Our brains reward us for these activities in real life all the time.

对于这些现实生活中的活动,我们的大脑一直在给予我们奖励。
The trouble with the Internet is that it makes it possible to have unnaturally long periods of endorphin release, sustained rewards from the brain that are as quick as the click of a mouse. These rewards are not actual, useful, real-life rewards, but simple stimulation that arouses positive feedback in the brain. In real life endorphins encourage us to interact with friends or family, or attempt to learn something new. With Internet addiction endorphins do nothing but keep people hooked to their computers. Internet addicts behave very much like gamblers pulling the lever at machines in Las Vegas, even if it is not rational, hurts their studies. or spoils their health and their lives.
互联网的问题在于,它可以造成过于长期的、非自然的内啡肽释放,也就是来自大脑的持续不断的奖励,就像点击鼠标一样快速。这些奖励不是真实的、有用的、现实的奖励,它们只是引发大脑中正面反馈的简单刺激。在现实生活中,内啡肽促使我们和朋友、家人交往或者尝试学习新东西。而一旦上网成瘾,内啡肽只会使人更加迷恋电脑。有网瘾的人的行为就好像那些在拉斯维加斯的赌徒们不断拉动赌博机的操作杆,虽然这样做不理智、妨害他们的学业或损害他们的健康和生活。
So watch how much time you spend online; moderation is your best defense against Internet addiction. Use the wonders of connectivity to enrich your studies, stay connected with distant friends and explore multiple new worlds. Just be careful. Notice if you find you are thinking about the Internet even when you're not online, or if you prefer your online time to time with your real-life friends, or if you hide or lie about how much time you spend online. If you find yourself doing any of these things, take a step back. Look for other ways to enjoy your life. Get some exercise, which is a major source of endorphins! Visit a museum or a beautiful park. Get together with friends to study or schedule some fun time to relax. The Internet is a powerful tool, but make sure that you use it wisely for all the good value it offers and that you won’t let too much of a good thing become something bad.
所以,要留意你在网上花了多少时间。节制是对抗网瘾的最好的防御方式。利用网络创造的奇迹来充实你的学业、与远方的朋友保持联系、探索多样的新世界。只是要小心。留意一下,看自己不上网时是否还惦记着网络,或者你是否更愿意上网而不愿意与现实生活中的朋友在一起,或者你是否对上网时间进行掩饰和撒谎。如果你发现自己符合以上任何一种情况,那就要停下来想想了。去寻找其他享受生活的方式。做些运动,运动是内啡肽的重要来源!参观博物馆或去逛逛美丽的公园。和朋友们一起学习或安排娱乐时间来放松一下。互联网是一个强大的工具,但是要确保能明智地利用它,来获得它所能带来的一切好处,确保不会因过度使用而使它变成害人的东西。
