Children’s use of social media and the internet is a problem. That doesn’t mean it should be stopped. The internet is at least as interesting and fun for children as it is for adults, and social media is a fact of life.【F1】
While younger children should not be on platforms where 13 is the minimum age, it is neither practical nor desirable to imagine a world in which teenagers are prevented from accessing the platforms and messaging systems that the adults around them use to organize their lives.
But the pleasure and stimulation that people of all ages find on their screens and smartphones must not blind us to the harm that spending time in this way can cause.【F2】
The finding that the alarmingly high rate of depression in British teenage girls is closely correlated to time spent on social media is extremely concerning.
Research drawn from interviews with almost 11,000 14-year-olds found that two in five girls are on social media for at least three hours a day—with half as many boys engaged to the same extent. More than a third of depressed girls have experienced online harassment. About half of affected girls suffered disrupted sleep, compared with 20% of depressed boys.
Children’s charities and clinicians have long highlighted cyberbullying and issues around self-esteem, often linked to anxieties around attractiveness and sexuality, particularly among girls. While there is nothing new about teenagers being unkind to each other, there is a world of difference between whispered rumours and Photoshopped images. Feeling excluded or unpopular has always been painful, but it didn’t use to be possible for children to torment themselves—or others—with feeds featuring pictures of their peers having a wonderful time.
Although the research does not prove that social media causes depression, the importance of the finding that there is a connection should not be underestimated. This is an area in which, despite a great deal of worrying, evidence remains limited. Schools have done important work in communicating key messages about the risks of online abuse and grooming.【F3】
But when it comes to broader questions about "screen time"—an unhelpfully broad category conflating television, ebooks, gaming and social media—many professionals as well as parents are confused and uncertain.
The health secretary, Matt Hancock, wants official guidelines on time and age limits, and has asked chief medical officer Dame Sally Davies to provide them.【F4】
This idea has the virtue of simplicity, though some experts question its effects and call for a greater degree of differentiation, arguing that time online itself is not a bad thing and it all depends on what you are doing.
Also due this year is information commissioner Elizabeth Denham’s Age Appropriate Design Code, covering the use of children’s personal data. Both initiatives are welcome. But the government is playing catchup. Statutory regulation of the digital media giants is long overdue.【F5】
The failure to protect children from data harvesting and targeted advertising thus far is as shocking as the lack of concern shown by the companies themselves with regard to children’s psychological health.
【F1】
选项
答案
虽然年幼的孩子不应该在最低年龄为13岁的平台上,但想象一个青少年无法访问周围成年人用来组织生活的平台和消息传递系统的世界,既不切实际,也不可取。
解析
本句是主从复合句。主干为it is neither practical nor desirable to imagine a world。其中it为形式主语,to imagine a world为动词不定式短语作为真正的主语。While younger children should not be on platforms where 1 3 is the minimum age为让步状语从句。其中包含一个定语从句where 13 is the minimum age,定语从句中的where指代on platforms.并在定语从句中作为地点状语。主句中包含一个定语从句in which teenagers are prevented from accessing the platforms and messaging systems that the adults around them use to organize their lives,该定语从句修饰先行词a world:其中包含另一个定语从句that the adults around them use to organize their lives,修饰先行词the platforms and messaging systems。这个句子比较长,包含多个定语从句,注意根据其本身长度灵活翻译。
