问题    At any elementary school in China’s metropolises, you will find numerous kids who wear glasses. Undesirable reading habits and chronic exposure to screens not only account for the higher incidence of nearsightedness, but take a heavy toll on the well-being of kids. Kids who are lost in the virtual world are more vulnerable to overweight, whose grades are bound to suffer. The appeal of digital gadgets, such as cell phones or smartphones, seems so irresistible that keeping oneself unplugged for a single day is virtually out of the question. While we are enjoying the benefits of modern conveniences, we are also having some basic necessities of life deprived, including peace of mind and a robust body.

选项

答案 在中国大城市的任何一所小学,你都会发现很多孩子戴眼镜。不良的阅读习惯和长期接触屏幕不仅使近视率上升,也对孩子的健康造成重大影响。沉迷于虚拟世界的孩子更容易超重,学习成绩必定受到影响。数字产品的魅力似乎是难以抵御的,如手机或智能手机,一天不上网几乎是不可能的。我们在享受便利的现代化生活的同时,也失去了一些生活必备的因素,包括安宁和健康的体魄。

解析    该短文是近几年英译汉考题中比较简单的一篇,有时可根据上下文猜出来某个生词的意义,如metropolis和take a heavy toll on。相对难翻译的是第四句中的keeping oneself unplugged tor a single day is virtually out of the question。plug的意义是“插头”或“插上插头”,所以unplugged的意义是“不插上插头”,也就是“不使用电源”或“不用电子装置”。
