"Tom? Are you in bed yet?" called Mrs. White. There was no answer. Mrs. White put down her book and went to her 14-year-old son's room. Tom was sitting in front of a bright computer screen on which a motorbike was running fast.

"Oh, Tom. You're still playing on that computer game. You must stop now, because it's half past eleven. If you don't go to bed soon, you'll be very tired tomorrow." said Mrs. White.
