Social Media Detox
Moderator
Today marks the last day of the Social Media Detox, Brenton High’s fundraising campaign for new sports equipment. At the start of the detox, over 100 students had been persuaded to stop using social media, in ANY form, for seven days. This meant no messaging friends, no posting photos, no blogging----nothing. They had been promised money by family and friends for each day spent without using social media. They were nervous. But could they do it
社交媒体脱瘾
主持人
布伦顿高中为给购置新的体育设备筹款,举办了一项名为“社交媒体脱瘾”的活动。今天是活动的最后一天。脱瘾活动初期,我们成功说服100多名学生连续七天不得使用任何形式的社交媒体。这就意味着他们在这段时间内不能给朋友发短信,不能上传照片,不能发博客,与社交媒.体相关的任何形式的活动都不行。脱离社交媒体的每-天,他们都能收到来自家人和朋友的奖励金。对此,他们很兴奋,也很紧张。但他们真的能做到吗

I lasted two days. The detox was more difficult to tolerate than I had expected. I felt like I had lost an arm! Not eating for two days would have been easier! But on reflection, I can see how much of my time had been occupied with checking my phone. I’m now trying to spend less time online and more time picking up my hobbies.
安娜17
我坚持了两天。社交媒体脱瘾比我预期的更加难以忍受。没了社交媒体,就像缺少-只胳膊一般。让我饿两天可能还更轻松些!但一番反思后,我也意识到平日花在看手机上的时间太多了。现在,我正试图减少上网时间,把更多精力用于重拾自己的爱好。

Devon 16
I lasted four days. On Monday, our classmate and I spoke about what we did at the weekend—it felt strange not to already know what he had done. We would have posted pictures and updated our profiles. Doing the detox meant we had to talk and explain what we were ding and thinking! It made me realise the value of real contact that I hand forgotten.
戴文16
我坚持了四天。周一,我和同学讨论了周末各自的活动——我并不知道他都做了些什么,这感觉太奇怪了。因为平时我们都会上传照片,更新各自的动态。参与这次脱瘾活动,意味着我们不得不互相交流并向对方解释自己的所做所想。这也让我意识到已经遗忘了的真正沟通的重要性。

Cindy 18
I managed the whole week! At first, I really felt I was missing out. Then, instead of messaging my friend, I went around to her house. Without our phones, we had a proper conversation for over two hours. Without being distracted by messages from other people, it felt so good! Then i decided to visit a different friend every day. By the fifth day, I wondered—was I really missing out by not constantly checking my phone to see what everyone else was up to
辛迪18
我坚持了整整一周!最初,我真的感觉自己错过了无数消息。但我忍住没给朋友发消息,而是直接去了她家。没有手机的我们,好好地聊了两个多小时,没有被其他人的消息干扰,这感觉真棒!接下来我决定每天去见一位不同的朋友。到第五天时我在想,当我不再忙于查看手机关注他人生活的时候,我真的错过了很多吗

Gorge 16
I did all seven days, too! To be honest, I didn’t find the detox too difficult, but I did give my phone to my father to avoid giving in! My brother thought I should make full use of the time without my phone; so he took me to check out our local sports centre. An hour’s sport each day left me tired out and sent me early to bed. The detox made me healthier!
乔治16
我也坚持了整整七天!说实话,我觉得社交媒体脱瘾没那么难,但为了让自己不要半途而废,我还是把手机上交给爸爸了。哥哥觉得我应该充分规划好没有手机的日子,因此他带我去了我们当地的体育中心。每天一小时的运动让人筋疲力尽,想早点上床休息。脱瘾活动让我更健康了!

“do/does/did+ 动词原形”结构只有一般现在时和一般过去时,且只对肯定的谓语动词进行强调,没有否定式和疑问式。

I’m embarrassed to say that I threw in the towel on the first day! I knew there was a party happening that evening, but without access to social media I couldn’t remember where it was! In the end, I turn on my phone to check, but couldn’t resist having a quick look at my social media accounts. What’s worse, I then spent so much time catching up on news, I almost missed the party.
马克斯17
我都不好意思说自己第-天就打了退堂鼓。脱瘾活动开始的当晚有个聚会,但如果不靠社交媒体的话,我怎么也想不起地点在哪儿!最后我还是打开手机查看了一下,结果没忍住,偷看了一眼我的社交媒体账户。更糟的是,我花了大把时间刷新动态,差点错过了本该要去的聚会!

The detox raised a total of $1,632.82 for new school sports equipment! Well done, everyone who took part! After reading the posts on this forum, it seems that something rather than money has also been raised through the detox. Awareness of just how much we rely on social media can help us step away from it and communicate with each other better.
主持人
此次脱瘾活动总共为学校募集了1,632.82英镑,用于购置新的体育设备!每位参与者都做得很棒!看了论坛上的各个帖子,这次活动对人们的影响似乎远远不止通过活动筹集到的钱。脱瘾活动还让我们意识到自己对社交媒体的依赖程度,从而帮助我们摆脱它的束缚,更好地互相沟通。
