become more intelligent. Playing games also helps him to relax after a stressful day. He 
rarely plays games on a console though, as he prefers to use a keyboard and mouse. 
B. However, my sister is very different. She hates to play first-person-shooters and instead, 
she prefers to spend time playing simulation games like The Sims or role-play games like 
Dragon Age. She loves the stories in role-playing games and will usually play the games 
several times through so she can explore it completely. She is at university now and often 
works very hard during the work on her studies, so at the weekend she can usually be 
found on her computer relaxing. She has been playing The Sims, her favourite game for 
fourteen years now, since she was 4 years old! 
C. David, my brother, is very similar to my Dad and sister in the games he likes. He enjoys 
playing different kinds of computer games and he can usually be found with his laptop 
playing games. He is very lazy though and never does his college homework. He says 
that if he becomes one of the best gamers, he can earn a lot of money. He plays an online 
game called League of Legends and works with other people in tournaments. He has not 
won any money yet, though. 
D. Like my dad, sister and brother, I also love to play video games. I play many different 
types of games but my favourite is role-play. I, like my sister, love the stories in the 
games. I remember when I was a child, I used to sit beside my dad and watch him play 
games after work. This is one of my favourite childhood memories. Nowadays, I do not 
get a lot of time to play because I have a baby daughter. In the future, I hope to share my 
love of video games with her. However, for now, I only get to play video games in the 
evening if she goes to bed early, which rarely ever happens these days!
