在网上呆了太久，听到电话铃声也会吓一大跳。显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变得难以听懂；而秘书的清脆快速的语调听上去比我想象的要生硬。时间本身变得捉摸不定——几小时变成几分钟，或几秒钟延伸为几天。周末原本是我一周的黄金时段，现在却不过是平平常常的两天。A+Virtual+Life+虚拟世界的生活Article1_W_Popwin_virtual.1virtual:adj.1)虚拟的；网络的Virtuallife：网络生活

在我不再当电视制片人的这三年间，我的大部分工作都是在家里使用计算机终端进行的。我通过电子邮件投稿和校订，利用互联网上的人名地址与同行交流。我男朋友住在英国，因此两人的关系也在很大程度上借助于电脑维系。A+Virtual+Life+虚拟世界的生活Article2_W_Popwin_submit.1

我要是愿意的话，可以一连几个星期不出门而什么也不缺。我可以在网上订购食品、网上理财、网上恋爱、网上工作。事实上我有时独自呆在家里长达三个星期，只偶尔出去拿信、买报纸及日用品。1996年那一场接一场的暴风雪我大都是在电视上看到的。A+Virtual+Life+虚拟世界的生活4.Butafterawhile,lifeitselfbeginstofeelunreal.IstarttofeelasthoughI'vebecomeonewithmymachines,takingdatain,spittingthembackout,justanotherlinkintheNet.Othersonlinereportthesamesymptoms.Westarttofeelanaversiontooutsideformsofsocializing.WehavebecometheNetcritics'worstnightmare.然而，一段时间之后，生活本身就显得不那么真实了。我开始觉得自己似乎与机器融为一体了，我接收信息，再发送出去，就如同互联网的一个连接点。其他上网的人也谈到了同样的症状。我们开始厌恶外面的社交方式。我们的状况成了批评互联网的人们最害怕见到的一幕。A+Virtual+Life+虚拟世界的生活

一下床就上机，不再为发型、服饰、面部化妆烦心，起初看似高级的享受如今却成为一种对生活的逃避，一种缺乏自律的表现。你一旦开始用网络交际取代人与人的真实接触，要走出这种穴居状态就会相当困难。A+Virtual+Life+虚拟世界的生活Article4_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+虚拟世界的生活6.Ifindmyselfshyer,morecautious,moreanxious.Or,conversely,whensuddenlyconfrontedwithreallivehumans,Igetoverexcited,speaktoomuch,interrupt.IconstantlyworryifIamdressedappropriately,thatperhapsI'veactuallyforgottentoputonaskirtandwalkedoutsideintheT-shirtandunderwearIsleepandlivein.

我发现自己变得比以前怯生、谨慎、焦虑。或者，反过来，当我突然面对现实中活生生的人时，会变得过于兴奋，说个不停，爱打断别人的讲话。我老是担心自己衣着是否得体，担心自己会不会真的忘了穿裙子，只穿着夜间睡觉、白天活动的那件T恤和内衣就出门了。A+Virtual+Life+虚拟世界的生活Article4_W_popwin_converselyconversely:adv.相反地A+Virtual+Life+虚拟世界的生活7.Attimes,Iturnonthetelevisionandjustleaveittotalkawayinthebackground,somethingthatI'dneverdonepreviously.Thevoicesoftheprogramsarecomforting,butthenI'mjarredbythecommercials.Ifindmyselfsuckedinbysoapoperas,orneedingtokeepupwiththelatestnewsandtheweather."Dateline,""Frontline,""Nightline,"CNN,NewYork1,everypossibleangleofeverystoryoverandoverandover,evenwhentheyareofnopossibleusetome.Workmovesintothebackground.Idecidetocheckmyemail.有时我把电视机开着，让它作为背景声音一直响着，以前我从不这样做。电视节目中的说话声让人感到宽慰，可那些广告又叫我心烦。我发现自己沉浸在肥皂剧里，或者不停地收看最新的新闻报道和天气预报。一而再再而三地从“每日新闻”、“一线新闻”、“夜间新闻”、有线新闻电视网、纽约一套上收看有关每一条新闻的各种不同视角的报道，尽管它们对我毫无用处。工作成了次要的。我决定去看一下自己的电子信箱。A+Virtual+Life+虚拟世界的生活Article5_W_popwin_butthenbutthen:butatthesametimeThefailureofChina’ssoccerteamlooksinevitable.Butthen,anythingcanhappeninfootball.A+Virtual+Life+虚拟世界的生活Article5_W_popwin_jarjar:v.haveanunpleasanteffectjaronsb./sth.Thewayshelaughsjarsonme.A+Virtual+Life+虚拟世界的生活Whatdoesthissentencemean?Itmeansworkbecomeslessimportant.Whatbecomesimportanttothewriter?Therealhumancontactbecomesimportant.A+Virtual+Life+虚拟世界的生活8.Online,Ifindmyselfattackingeveryoneinsight.Iambad-tempered,andeasilyangered.Ifindeveryoneonmymailinglistinsensitive,believingthatthey'veforgottenthattherearepeopleactuallyreadingtheirwoundingremarks.Idon'trealizethatI'mprojectinguntilafterI'vebeenembarrassedbysomeonewhopolitelypointsoutthatI'veattackedherforagreeingwithme.在网上，我发现自己见谁攻谁。我脾气暴躁，动辄生气。我觉得我与之通信的每一个人都麻木不仁，认为他们已经忘却还有人真会去读他们那些刻薄伤人的言辞。直到有人礼貌地指出，她同意我的观点却遭到我的抨击时，我才意识到，自己是在以己度人，不由得深感尴尬。A+Virtual+Life+虚拟世界的生活Article6_W_popwin_remark.1remark:1)n.words2)
