　　Dear editor ,

　　At present , many high school students are addicted to buying lottery tickets and they seem to have good reasons . However , I’d like to talk about my views on the phenomenon.

　　In my opinion , its disadvantages are far more than its advantages, despite one of their reasons that they can do something useful for society in this way . High school students can’t support themselves financially but depend on their parents for the moment. Thus, in order to collect money with which to buy lottery tickets, they may try every possible means , even commit crimes .

　　In addition, if they put their minds on lottery tickets, their lessons will be more or less affected. And in the long run, lottery ticket purchasing may contribute to their wrong understanding that there must be a shortcut to every destination , which will surely do great harm to their future life.

　　Therefore, I think it is necessary for them to keep away from lottery stations and concentrate on their studies for now.

　　Yours ,

　　Li Hua
