電視懶蟲如果我有能力為美國社會(huì)帶來一點(diǎn)變化，做決定并不困難。我會(huì)取締電視。TextReadingA

我從小就是個(gè)電視懶蟲，有過幾本電視懶蟲指南，現(xiàn)在我還能清楚地回憶起其中列出的一些建議。我之所以提及這些，是因?yàn)榛叵肫饋?，我似乎根本就沒讀過其他東西——每天我要看大約7個(gè)小時(shí)的電視。TextReadingA

成為電視懶蟲有許多理由?？措娨暿呛芎玫脑绮颓皧蕵?，看電視是很好的放學(xué)后娛樂，看電視還是很好的睡前娛樂。人人都看，所以你也得看，這樣才能與朋友交談。不然的話，在朋友面前你插不上話，這會(huì)讓你看起來像個(gè)傻瓜。A-Trans-3TextReadingA

但是幾個(gè)月前我徹底不看電視了，結(jié)果我發(fā)現(xiàn)自己變成了一個(gè)更勤于思考的人，就是因?yàn)槲矣懈嗟臅r(shí)間去思考了。電視再不能把它的思想塞進(jìn)我的腦子里。反思我的童年，讓我驚訝的是，我發(fā)現(xiàn)用一句話就足以概括我的童年：“我看了許多電視。”而且，我浪費(fèi)了太多的青春時(shí)光，再也不能追回了。我再也不會(huì)像孩童時(shí)代那樣富有想象力和充滿活力了。A-Trans-4TextReadingA

我的哥哥安德魯，自從4年前讀大學(xué)起就一直不看電視。我過去總認(rèn)為這很荒唐。沒有電視的生活將是多么無聊乏味！他總是建議我不要再看電視。但我拒絕了，我解釋說我一天只看4小時(shí)。A-Trans-3TextReadingA

去年夏天我上了大學(xué)，學(xué)習(xí)日文。公寓里沒有電視，因此，空暇時(shí)間里我讀書、做功課或去超市做收銀員。最讓我驚奇的是，我發(fā)現(xiàn)天并沒有塌下來，什么都沒改變，我也沒有錯(cuò)過任何新聞。要說有什么變化，那就是我變得更放松了。A-Trans-3TextReadingA

在搬出公寓前不久，我有了一個(gè)室友約翰。為了德納里峰國家公園的一份工作，他從明尼蘇達(dá)開車來到阿拉斯加。可當(dāng)他到了那兒，卻發(fā)現(xiàn)那工作并不如意。后來他去當(dāng)?shù)匾患也宛^應(yīng)聘服務(wù)員，但又沒成功。于是他變得十分沮喪，成了一個(gè)徹頭徹尾的電視懶蟲。大部分時(shí)候，他都覺得電視節(jié)目枯燥無味，但他會(huì)不停地更換頻道。我下班回來，總是發(fā)現(xiàn)他在看電視，而且一看就是好幾個(gè)小時(shí)。我真想對他吼一聲：“出去做點(diǎn)事，好不好！”A-Trans-3TextReadingA

我知道自己不可能說服他不泡電視。這樣的人太多了。我知道自己有理由來研究一下電視問題。A-Trans-3TextReadingA

現(xiàn)在無論電視節(jié)目有多精彩，我都能完全抵擋住它的誘惑。我正邁入一個(gè)新的生活階段。同時(shí)，我希望所有的電視懶蟲都能關(guān)掉電視。但是我擔(dān)心，隨著“任天堂”和“世嘉”家庭電視游戲的發(fā)展，在這個(gè)國家中我不會(huì)是最后一個(gè)被動(dòng)地坐在電視機(jī)前虛度黃金歲月的人。A-Trans-3TextReadingATask2LanguagePoints
