![“Mom, I would greatly benefit from the newest version of Call of
Duty because it will help improve my fine motor and decision
making skills. In the most recent version of Gamer magazine,
experts state ‘[Call of Duty] improves hand/eye coordination’
(Gamer 15). Enemies jump out to surprise the player, causing the
player’s eyes and hands to work together faster. This form of
exercise will especially help me when I’m driving. And despite
arguments to the contrary, Call of Duty has proven helpful in
‘real time strategizing’ (Gamer 17). Though some might call the
game mind-numbing, the quick decisions the player must make
creates an agile mind that thinks in multiple ways all at once.
This fast-paced training will help me make better decisions
quicker and help me on tests. With these facts in mind, one must
conclude the value of improved fine motor and decision making
skills is compelling, and therefore, you should buy the video
game for my betterment.”](https://image.slidesharecdn.com/howtowritean8sentenceparagraph-140824173409-phpapp01/85/How-to-write-an-8-sentence-paragraph-11-320.jpg)
