Put Down Your Smartphone

It is often said that smartphones have made our lives easier.Thanks to these handy devices,we can take our work with us anywhere.However,this isn’t necessarily a good thing.

A recent survey found that two-thirds of officeworkers continued to work on their smartphones outside office hours.These so-called“screen slaves”are glued to their smartphones on the way home and at home.This can lead to health problems.For example,using a smartphone on the train or sofa can cause back and neck pain.What’s more,looking at a small screen for a long time can cause vision problems.

In Taiwan,there was even a man who lost the use of his index finger because he played games on his smartphone for up to six hours a day.People who use their smartphones too often also complain of headaches,increased stress,and losing sleep at night.So perhaps we need to learn to be less dependent on our smartphones,and put them down once in a while.

參考譯文

人們常說(shuō)智能型手機(jī)令我們的生活更方便。由于這些便利的裝置，我們可以帶著工作到處走。然而，這不見(jiàn)得是件好事。

一份近來(lái)的研究發(fā)現(xiàn)：三分之二的上班族在下班時(shí)間繼續(xù)使用智能型手機(jī)工作。這些所謂的「屏幕奴隸」在回家途中及回家后都黏在他們的智能型手機(jī)前。這可能會(huì)導(dǎo)致健康問(wèn)題，例如：在火車或沙發(fā)上使用手機(jī)可能造成背部和頸部疼痛。更甚者，長(zhǎng)時(shí)間看著屏幕可能造成視力問(wèn)題。

在臺(tái)灣，甚至有人因?yàn)槊刻煊弥悄苄褪謾C(jī)玩游戲長(zhǎng)達(dá)六小時(shí)，而食指失去功能。太常使用智能型手機(jī)的人也抱怨頭痛、壓力加大，并且有失眠等癥狀。所以我們或許要學(xué)習(xí)減少依賴智能型手機(jī)，偶爾將它們放下。
