美國50%的青少年存在手機成癮問題

　　I don’t have teenagers yet, but watching my 8- and 10-year-olds spend endless amounts of time on iPads during spring break makes me worried about the day -- hopefully years from now -- when they have their own devices.

　　我家現(xiàn)在還沒有青少年，但是看到我一個8歲和一個10歲的孩子在春假時無止盡的沉迷在平板電腦里，我非常擔心。當他們有了自己的智能設備后，這本該是充滿希望的一年。

　　A new poll that confirms just how much teens depend on their phones gives me even more to worry about.

　　一項新的調查顯示出青少年們有多依賴他們的手機，這更加重了我的擔憂。

　　Fifty percent of teens feel they are addicted to their mobile devices, according to the poll, which was conducted for Common Sense Media, a nonprofit focused on helping children, parents, teachers and policymakers negotiate media and technology. A larger number of parents, 59%, said their teens were addicted. The poll involved 1,240 interviews with parents and their children, ages 12 to 18.

　　這項由專注于幫助兒童、父母、老師和決策者與媒體和科技協(xié)調的非盈利性組織“常識媒體”進行的調查結果顯示，50%的青少年承認他們對智能設備成癮。而對家長的調查結果顯示，59%的家長都認為他們的孩子依賴智能設備。這項調查的對象是1240名家長和12歲到18歲之間的孩子。

　　Whether it is an addiction or not, two-thirds of parents -- 66% -- feel their teens spend too much time on their mobile devices, and 52% of teens agree, according to the poll.

　　不管是否成癮，據(jù)調查，2/3的家長——約66%認為他們的孩子浪費了太多的時間在智能設備上，約有52%的青少年同意此觀點。

　　Nearly 80% of teens in the new survey said they checked their phones hourly, and 72% said they felt the need to immediately respond to texts and social networking messages. Thirty-six percent of parents said they argued with their child daily about device use, and 77% of parents feel their children get distracted by their devices and don’t pay attention when they are together at least a few times per week.

　　在這項調查中，將近80%的青少年說他們每小時都要查看一次手機，而72%的人認為有必要立即回復信息。36%的家長說每天都會因使用手機發(fā)生爭執(zhí)。77%的家長認為孩子因使用手機而被分散了注意力，不太重視他們每周僅有的幾次相聚時間。

　　There are signs that some teens may be getting that message and realize too much time on their devices isn’t necessarily a good thing. More than one-third of teens, 37%, said they very often or occasionally try to cut down the amount of time they spend on their devices, the Common Sense Media poll found.

　　有跡象表明，一些青少年意識到這個問題，知道自己對智能設備成癮并不是一件好事。超過1/3，約有37%的人認為他們經(jīng)�；蛘吲紶栆苍鴩L試減少他們花在智能設備上的時間。據(jù)常識媒體的調查結果。

　　Parents might complain about the amount of time their teens spend on their phones, but they admit they have their own difficulties when it comes to unplugging.

　　家長們可能會抱怨孩子們太過浪費時間在手機上，然而，他們承認，即使是大人也同樣對手機上癮。

　　Twenty-seven percent of parents feel they are addicted to their mobile devices, while nearly the same number of teens, 28%, believe their parents are addicted, according to the poll.

　　據(jù)調查結果，28%的家長感到自己對手機成癮，而同樣比例的孩子們也認為如此。
