Create No-Phone Zones
創造「禁手機區域」
「My No. 1 piece of advice is no phones in the bedroom overnight,」 Dr. Twenge, a psychology professor at San Diego State University, said. 「Have a charging station outside the bedroom.」
聖地牙哥州立大學的心理學教授特文格表示：「我的第一條建議就是，晚上不要將手機帶到臥室。在臥室外搞個充電器吧。」
overnight /əʊvə'naɪt/ 表示：夜裡; 在夜間（for or during the night）
Pam's staying overnight at my house.帕姆將在我家過夜。
此外，overnight作副詞還可以表示：突然，一下子（suddenly or surprisingly quickly）
積累搭配：appen / appear / change over-night
Reputations are not changed overnight.聲譽不是一夜之間就會改變的。
Outside of our bedrooms, we can create other No-Phone Zones. The dinner table, for example, is a prime opportunity for families to agree to put phones away for at least 30 minutes and reconnect.
除了臥室之外，我們還可以打造其他「禁手機區域」。比如晚餐桌，家人基本都會同意至少三十分鐘不看手機，也可藉此重新聯絡家人感情。

Social media sites create goals to keep users engaged. Those include the number of likes and followers we accrue on Facebook or Twitter. YouTube automatically plays the next recommended video, not to mention the never-ending Facebook and Twitter scrolling.
社交媒體網站會設置一些目標讓用戶沉迷，比如臉書和推特上積累的點讚數和粉絲數。Youtube會自動播放推薦的視頻，更不用說怎麼刷也刷不完的臉書和推特。
accrue /ə'kruː/ 表示：（使）〔錢〕逐漸增加，積累（if money accrues or is accrued, it gradually increases over a period of time）
Interest will accrue until payment is made.錢如果不付的話利息會越來越多。
For starters, we can resist the hooks by making our phones less intrusive. Turn off notifications for all apps except those that are essential for work and keeping in touch with people you care about. If you feel strongly addicted, take an extreme measure and turn the phone to grayscale mode.
對於剛開始戒手機癮的人來說，我們可以通過減少手機的「侵入性」來抵制這些誘惑。除非某些應用對你的工作十分必要，或是能幫你和在意的人保持聯繫，否則你可以關掉應用的消息通知。如果你覺得實在難以戒掉手機，不妨採取極端一點兒的措施，把手機調成灰度模式。
intrusive /ɪn'truːsɪv/ 表示：幹涉的; 打擾的（affecting someone's private life or interrupting them in an unwanted and annoying way）
They found the television cameras too intrusive.他們認為電視攝像機太討厭了。
