Too Much Screen Time Is Bad for You
This is my favorite show! I can watch it on my TV, my computer, my phone, my
tablet… *gasp* The battery's run out!
我可以用電視、電腦、手機,或是我的平板電腦??電池沒電,我就不能看我最愛的節目了!
Okay, I need to calm down. I know, I know. It's only a TV show. It's not a
big deal.
I have very bad self-control with electronic devices. I spend too much time
on them. Do you too? It's really hard to put them down!
我花太多時間在電子產品上,但就是忍不住。
I need to try harder though. Did you know that spending too much time on
electronic devices isn't very good for your brain? It's especially bad if
you're a kid.
你知道用太多電子產品對大腦不好嗎?對兒童的腦袋來說特別不好。
Some scientists did some research. It showed that when little kids spend too
much time staring at screens, it is bad for their brains.
The kids that used devices too much had a hard time. They couldn't stay
focused, remember things, follow instructions, or control themselves well.
科學家發現,看太多螢光幕的小孩很難專心、很健忘、不聽指示,也不太會控制自己。
They were also less alert. That means they weren't very good at noticing
things around them.
他們對周圍環境也沒有甚麼警覺心。
Well, that isn't good! I like using all of my devices. But staring at screens
too long is bad for my brain. I should probably think of other things to do.
我應該要找其他的事情來做了。
Hm… maybe I should go outside or read a book instead!
