手機刷新了人與人的關系。會議室門口通常貼著一條通告:請與會者關閉手機。可是會議室里的手機鈴聲仍然響成一片,我們都是普通人,并沒有多少重要的事情,盡管如此,我們也不會輕易關掉手機。打開手機象征我們與這個世界的聯系,手機反映出我們的“社交饑渴癥”,最為常見的是,一個人走著走著突然停下來,眼睛盯著手機屏幕發短信,他不在乎停在馬路中央還是廁所旁邊。
為什么對于手機來電和短信這么在乎?因為我們迫切渴望與社會保持聯系。
Cell phones have altered interpersonal relationships. There is usually a notice on the door of the meeting room, which reads. “Please turn off your cell phone. ” However, the rings of cell phones are still resounding in the room. We are all common people and have few urgencies to deal with. Even so. we are reluctant to turn off our phones easily. Cell phones symbolize our connection with the world and reflect our “ thirst for socialization”. We are very familiar with the scene that a person suddenly stops his/her steps to edit messages with eyes glued at the phone screen, not caring about his/her stopping in the middle of a road or beside the restroom.
