misleads their outlook on life, induces violent impulses, and leads to the rise of crimes in school bullying or among teenagers, which may be harmful to society.

Like many other popular recreational activities, computer games are regarded as a waste of time by many parents. However, video games do have a special charm for many people-young players. Perhaps this is why people have great differences on whether students should be allowed to play video games.

As long as we are willing to arrange and control students' game time, there is no need to stop them from playing games. I think it is unnecessary to prevent students from playing games as long as they can arrange and control their own game time reasonably.
The disadvantages of encouraging children to play games
Admittedly, if students are too addicted to computer games, some problems will always follow. First of all, violent video games are always accused by the media as the reason why some young players become aggressive and even make some anti-social behaviors. In addition, the enthusiasm for games is harmful to health, because players tend to reduce physical activity, so a sedentary lifestyle will increase the possibility of obesity. In the end, many parents are worried that this research will be postponed. The only task of students is to update their knowledge. If young people can't make use of their precious youth, they will regret it all their lives.

Three paragraphs about encouraging children to play games.
However, there is no reason to throw the child away with the bath. On the positive side, students can still be the beneficiaries of computer games as long as they can play them in the right way. Initially, some psychological skills of video game training include: quick response, teamwork strategy, crisis resolution ability, hand-eye coordination and so on. This goal-driven experience will have a positive impact on the future life of players. In addition, proper play time can help teenagers to alleviate the pressure brought by intense studies to some extent. It is conceivable that if a person can vent his or her negative emotions, learning efficiency can be improved. Finally, some learning games can still promote students' learning, which is a good thing if players can acquire knowledge in a relaxed way.
