双语对照

第一段

原文：While picking up the phone when it rings may feel like a natural reaction, for many young people, answering a call has become an anxiety - inducing experience.

译文：天然电话铃声响起时接起电话可能嗅觉是一种天然响应，但对许多年青东说念主来说，接电话已成为一种激勉暴燥的体验。

第二段

原文：Instead of calling, younger generations are relying on texts, voice notes, and social media to communicate, avoiding the spontaneity of real - time conversation, causing more and more people to be [scared of making a phone call]. The phenomenon even has a name—telephobia.

译文：年青一代不再打电话，而是依靠短信、语音留言和外交媒体进行交流，幸免及时对话的自觉性，这使得越来越多的东说念主[短促打电话]。这种气候甚而有了一个名字——电话懦弱症。

第三段

原文：Stephanie Wijkstrom, CEO and Founder of the Counseling and Wellness Center of Pittsburgh, told Newsweek: “[Telephobia is] an intense fear or discomfort of phone calls. Those who experience it often exhibit anxiety, avoidance behaviors, and sometimes physical symptoms such as an elevated heart rate or perspiration when anticipating a phone call.”

译文：匹兹堡盘考与健康中心的首席推论官兼创举东说念主斯蒂芬妮·维克斯托姆告诉《新闻周刊》：“（电话懦弱症是）对打电话的热烈懦弱或不适。有这种症状的东说念主在预期要打电话时，庸俗会显露出暴燥、袒护步履，巧合还会出现心率加速或出汗等身段症状。”

第四段

原文：In a 2024 Uswitch survey of 2,000 U.K. adults, nearly 70 percent of those aged 18 - 34 preferred texting over talking, with 23 percent admitting they never answer calls at all. The reluctance to pick up the phone is often linked to avoiding scam calls, but social factors also play a role.

译文：在2024年Uswitch对2000名英国成年东说念主进行的一项考察中，18至34岁的东说念主群中近70%的东说念主更心爱发短信而不是打电话，23%的东说念主承认他们根柢从不接电话。不肯接电话时时与幸免专揽电话关系，但社会身分也起到了一定作用。

第五段

原文：Wijkstrom explained: “In our digital age, texting and online messaging serve as our primary modes of communication, and we often feel less vulnerable and more comfortable than in a live conversation or phone call. Plus, social media contributes to the environment of curated interactions and, in turn, causes phone calls to feel overwhelming from their spontaneity.”

译文：维克斯托姆评释注解说：“在咱们这个数字期间，短信和在线音信是咱们主要的交流形式，与及时对话或打电话比拟，咱们庸俗会合计我方不那么容易受到伤害，也更从容。此外，外交媒体营造了一种用心筹办互动的环境，进而使得打电话因其自觉性而让东说念主感到难以应付。”

第六段

原文：In some places, there are already steps to tackle the issue of telephobia in young people. Nottingham College in the U.K. has started running sessions to help students build their confidence on the phone. Its ‘Five Steps to Telephone Confidence’ session was developed after career advisors noticed students struggling with phone interviews. Liz Baxter, a careers advisor at the college, told Newsweek: “It is increasingly difficult to make calls these days—companies use virtual assistants, AI, and often direct customers to websites. Teenagers find it easier to text or leave voice notes, meaning they have fewer experiences with real - time conversation and response formulation.”

译文：在一些场合，如故禁受步履来措置年青东说念主的电话懦弱症问题。英国的诺丁汉学院如故运转举办课程，匡助学生设立打电话的信心。该学院的“电话自信五步走”课程是在任业照管人防范到学生在电话口试中遭受贫瘠后蛊惑的。学院的业绩照管人利兹·巴克斯特告诉《新闻周刊》：“如今打电话越来越难了——公司使用造谣助手、东说念主工智能，还庸俗领导客户考察网站。青少年合计发短信或留语音留言更容易，这意味着他们进行及时对话和组织恢复的教会更少。”

第七段

原文：Baxter explained that young people do have strong communication skills, particularly when gaming online with friends, but struggle with the formality and immediacy of phone calls. “Texts allow them to think (and overthink) their responses, hence their preference for this. With a live call there is a palpable fear of failure. What if I say the wrong thing? What if I don’t know the answer?” she said.

译文：巴克斯特评释注解说，年青东说念主照实有很强的换取智力，尤其是在和一又友一说念玩网罗游戏时，但他们在移交电话的负责性和即时性方面存在贫瘠。“短信让他们有期间念念考（甚而过度念念考）我方的回复，这便是他们更心爱短信的原因。而在及时通话中，较着能嗅觉到对失败的懦弱。如若我说错话了如何办？如若我不知说念谜底如何办？”她说。

第八段

原文：“Our sessions help students realize that this can be a developing skill. It won’t be sorted in one 30 - minute session, but if they commit to being open - minded about it, maybe speaking to their friends instead of voice noting them, and then gradually moving on to making calls to test themselves in more formal environments, it can make a massive difference.”

译文：“咱们的课程匡助学生坚决到这是一项不错培养的妙技。这不会在一次30分钟的课程中就得到措置，但如果他们显示以灵通的心态对待这件事，比如和一又友获胜通话而不是发语音留言，然后逐步过渡到在创新型的环境中打电话来考验我方，这会有很大的不同。”

第九段

原文：While texting and social media are deeply embedded in modern communication, phone conversations remain a crucial skill for job interviews, professional networking, and sharing important news. Thankfully, beating telephobia is possible.

译文：天然短信和外交媒体已深深融入当代交流形式，但电话交谈仍然是求职口试、专科东说念主脉拓展和共享遑急音信的一项要道妙技。值得运道的是，克服电话懦弱症是有可能的。

第十段

原文：Wijkstrom said: “With patience and intentional practice, telephobia can be overcome. Exploring and understanding the root of the fear is a helpful starting position. Individuals can also slowly increase their exposure to phone calls in a low - pressure situation to desensitize an anxious response. Deep breathing before a call is one method to practice mindfulness, which can help regulate the nerves and reduce stress.”

译文：维克斯托姆说：“有耐烦并挑升地熟习，电话懦弱症是不错克服的。探索并了解懦弱的根源是一个成心的起先。个东说念主也不错在低压力的情况下缓缓增多打电话的次数，以拖沓暴燥响应。打电话前深呼吸是一种熟习正念的智商，有助于治疗神经、拖沓压力。”
