nervous. But could they do it?
With the detox now finished, they蒺ve
switched on their devices and they蒺re back
online. 3.

already know what he had done. 7.

I did all seven days, too! 10.
(说实话, 我觉得社交媒体脱瘾没
那么难, 但为了让自己不半途而废, 我还是
把手机上交给爸爸了)!
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. 11.
(每天
一小时的运动让人筋疲力尽, 想早点上床休

(我都不好意

I knew
there was a party happening that evening, but
without access to social media I couldn蒺t
remember where it was! In the end, I turned
on my phone to check, but couldn蒺t resist
having a quick look at my social media
accounts. 13.

I almost
missed the party!

社交媒体脱瘾
主持人
布伦顿高中为了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。 脱离社交媒体的每一
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?
如今, 脱瘾活动已结束, 他们纷纷开启
电子设备, 重返网络。 相信你和我一样, 迫
切想知道多少人有足够的动力坚持了整整七
天
!
而他们, 又从此次经历中学到了什么?

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, 我就像缺
少一只胳膊一般。 让我饿两天可能还更轻松

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。

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。 这也让我意识到我已
经遗忘了真正沟通的重要性。

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?

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

我都不好意思说自己第一天就打了退堂
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!
主持人
此 次 脱 瘾 活 动 总 共 为 学 校 募 集 了
1632.82
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。
