23、truments were not so convenient.Quill pensQuill pens were made from large bird feathers. Students sharpened the quills with knives and then dipped them into pots of ink to write.

38、ction(上瘾 ) is not an official diagnosis(诊断)， but studies show that 8 percent of children are affected by the condition. Questions like “Why are some games considered more addictive than others?“ and “Are attention problems in children being caused by video gaming?“ are being asked by researchers aro
39、und the world.In the meantime, video games are being played more than ever before at home, at school, in Internet caf6s, on smartphones. In fact, a 2009 survey of about 9,000 0ntario students in Grades 7 to 12 suggests that more hours of “screen time“ are logged by nearly 10 percent of high school s
40、tudents every day.Video gaming problems are often defined like gambling(赌博) addiction or alcoholism. Professor Edward Swing from Iowa State University authored a study that was published in the online journal Pediatrics and established a link between video game playing and attention problems in more
41、 than l,300 children aged eight to eleven. The findings, which were based on assessments by teachers, suggest that children who play video games for more than two hours a day, the maximum that is recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics, are l.5 to two times more likely to show attention pr

TechAddiction.ca, most people can play video games without becoming addicted, just as most adults can drink alcohol on occasion without becoming addicted. Most gamers play within healthy limits, but for jus
43、t under 10 percent of gamers who develop excessive gaming habits, levels and rewards that are achieved in the virtual world can become the first thing in life that hinders their success and development in the real world.Thirty-seven-year-old Wilson Wu, of Toronto, admits that he is “addicted“ to a r
44、ole-playing game, which is equipped with a large multi-player mode. He started playing the game at university in 1995 and now spends five to seven hours a day in virtual reality. “Coming home from work and then logging on to check email often leads to playing the game,“ explains Wu. “This usually me
45、ans I dont have time for other things like grocery shopping or cleaning the apartment.“ Researchers point out that gaming against others in a multi-player mode is more likely to devolve into compulsive behavior than playing solitary games against artificial intelligence: “You need the presence of a
46、lot of other people. This raises the question if this is really addictive behavior or compelled to be social.“Dr Bruce Ballon, head of CAMHs Adolescent Clinical and Educational Services for problem gambling, gaming and Internet use, says that his practice focuses on 16- t0 24-year-olds who show symp
47、toms, such as depression, anxiety and so on, which are often linked to too much gaming. Most of Dr Ballons cases are done with the help of parents.It is important to involve parents in the treatment process, Dr Ballon says. They need to understand that it is unpractical to tell their child, “Just do

Dr Ballon explains to parents and children that the key is to have a healthy relationship with the virtual world.59.
