①We all love our phones, but using them too much can cause problems. Do you know most people check their phones over 50 times a day? Many teens feel nervous when they don't have their phones nearby. Even worse, phones sometimes make us miss what's happening right around us. Here's how to take control without giving up your phone completely.
②A good way to use your phone less is to pick a special period of time each day. Choose 30 minutes after school just for phone use. During this period, really focus on what you're doing—watch videos, message friends, or play games. But when time's up, put your phone away.
③Next, fight those noisy dings and buzzes. Turn off all notifications(通知)except for important ones. Imagine this: Your phone stays quiet during homework hours, but still rings if your mum calls you. This simple change reduces the brain's ideas of “check it now”. Without these, you'll feel less pulled to check your phone.
④Create places where phones aren't allowed. Keep your phone out of these three places: the dinner table—talk to family instead, your bed—charge(充电)it in the kitchen overnight, and study areas. Try the “Doorway Method”: Leave your phone by the front door when you get home, and only check it there when truly needed. If reaching for your phone requires walking downstairs, you'll think twice.
⑤Scientists found that about 1/3 of the time we spend on our phones is just out of habit, not something we truly enjoy. That's why the methods are mentioned above. By making such small changes, you can save over 2 hours daily! Use that extra time to read, play outside, or try a new hobby.
⑥Remember what an old Greek teacher once said, “Real freedom comes from controlling yourself.” Phones are tools, not bosses. Start small: Try one tip this week. Your phone will still be there, but you'll be in charge.

①我们都喜欢自己的手机，但使用手机过多会引发问题。你知道大多数人一天查看手机的次数超过50次吗？很多青少年在手机不在身边时会感到紧张。更糟糕的是，手机有时会让我们错过身边正在发生的事情。以下是一些在不完全放弃手机的情况下对其加以管控的方法。
②减少手机使用的一个好方法是每天设定一段特定的时间。选择放学后的30分钟专门用来使用手机。在这段时间里，要真正专注于你正在做的事情——看视频、给朋友发消息或者玩游戏。但时间一到，就把手机收起来。
③接下来，应对那些嘈杂的提示音和震动。除了重要的通知外，关闭所有通知。想象一下这种情况：在做作业的时候你的手机保持安静，但如果妈妈给你打电话，它仍然会响。这个简单的改变会减少大脑中“现在就查看（手机）”的想法。没有这些（干扰），你会觉得查看手机的冲动没那么强烈了。
④创建一些不允许使用手机的地方。让你的手机远离以下三个地方：餐桌——（在餐桌上）和家人交谈 instead（此处为原文残留，应忽略），你的床——晚上把它放在厨房充电，还有学习区域。试试“门口法”：回家时把手机放在前门旁边，只有在真正需要的时候才在那里查看它。如果拿手机需要下楼，你会再三考虑的。
⑤科学家发现，我们花在手机上的时间大约有1/3只是出于习惯，而不是我们真正喜欢做的事情。这就是上述方法被提及的原因。通过做出这些小改变，你每天可以节省超过2个小时！利用这些额外的时间阅读、在户外玩耍或者尝试一种新的爱好。
⑥记住一位古希腊教师曾经说过的话：“真正的自由来自于自我控制。”手机是工具，不是主宰。从小事做起：这周尝试一个小窍门。你的手机仍然会在那里，但你会掌控它。
