4.Next time you're in a public place,take a look around you,and count how many people are using their phones.I can tell you that it is probably more than half,whether you're in a bus,in a café or simply walking down the street.
I'm not saying that I am not an example of this,but I wonder how people can spend so much time on their phones without actually talking to anyone in particular.We can now do almost anything with a phone.But has it gone too far?We spend too much time on our mobiles but not enough time talking to people in real life.
Last time I visited London,I traveled by subway.I noticed that almost everybody else was on their phones except those who were asleep.People were playing games,reading articles and listening to music.
Recently,my smart phone broke and I had to use an old basic phone just to keep in touch with my family and friends.I could only send text messages,make calls and play one game with it.And I loved it.I loved being free from the Internet,and I really didn't mind what my friends were doing or what the latest news was.I could enjoy my time watching the people around me and seeing what was going on.
However,I knew that as soon as I got my smart phone back,I would be one of those people once again.

分析 翻译:
下一次你在公共场所,看看你的周围,数数有多少人使用他们的手机.我可以告诉你,这可能是超过一半,无论你是在公共汽车上,在一个咖啡馆或只是走在街上.我不是说我不是一个例子,但我不知道人们怎么能花这么多时间在他们的手机上,而不是真正地和任何人交谈.我们可以做几乎任何事与电话,但它已经走了太多的时间在我们的手机,但没有足够的时间在现实生活中的人交谈.上一次我去伦敦时,我坐地铁去了,我注意到,除了那些睡着的人,几乎所有的人都在打电话,人们在玩游戏,看书,听音乐.最近,我的智能手机坏了,我不得不使用一个旧的手机,我的家人和朋友保持联系.我只能发短信,打电话,玩一个游戏,我爱它.我爱自由的互联网,我真的不介意我的朋友正在做什么或最新消息是什么.我可以享受我的时间看周围的人,我看到什么是发生了.然而,我知道只要我一得到我的智能手机,我就会再次成为这些人之一.
