Do you need to throw your smart phone away to live your best life? Not necessarily,
according to researchers from Ruhr Universitat Bochum who suggest that we could all benefit
from cutting down on screen time-just only a little bit time.
On average, we spend more than three hours a day glued to our smart phone screens.
Between social media, news feeds, endless video games, and an app for pretty much everything
else, there’s always something to draw our attention. In recent years, studies have blamed smart
phones for modern problems ranging from rising anxiety rates to neck pain. It begs the question:
Are people all really better off switching back to landlines (座机)?
“The smart phone is both a blessing and a curse,” says study leader Dr. Julia Brailovskaia,
whose team set out to answer that question by gathering together 619 volunteers, hoping to know
how much the smart phone is good for us. Two hundred people put their smart phones completely
aside for a week; 226 reduced the amount of time they used the device by one hour a day; 193
people didn’t change anything in their behavior.
Researchers interviewed each person about both their overall lifestyle habits and well-being
four months later after the experimental week ended. “We found that both completely giving up
the smart phone and reducing its daily use by one hour had positive effects on the well-being of
the participants,” as Brailovskaia sums up the upshots. Notably, changing their smart phone habits
for just one week appeared to produce lasting outcomes among subjects. Even four months
afterward, participants who were told to avoid using their smart phones totally were using their
phones for an average of 38 minutes less per day.
Meanwhile, the “one hour less” group were using their phones as much as? 45 minutes less
per day after four months. This group also showed improved life satisfaction, more exercise, and
less depression.
“It’s nor necessary to completely give up the smart phone to feel better.” Brailovskaia
concludes.
4. What’s the purpose of Paragraph 2?
A. To answer the question on the smart phones.
B. To explain why the experiment was done.
C. To state disadvantages of the experiment.
D. To stress the benefits of smart phones.
5. What did the researchers do to the volunteers before testing them?
A. They trained them. B. They interviewed them.
C. They gave them a physical exam. D. They divided them into groups.
6. Which word can replace the underlined word “upshots” in Paragraph 4?
A. Purposes. B. Reasons. C. Results. D. Doubts.
C
By the year 2050, a fifth of the world’s cities will experience unprecedented climate
conditions and environments that currently don’t exist in any major cities, according to new
research. A team of scientists at the Crowther Lab in Switzerland produced the report, which
described the climate for 520 major cities 30 years in the future.
The results showed that 77 percent of the world’s cities will experience a surprising change in
