3a. Listen and read along the e-mails Jane and Mary were ex-changing. Answer the questions: What can be addictive? What is physical addiction? What is psychological addiction?

1. Mary, I am afraid what you said might be true. What shall I do?

2. Jane, you cannot really help some-one who has an addiction. That person has to help himself. All you can do is show that you care, tell those adults you trust about the problem, and be ready to praise every small step taken to stop the addiction.

3. Mary, I decided to talk to my parents first but I want to know more about the problem before I do it.

4. You are right, Jane, but don’t wait too long, as the longer you wait the more difficult it may be to sort it out. I atta-ched the information you might find useful.

Types of addiction

There are two types of addiction.

1.Physical addiction is when a person’s body becomes de-pendent on something and wants more and more of whatever it is to be able to feel OK. Trying to give up can make that per-son suffer withdrawal [wɪˈdrɔːəl] symptoms¹ which can last for quite a long time, but slowly the body gets used to doing without.

These withdrawal symptoms can feel like a really bad flu that they want to go back to whatever they were taking to feel OK again. It is much easier not to start.

2.Psychological [ˌsaɪkəˈlɒdʒɪk(ə)l] addiction is when some-one wants something which will change their mood or feelings. They may not get physical withdrawal symptoms, but they may feel lonely or depressed if they can’t get the thing that they want.

3.What can be addictive?

People can become addicted to a wide range of things

• drugs – legal and illegal,

• alcohol,

• tobacco,

• sniffing glue or petrol (бензин).

But people can also become addicted to behaviours, which take over their lives.

Among others, teenagers often become gamers and spend too much time at their computers, video games, mobiles and SMS, and chatting on the Internet. All these problems look less dangerous than drug addiction but they are also very harmful.

Keep yourself safe by:

• asking smokers not to smoke near you as passive smoking is also dangerous,

• avoiding being around someone who is addicted to alcohol or drugs,

• telling someone if you feel unsafe,

• never trying whatever drug somebody is using,

• not making the mistake of thinking what that person is doing must be cool because they are older than you.

3b. Read the e-mails again and decide what information you would use to talk to someone who you think might be addicted. Work in pairs.

Что такое физическая зависимость?

Физическая зависимость — это когда тело человека становится зависимым от чего-либо и требует всё больше и больше этого, чтобы чувствовать себя нормально. Попытка отказаться может вызвать у человека симптомы абстиненции (ломки).
