With the rapid development of technology, we use the computer every day for work and play. We surf the internet for information and read the news online. We also play games and watch videos on the computer.
Many people see the computer as a daily necessity. They think they cannot last a single day without the computer. People are addicted to the computer and this is a serious problem.
We should exercise self-control. We should not always be using the computer. Otherwise, we will become Hikikomori. Hikikomori is a Japanese term referring to the phenomenon under which people withdraw from social life. It also refers to people who suffer hikikomori. Such people only want to stay home to play games. They do not want to go out and are afraid of talking to others.
We should lead a healthy lifestyle, and strike a balance between using computers and maintaining a social life.
