在網(wǎng)上呆了太久，聽到電話鈴聲也會嚇一大跳。顯示屏上看多了我男朋友那些一目了然的文字，他的利物浦口音一下子變得難以聽懂；而秘書的清脆快速的語調(diào)聽上去比我想象的要生硬。時間本身變得捉摸不定——幾小時變成幾分鐘，或幾秒鐘延伸為幾天。周末原本是我一周的黃金時段，現(xiàn)在卻不過是平平常常的兩天。A+Virtual+Life+虛擬世界的生活A(yù)rticle1_W_Popwin_virtual.1virtual:adj.1)虛擬的；網(wǎng)絡(luò)的Virtuallife：網(wǎng)絡(luò)生活

在我不再當(dāng)電視制片人的這三年間，我的大部分工作都是在家里使用計算機終端進(jìn)行的。我通過電子郵件投稿和校訂，利用互聯(lián)網(wǎng)上的人名地址與同行交流。我男朋友住在英國，因此兩人的關(guān)系也在很大程度上借助于電腦維系。A+Virtual+Life+虛擬世界的生活A(yù)rticle2_W_Popwin_submit.1

我要是愿意的話，可以一連幾個星期不出門而什么也不缺。我可以在網(wǎng)上訂購食品、網(wǎng)上理財、網(wǎng)上戀愛、網(wǎng)上工作。事實上我有時獨自呆在家里長達(dá)三個星期，只偶爾出去拿信、買報紙及日用品。1996年那一場接一場的暴風(fēng)雪我大都是在電視上看到的。A+Virtual+Life+虛擬世界的生活4.Butafterawhile,lifeitselfbeginstofeelunreal.IstarttofeelasthoughI'vebecomeonewithmymachines,takingdatain,spittingthembackout,justanotherlinkintheNet.Othersonlinereportthesamesymptoms.Westarttofeelanaversiontooutsideformsofsocializing.WehavebecometheNetcritics'worstnightmare.然而，一段時間之后，生活本身就顯得不那么真實了。我開始覺得自己似乎與機器融為一體了，我接收信息，再發(fā)送出去，就如同互聯(lián)網(wǎng)的一個連接點。其他上網(wǎng)的人也談到了同樣的癥狀。我們開始厭惡外面的社交方式。我們的狀況成了批評互聯(lián)網(wǎng)的人們最害怕見到的一幕。A+Virtual+Life+虛擬世界的生活

一下床就上機，不再為發(fā)型、服飾、面部化妝煩心，起初看似高級的享受如今卻成為一種對生活的逃避，一種缺乏自律的表現(xiàn)。你一旦開始用網(wǎng)絡(luò)交際取代人與人的真實接觸，要走出這種穴居狀態(tài)就會相當(dāng)困難。A+Virtual+Life+虛擬世界的生活A(yù)rticle4_S_Popwin_And…1.Whatdoes“cyber-interaction”mean?2.Whatdoes“cave”herereferto?3.“comingbackoutofthecavecanbequitedifficult”.“Cyber-”：means“ofthecomputer”.“Cyber-interaction”meansthecontactviathecomputer.“Cave”herereferstotheisolatedlifeofthevirtualworld.Returningtonormalsocietyfromtheisolatedlifeofthevirtualworldcanbequitedifficult.Andonceyoustartreplacingrealhumancontactwithcyber-interaction,comingbackoutofthecavecanbequitedifficultA+Virtual+Life+虛擬世界的生活6.Ifindmyselfshyer,morecautious,moreanxious.Or,conversely,whensuddenlyconfrontedwithreallivehumans,Igetoverexcited,speaktoomuch,interrupt.IconstantlyworryifIamdressedappropriately,thatperhapsI'veactuallyforgottentoputonaskirtandwalkedoutsideintheT-shirtandunderwearIsleepandlivein.

我發(fā)現(xiàn)自己變得比以前怯生、謹(jǐn)慎、焦慮?；蛘?，反過來，當(dāng)我突然面對現(xiàn)實中活生生的人時，會變得過于興奮，說個不停，愛打斷別人的講話。我老是擔(dān)心自己衣著是否得體，擔(dān)心自己會不會真的忘了穿裙子，只穿著夜間睡覺、白天活動的那件T恤和內(nèi)衣就出門了。A+Virtual+Life+虛擬世界的生活A(yù)rticle4_W_popwin_converselyconversely:adv.相反地A+Virtual+Life+虛擬世界的生活7.Attimes,Iturnonthetelevisionandjustleaveittotalkawayinthebackground,somethingthatI'dneverdonepreviously.Thevoicesoftheprogramsarecomforting,butthenI'mjarredbythecommercials.Ifindmyselfsuckedinbysoapoperas,orneedingtokeepupwiththelatestnewsandtheweather."Dateline,""Frontline,""Nightline,"CNN,NewYork1,everypossibleangleofeverystoryoverandoverandover,evenwhentheyareofnopossibleusetome.Workmovesintothebackground.Idecidetocheckmyemail.有時我把電視機開著，讓它作為背景聲音一直響著，以前我從不這樣做。電視節(jié)目中的說話聲讓人感到寬慰，可那些廣告又叫我心煩。我發(fā)現(xiàn)自己沉浸在肥皂劇里，或者不停地收看最新的新聞報道和天氣預(yù)報。一而再再而三地從“每日新聞”、“一線新聞”、“夜間新聞”、有線新聞電視網(wǎng)、紐約一套上收看有關(guān)每一條新聞的各種不同視角的報道，盡管它們對我毫無用處。工作成了次要的。我決定去看一下自己的電子信箱。A+Virtual+Life+虛擬世界的生活A(yù)rticle5_W_popwin_butthenbutthen:butatthesametimeThefailureofChina’ssoccerteamlooksinevitable.Butthen,anythingcanhappeninfootball.A+Virtual+Life+虛擬世界的生活A(yù)rticle5_W_popwin_jarjar:v.haveanunpleasanteffectjaronsb./sth.Thewayshelaughsjarsonme.A+Virtual+Life+虛擬世界的生活Whatdoesthissentencemean?Itmeansworkbecomeslessimportant.Whatbecomesimportanttothewriter?Therealhumancontactbecomesimportant.A+Virtual+Life+虛擬世界的生活8.Online,Ifindmyselfattackingeveryoneinsight.Iambad-tempered,andeasilyangered.Ifindeveryoneonmymailinglistinsensitive,believingthatthey'veforgottenthattherearepeopleactuallyreadingtheirwoundingremarks.Idon'trealizethatI'mprojectinguntilafterI'vebeenembarrassedbysomeonewhopolitelypointsoutthatI'veattackedherforagreeingwithme.在網(wǎng)上，我發(fā)現(xiàn)自己見誰攻誰。我脾氣暴躁，動輒生氣。我覺得我與之通信的每一個人都麻木不仁，認(rèn)為他們已經(jīng)忘卻還有人真會去讀他們那些刻薄傷人的言辭。直到有人禮貌地指出，她同意我的觀點卻遭到我的抨擊時，我才意識到，自己是在以己度人，不由得深感尷尬。A+Virtual+Life+虛擬世界的生活A(yù)rticle6_W_popwin_remark.1remark:1)n.words2)
