　　参考范文：
　　TV and computers are indispensable devices in every household. Inevitably, children are exposed to excessive use of such equipment. Certain individuals claim that the phenomenon causes detrimental effects on children’s mental growth, and I tend to agree with their opinion.
　　It is clear that children’s overuse of electronic devices can cause some mental health problems including depression, anxiety, mood disorders and suicidality. This is because children can become overstimulated from screen time without realizing it, which leads to worse moods, more anxiety, and higher levels of irritability. For example, children frequently attempt to reach out for support or validation on video games; when they do not get the feedback they are looking for, however, their stress levels increase and their risk of depression rises. Fear of missing out on what others are saying and doing online also drives up stress and anxiety levels.
　　However, popular science TV programs and puzzle games are beneficial to students’ intelligence development and boost their academic success to some extent. To begin with, watching science shows at home helps children understand the daily relevance of science to their lives, the depth and breadth of science as a field of inquiry, and what it might be like to choose to do science in the world, either as a professional or a citizen scientist. Additionally, completing a puzzle, even the simplest of puzzles, sets a single goal to achieve. Toddlers and children must think and develop strategies in achieving this goal. This process involves problem solving, reasoning skills and developing solutions which can later be transferred into their personal life.
　　In conclusion, spending too much screen time leads to mental problems in children, but appropriate time can be spent to watch scientific programs and play some puzzle games to facilitate their mental growth.
