We know from rafts of research that isolation is bad for us. It's associated with a clutch of diseases including depression, high blood pressure and heart disease. And yet teenagers pursue isolation, not in the sense of having no family or friends, but in the sense of walling themselves off from real social contact. 从大量的研究中我们得知:孤独对我们是不利的。孤独与一系列疾病相关,包括抑郁症、高血压和心脏疾病。但青少年却追求孤独,这里指的并不是没有家庭或朋友,而是指他们试图脱离真正的社会接触。 And what do teenagers use to build those walls? They use the device of our times - a screen. Screens of all kinds. In whatever form, screens are addictive. And addictive from an early age. Research has shown that given the chance, six-month-old babies prefer screens to real human faces. 青少年又是如何建起这道心墙的呢?他们使用了我们这个时代的设备--一个屏幕。各种各样的屏幕。不管是何种形式,屏幕都会让他们上瘾。而且很小的时候就会上瘾。研究已表明:如果有机会,6个月大的宝宝都会选择屏幕而不是真正的人脸。 |
