While many of us go to sleep before midnight, some teenagers choose to stay up much later. They are not driven by the burning desire to write a better essay or achieve a higher grade. Instead, they are busy playing online games. Known as young Internet addicts, they have long been a problem in China. A report released in 2016 by the China Youth Association for Network Development showed that there were over 24 million young Internet addicts among China’s youn g urban Internet users. The report also said that over 18 million youths had a tendency to develop Internet addiction.

To deal with the problem of Internet addiction among teenagers, the Cyberspace Administration of China has released draft regulations which carried out a ban on online gaming. If the regulations are adopted，under-18s would be banned from playing online games between midnight and 8 am.

As soon as the government’s draft law surfaced, it drew great attention from the public. Some applauded the law as a way to better protect minors (未成年人)，saying that too much overnight gaming is harmful to minors’health and believing the period between midnight and 8 am to be vital to human physical functions. However, others wondered whether it would be practical if it came into effect, as minors could just borrow their parents’IDs to register accounts to play online games. The Guangming Daily suggested that parents should help their teenagers find a balance between the cyber world and the real world. China is by no means the only one trying to fight against teenager gaming addiction. Germany introduced a regulation in 2002 in an attempt to stop minors from playing online games from 10 pm to 6 am. Meanwhile，the UK，the US and Australia have forced a rating system on computer games to make sure that teenagers cannot access “adult” content such as violence，sex or bad language.

【答案】

Many teenagers in China have become addicted to overnight online games. Thus，the government released a draft law to solve the long-lasting issue. Some people welcomed the law because it is beneficial to the teenagers’ health，while others doubted whether it would be

effective. Actually, many other countries have also been making laws against the youth online addiction.

A group of scientists led by Song Mingyang at the Massachusetts General Hospital analyzed data from two major studies involving more than 150,000 participants to determine whether people who consumed protein(蛋白质) from red and processed meats had a significantly higher death rate than those who got their protein from plants. The analysis of the 32­year Nurses’ Health Study, followed by the Health Professionals Follow-Up Study at Harvard University，didn’t just look at the diets of the pa rticipants over a year. It stared repeatedly—specifically how often they consumed portions of particular types of food during the previous years—every four years.

Song’s team found that a 10 percent increase generally in proteins from animals result ed in a 2 percent increase in death，and an 8 percent rise in death risk from heart disease. But a 3 percent increase in protein from plants led to a 10 percent decrease in death and a 12 percent drop in risk of death from cardiovascular-related (心血管相关的) death.

“The findings are clear,” said Song.“A research fellow at the hospital’s Clinical and Translational Epidemiology Unit concluded that plant-based proteins from sources such as beans，nuts，quinoa and seeds are a healthier choice than steaks or beef products such as hot dogs. I wouldn’t suggest that everyone switch to people not eating any animal products. That’s because certain meats—chicken and fish，for example—also result in a much lower death risk overall and from heart disease.”

“But the tradi tional American diet，popular with animal products such as burgers，meatballs，meatloaf，steaks，eggs and dairy，is associated with a variety of bad outcomes, ” Song said. In some cases, it’s not just that meat is bad and plants are good. Processed meats are filled with potentially unhealthy additives (添加剂)．Song said he set about the study because while others have suggested healthy benefits from a plant-based diet, none looked at the source of protein. “We were able to link information over the years. The data from the two large, long-term studies provided a unique opportunity to look at long-term health outcomes, ” he said.
