For years video games have been criticised for making people more antisocial, overweight or depressed. Bui now researchers are finding that video games can actually change us for the better and improve both our body and mind.
Games can help to develop physical skills. Pre-school children who played interactive games have been shown to have improved motor skills, for example they can kick, catch and throw a ball better than children who don’t play video games. A study found that those who played video games were 27 percent faster and made 37 percent fewer errors than those who didn't.
Games also benefit a variety of brain functions, including decision-making. People who play action-based games make decisions 25 percent faster than others, according to one study. It was also found that the best gamers can make choices and act on them up to six times a second, four times faster than most people. In another study by researchers from the University of Rochester in New York, experienced gamers were shown to be able to pay attention to more than six things at once without getting confused, compared with the four that most people can normally keep in mind.
There is also evidence that gaming can help with psychological problems. At the University of Auckland in New Zealand, researchers asked 94 young people diagnosed with depression to play a 3D fantasy game called SPARX and in many cases, the game reduced symptoms of depression more than conventional treatment. 4.

阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项
___16___While these compulsive(无法控制的 actions may appear to be irrational or pointless, and may even result in negative consequences, the individual experiencing the compulsion feels unable to stop him or herself.
The compulsive behavior can be a physical act, like hand washing, or a mental activity, like counting objects. When an otherwise harmless behavior becomes so consuming that it negatively impacts oneself or others, it may be a symptom of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD(强迫症.
___17___The former is an overwhelming desire to do something, while an addiction is a physical or chemical dependence on a substance or behavior. People with addictions will continue their addictive behavior, even when they understand that doing so is harmful to themselves and others.___18___
Unlike compulsions and addictions, which are acted out uncontrollably, habits are actions that are repeated regularly and automatically.
Habits typically develop over time through a natural process called “habituation,” during which repetitive actions that must be consciously initiated eventually become subconscious and are carried out habitually.
While there are good habits and bad, unhealthy habits, any habit can become a compulsion or even an
addiction.___19___For example, the good habit of exercising regularly can become an unhealthy compulsion or addiction when done to excess.
Common habits often develop into addictions when they result in a chemical dependency, as in the cases of smoking. The habit of having a glass of beer with dinner, for example, becomes an addiction when the desire to drink turns into a physical or emotional need to drink.
___20___While we can choose to add good healthy habits to our routines, we can also choose to break old harmful habits.
A A compulsion is different from an addiction.
B. It currently affects about 1 in 40 adults and 1 in 100 children in theU.S. C. Some of these behaviors are visible actions while others are mental behaviors. D. In other words, you really can have “too much of a good thing.”
E. Compulsive behaviors are actions that a person feels “compelled” or driven to do over and over again. F. Alcoholism, smoking,and gambling are perhaps the most common examples of addictions.
G. Of course, the key difference between a compulsive behavior and a habit is the ability to choose to do them or not.
