Words for Recognition
1 disconnect
anxiety n. 離線焦慮
|
知識萬花筒
除了本課提到的「手機離線焦慮症」，根據國內外醫學研究指出，過度使用手機還可能造成以下文明病：
1 手機幻聽症：總覺得自己的手機在響，其實根本沒有人打來。這是一種強迫症狀，偶爾幻聽並不影響健康，但若長期幻聽要考慮壓力是否太大。嚴重的幻覺容易演變成強迫症，需就醫治療。
2 手機依賴症：沒有手機就無所適從。不要以為手機依賴症不是什麼嚴重的疾病，長期下來容易導致焦慮、煩躁不安或情緒低落等，會為生活、工作與學習帶來壓力，甚至會導致神經系統及腦部功能異常。
3 手機焦慮症：生怕漏接手機、手機不在身邊就坐立不安，長期下來出現精神緊張、擔心和恐懼等焦慮症狀。經常處在焦慮下，會讓身體亮紅燈，導致頭暈、口乾、胸悶、心悸、呼吸困難、頻尿、出汗等。
4 手機恐懼症：有時對一些不想接到的電話，鈴聲一響就心煩意亂，卻又不能不使用手機或不開機，讓人不自由。
5 手機虛榮症：只要有新款手機上市，就忍不住要換，甚至省吃儉用只為了買新款手機；並且還頻繁更換手機鈴聲、外殼顏色，這種「手機虛榮症」是人格虛榮和不自信的表現。

◊ Ron goes to work on foot rather than by bus.
◊ I ate a
cake rather than an apple.

但是rather than後面的動詞也可以用原形動詞或者動名詞，例：
◊ We should go home rather than discussing/discuss the matter here.
如果rather than放句首，後面動詞只用原形動詞或者動名詞，例：
◊ Rather than get/getting angry, Judy responded to the insult with a laugh.
若rather than用來連接兩個主詞時，動詞需和第一個主詞一致，例：
◊ Rick rather than I walks to school every day.
另外，would rather . . . than解釋為「寧願…不要…」，後方需搭配原形動詞，例：
◊ Sean would rather eat instant noodles at home than go out to eat.
