屏幕时间

(pínɡmù shíjiān) 

A: I've been constantly feeling lethargic lately and my eyes are always sore.

我最近总感觉昏昏沉沉的,眼睛发酸。

(wǒ zuìjìn zǒnɡ ɡǎnjué hūnhūnchénchénde, yǎnjīnɡ fāsuān.) 

B: Have you been looking at your phone too much? If you open up your phone's UI, you should be able to see your screen time. 

是不是手机看多了? 打开手机界面,应该可以看到你的屏幕时间。

(shìbùshì shǒujī kànduōle? dǎkāi shǒujī jièmiàn, yīnɡɡāi kěyǐ kàndào nǐde pínɡmù shíjiān.)

A: Really? Let me look. Last week, my average screen time was 8 hours a day.

是吗,我看看,我上周的平均每天屏幕时间是8小时。

(shìma,wǒkànkàn,wǒ shànɡzhōu de pínɡjūn měitiān pínɡmù shíjiān shì bāxiǎoshí.)

B: No wonder! You spend one third of your time looking at your phone. You really should let your neck and eyes rest a bit.

难怪！三分之一的时间你都用来看手机了。你真的该让颈椎和眼睛休息休息了。

A: From today on, I'm not going to play with my phone and head to sleep early!

今天开始,不玩手机早点睡！
