三翻译
1As amusing and ingenious as electronic entertainment can be,children—and the society they live in—are the lors when they rely on the forms of fun.Unlike traditional games and toys,“wired”entertainment encourages kids to be unimaginative,socially immature,and crudely densitized to the world around them.
电子游戏非常好玩而且设计得非常精巧，当孩子们依赖于这些娱乐形式时，他们以及他们赖以生存的社会都成了失败者。与传统的游戏和玩具不同的是，电子娱乐促使孩子们不去发挥想象力，社交不成熟，对周围世界麻木不仁。
2The player is as much a tool of the game as the joystick.Her momentary fun is unsatisfying becau it leads not to any genuine n of achievement but only to the hypnotic experience of watching someone el’s creation unfold.
玩家就像操纵杆一样，充其量就是个工具。他那瞬间的乐趣并不能令他满足，因为那样不能给他真正
的成就感，只是糊里糊涂地看着别人的创造在一点点展现而已。

Human beings are now altering the basic physiology of the planet.Industrial smog can be found everywhere over the oceans,and weather patterns are so distorted that climatologists now discuss“climate death”.Industrial contamination is pervasive,even in the fat cells of Antarctic penguins.The rain is not only acid but toxic.Whether industrialism warms or cools the atmosphere its chemical experiment threatens to change life in ways barely imaginable,but undoubtedly for the wor.
人类正改变着我们这颗行星的基本生态系统。工业烟雾四处弥漫，远及大洋；气候模式如此不正常至于气候学家现在也探讨“气候的极度恶化”问题。工业污染无孔不入，甚至残留于南极洲企鹅的脂肪细胞中。雨不仅呈酸性，而且有毒。不论工业主义使大气变暖还是变凉，其化学实验将如何导致生物变异还难以想象，但情形将每况愈下是无疑的。
