Türk Mutfağı

Menemen

Unlike her grandmother's generation, Chloe's age group is spending so much time on their phones at home that they are missing out on spending time with their friends in real life. Sheila, on the other hand, has made contact with old friends from school she hasn't heard from in forty years. 'We use Facebook to arrange to meet all over the country,' she says. 'It's changed my social life completely.'

Teenagers might have their parents to thank for their smartphone and social media addiction as their parents were the early adopters of the smartphone. Peter, 38 and father of two teenagers, reports that he used to be on his phone or laptop constantly. 'I was always connected and I felt like I was always working,' he says. 'How could I tell my kids to get off their phones if I was always in front of a screen myself?' So, in the evenings and at weekends, he takes his SIM card out of his smartphone and puts it into an old-style mobile phone that can only make calls and send text messages. 'I'm not completely cut off from the world in case of emergencies, but the important thing is I'm setting a better example to my kids and spending more quality time with them.'

Is it only a matter of time until the generation above and below Peter catches up with the new trend for a less digital life?

Vol. 76 ロジェさんとN1の単語の話し合い。

「断捨離（だんしゃり）」という言葉を聞いたことがありますか。簡単（かんたん）に言うと、物を捨てて、自由な時間と空間を持てば、心も自由になるという考え方です。私は毎朝毎晩、スマホがどこへ行ったか、さがしている人なので、耳が痛いです。けれども、今なら、服だけなら、できるかもしれない。なぜなら日本は「衣替え（ころもがえ）」の季節だから。私は無事（ぶじ）「衣替え」をすませて、心のリセットができたのでしょうか。
