雅思口語Part2話題-手機（2018年9至12月）

手機在我們的生活中扮演者越來越重要的位置，在雅思考試當中也越來越多的被提及，所以在本期，新通教育老師李珺為大家提供一些關于手機這個話題的思路，希望能給正在備考雅思的同學們帶來幫助。

這一季考試雖然已經(jīng)結(jié)束，大家已經(jīng)在翹首期盼下一季題目的到來，但是Sissi還是想要對本季題目當中的一些多說幾句話。所以本次文章選定了“手機”這個話題。和它相似的還有關于網(wǎng)絡、上網(wǎng)等話題。大家千萬不要覺得的題目就是那些了!雅思口語是一直會跟著時事來改變的!所以下次如果被問到了“科技”“太空”“社交網(wǎng)絡”的話題，也是再正常不過的了。不過本期文章Sissi想要討論的是手機對我們的孩子帶來的害處!像往期一樣，學習語言點的同時，積累一些素材使用吧!

Scientists in $300m study say children risk low IQs and poor cognitive function by spending hours on smart phones. Children who use screens for seven hours or more a day are showing signs that their brain cortex is thinning prematurely.

thin 變薄，在此文章里是動詞，是不是非常生動形象;

prematurely 過早地;

The findings show that children are at risk of deteriorating memory function, perception skills, and cognitive abilities, according to a new major U.S. study. The ongoing $300million research is funded by the National Institute of Health and shows the result of the effects of technology on children.

deteriorate 惡化;

perception 洞察;

cognitive abilities 認知能力;

The aim of the study, called Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development (ABCD), is also to show how screen time affects emotional development and mental health.

Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development (ABCD) 青少年大腦認知發(fā)展;

An image of a brain while a child performs a working memory task, released by ABCD researches. The regions in yellow and red are most active. Researchers made the early findings by scanning the brains of 4,500 children. Scientists are in the process of following more than 11,000 nine to ten-year-olds over the course of a decade. The researchers also determined that children who spend more than two hours of daily screen time score lower on thinking and language tests. The brain cortex is the outermost layer of neural tissue that processes information from the physical world. It is critical for cognitive functions such as perception, language, memory, and consciousness but thins as we mature into old age.

brain cortex 大腦皮層;

outermost 最外面的;

neural tissue 神經(jīng)組織;

consciousness 知覺;

Though the difference was significant from participants who spent less time using smart devices, the study director cautioned against drawing a conclusion.

智能手機在很明顯的程度上增加了我們生活的便利，這是在問題中大多數(shù)學生經(jīng)常談論到的，有時候甚至答題變成了套路;但是手機也同時帶來了不可避免的缺失，其實在回答時也可以說到，尤其是在part3中。

手機對于大腦的影響可能不僅僅針對于兒童，對于我們每個人來說又何嘗不是一種災害呢?所以說，科技的進步真的會帶來演化的升級嗎?

好啦!本期話題內(nèi)容就到這里!2019年1月馬上到來!Sissi覺得就算“手機”會被換掉，和科技相關的內(nèi)容和問題中也無法回避地會談到手機!所以還是希望同學們可以把這一塊的信息和語言點積累起來吧!
