Dear Diana,

How are you? I am writing from London, where I am staying for a month in a language school. I go to English class every day from 9 to 12, and then I am studying in the afternoon for 3 hours. There are 20 students from all over the world in the class, and I make new friends every day. I am also taking drama classes in the evening and it's very exciting.

The city is great. I have a wonderful time with some Spanish friends, Ramon and Julia. They attend the same school, but only 3days a week.

Do you enjoy your holidays in France?

Lots of love

Maria

Interviewer: Dr Harper, are you worried about the popularity of video games with teenagers today?

Dr Harper: A little, yes. If people play video games for just a couple of hours a week, there's no problem. But when they need to play them every day for hours, this is an addiction. It's one thing to like playing them, another to need playing them.

Interviewer: So what are the sings of an addiction?

Dr Harper: If a person stops to go out with friends, this is an important sing. Look for a person who wants to spend a lot of time alone and who likes staying at home at all day. Another problem is when a person can't to concentrate. Look for students who stop to listen in class, who start getting physically agitated and restless quickly. Obviously their homework and grades generally suffer too.

Interviewer: What other sings are there?

Dr Harper: People tend to eat badly. They try to get away from the table quickly. They don't play attention when you speak to them and have difficulty to make conversation.

Interviewer: What do you advise family and friends to do if they suspect an addiction?

Dr Harper: I suggest to talk to he person about it, and trying to make them see the problem. If this doesn't work, I advise the family to make an appointment with an expert who can evaluate the situation.
