Read the following paragraph and complete it with one suitable word. Millions of teenagers enjoy (1) video games. Some play them at home. Others play them in arcades. These games are good fun (2) players must be careful. Teenagers should not spend much time on these games (3) they can become tired, dizzy and even obese. If they use computer too much, they won’t have time for their families and friends. People who are addicted to computer games don’t like to join any clubs or plays any sports. They like (4) in front of the computer all the time. One doctor says, “ This is very bad for your people. They must take part in activities with others. All young people should play outdoors and develop their social skills. They should be with people of their own age. They should spend only a small part of their time playing video (5) .They mustn’t forget to do other things too.

(1) playing

(2) but

(3) because

(4) staying / sitting

(5) games

Explanation:

(1) We need a verb here. What can teenagers do to video games? They can play them.

(2) The sentence shows a shift between games being fun to players needing to be careful. A transitional word like but fits perfectly here.

(3) We have a claim, followed by reasoning. The transition word because is best here.

(4) Honestly any verb would work here, staying or sitting is best in my opinion.

(5) This is a no brainer. The topic of the paragraph is video games.

Hope this helps!

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
