對手機成癮怎麼辦?新加坡用一招來制你大綱

When was the last time you had a meal with someone without spending time texting someone else?

你上一次跟某個人一起吃飯且沒有把時間花在給別人發短信上是在什麼時候？

According to a survey by McDonald's Singapore which interviewed 302 parents, found 72 percent of children, and 69 percent of parents use their smartphones during mealtimes.

麥當勞新加坡分公司對302位父母進行了一次訪談，其調查顯示，有72%的孩子和69%的父母在用餐期間會玩手機。

McDonald's has introduced mobile phone lockers, in a bid to get customers to put their phones away, and start talking to each other again.

爲了讓顧客把手機收起來，再次開始互相交談，麥當勞推出了手機寄存櫃。

One of its outlets in Singapore is targeted at families, with the store encouraging both kids and parents to put their phones away.

新加坡的一家麥當勞連鎖店針對家庭（推出了手機寄存櫃），鼓勵孩子和父母把手機收起來。

The locker for 100 phones might have been a bit too ambitious .

這個儲物櫃可以存100部手機，然而這個目標也許有點太過野心勃勃。

This is not the first time McDonald's has pioneered such an initiative .

這不是麥當勞第一次提出這種倡議。

Another initiative, which is also under McDonald's "Phone Off, Fun On" campaign , isn't doing too well either.

在另一次倡議中，麥當勞也是以“關掉手機，一起玩吧”爲口號發起活動，然而其效果也不太好。

It attempted to pull off a similar campaign in India in 2015, urging youths to put down their phones. Customers had to tweet how long they went offline and what they did during the time.

2015年麥當勞試圖在印度發起一項類似活動，力勸年輕人放下手機。顧客必須在推特上寫明自己脫機多長時間，在這段時間裏做了什麼。

A user, who tried out the initiative, says they lasted all of "five minutes."

試過這一方案的一位用戶表示，他們把手機收起來的時間總共“五分鐘”。
