There are worries that children are becoming more violent and aggressive after prolonged exposure to these games. Playing computer games involves feelings of intense frustration and anger which often expresses itself in aggressive 'yells' at the screen. It is not only the'Beat-them-up' games which produce this aggression; platform games are just as frustrating when the characters lose all their'lives' and'die' just before the end of the level is reached.

When the player loses and the words'Game over' appear on the screen, there is annoyance and frustration at being beaten by the computer and at having made an error. This anger and aggression could perhaps be compared to the aggression felt when playing football and you take your eye off the ball and enable the opposition to score. The annoyance experienced when defeated at a computer game is what makes gaming'addictive': the player is determined not to make the same mistake again and to have'one last go' in the hope of doing better next time.Some of the concern over the violence of computer games has been about children who are unable to tell the difference between fiction and reality and who act out the violent moves of the games in fight on the playground. The problem with video games is that they involve children more than television or films and this means there are more implications for their social behavior.

题目解答
答案
参考答案：A
解析
考查要点：本题主要考查学生对文章主旨的把握能力，需要通过分析文章内容确定其核心主题。
解题思路：
- 定位关键段落：文章首段明确指出讨论焦点是“computer games' content and its impact on children”，后续段落围绕游戏类型（Platformers和Beat-them-ups）及其引发的暴力、攻击性行为展开。
- 排除干扰选项：选项B、C、D均偏离文章核心，文章未涉及游戏类型对比（B）、情绪控制方法（C）或时间管理（D）。
- 锁定核心主题：文章始终围绕“游戏内容如何影响儿童暴力倾向”展开，与选项A直接对应。
选项分析
A．How does playing computer games affect the level of violence in children
- 核心匹配：文章多次提及游戏的暴力内容（如Beat-them-ups）对儿童攻击性行为的影响，例如“concern over their violent content”“make children aggressive”。
- 结论支持：最后一段明确指出“Playing these games can lead to anti-social behavior, make children aggressive and affect their emotional stability”，直接呼应选项A。
B．There is no difference between Platform games and 'Beat-Them-Ups'
- 错误原因：文章虽对比两类游戏，但强调它们的不同影响（平台游戏引发挫败感，Beat-them-ups直接涉及暴力），选项B与文意矛盾。
C．How to control anger while playing computer games
- 错误原因：文章仅描述游戏引发的情绪问题（如“anger”“aggressive yells”），未提供任何情绪管理方法。
D．How to make children spend less time on computer games
- 错误原因：文章未涉及时间管理建议，重点在内容影响而非“使用时间”。
