Concerns about gossip could influence behavior, including generosity, researchers said.“As it turns out, the act of gossip can indeed be quite powerful,“ said Jared Piazza of Queens University in Belfast, Northern Ireland.Piazza and Jesse M.

Mental-health specialists disagree over whether to classi
26、fy compulsive online behaviour as addictionand how to treat it. Craig Smallwood, a disabled American war veteran, spent more than 20,000 hours over five years playing an online role-playing game called “Lineage II“. When NCsoft, the South Korean firm behind the game, accused him of breaking the game
27、s rules and banned him, he was plunged into depression, severe paranoia (偏执) and hallucinations (幻想). He spent three weeks in hospital. After that, he sued NCsoft for fraud and negligence (过失), demanding over $ 9m in damages and claiming that the company acted negligently by failing to warn him of t
28、he danger that he would become “addicted“ to the game.B. But does it make sense to talk of addiction to online activity? Mental-health specialists say three online behaviors can become problematic for many people: video games, pornography (色情作品) and messaging via e-mail and social networks. But ther
29、e is far less agreement about whether any of this should be called “Internet addiction“or how to treat it.C. Some mental-health specialists wanted “Internet addiction“ to be included in the fifth version of psychiatrys bible, the “Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders“, known as DSM-
30、V, which is currently being overhauled (全面修订). The American Medical Association endorsed (赞成) the idea in 2007, only to backtrack (放弃) days later. The American Journal of Psychiatry called Internet addiction a “common disorder“ and supported its recognition. Last year the DSM-V drafting group made i
31、ts decision: Internet addiction would not be included as a “behavioral addiction“only gambling made the cutbut it said further study was necessary.D. Skeptics say there is nothing uniquely addictive about the Internet. Back in 2000, Joseph Walther, a communications professor at Michigan State Univer
32、sity, co-wrote an article in which he suggested, tongue in cheek, that the criteria used to call someone an Internet addict might also show that most professors were “addicted“ to academia (学术活动). He argued that other factors, such as depression, are the real problem. He stands by that view today. “
33、No scientific evidence has emerged to suggest that Internet use is a cause rather than a consequence of some other sort of issue,“ he says. “Focusing on and treating people for Internet addiction, rather than looking for underlying clinical issues, is definitely unwise.“E. Others disagree. “That wou
34、ld be wrong,“ says Kimberly Young, a researcher and therapist who has worked on Internet addiction since 1994. She insists that the Internet, with its powerfully immersive environments, creates new problems that people must learn to navigate (应对). Otherwise, the changing lifestyle will affect the de
35、velopment of the society.F. No one disputes that online habits can rum toxic. Take South Korea, where widespread broadband means that the average high-school student plays video games for 23 hours each week. In 2007 the government estimated that around 210,000 children needed treatment for Internet
36、addiction. In 2010 newspapers around the globe carried the story of a South Korean couple who fed their infant daughter so little that she starved to death. Instead of caring for the child, the couple spent most nights at an Internet caf, sinking hours into a role- playing game in which they raised,
37、 fed and cared for a virtual daughter. And several South Korean men have died from exhaustion after marathon, multi-day gaming sessions.G. The South Korean government has since asked game developers to adopt a gaming curfew (宵禁) for children, to prevent them playing between midnight and 8 a.m. At th
38、e same time, it has also opened more than 100 clinics for Internet addiction and sponsored an “Internet rescue camp“ for serious cases. H) But compulsive behaviour is not limited to gamers. E-mail or web-use behaviours can also show signs of addiction. Getting through a business lunch in which no on
39、e pulls out a phone to check their messages now counts as a minor miracle in many quarters. A deluge (泛滥) of self-help books, most recently “Alone Together“ by Sherry Turkle, a social scientist at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, offer advice on how to unplug (去除障碍).I. Pornography is hardl
40、y new, either, hut the Internet makes accessing it much easier than ever before. When something can be summoned in an instant via broadband, whether it is a game world, an e-mail inbox or pornographic material, it is harder to resist. New services lead to new complaints. When online auction sites fi
41、rst became popular, talk of “eBay addiction“ soon followed. Dr. Young says women complain to her now about addiction to Facebookor even to “Farm Ville“, a game playable only within Facebook.J. Treatment centres have popped up around the world with the popularity of online games. In 2006 Amsterdams S

But I signed up for intensive Japanese this semester.M: I wish I were as talented as you are in foreign languages. Id love to study abroad.W: Then why
48、 dont you? The university has lots of overseas programs that dont require mastery of a foreign language. The tuition is about the same. You just have to be the kind of person who is receptive to new ways of looking at things and willing to adapt to a different kind of life style.M: I had assumed that all programs require you to know a foreign language. I might check into this.W:
