學(xué)齡前兒童接觸聯(lián)網(wǎng)設(shè)備的人數(shù)有所增加

Three out of four children under-five now has access to a tablet, smartphone or computer, according to a study.

一項(xiàng)研究顯示，在5歲以下的兒童中，有3/4的兒童如今能夠接觸到平板電腦、智能手機(jī)或電腦。

Market researcher Child wise asked more than 1,000 UK parents about their pre-schooler offspring's media habits.

市場(chǎng)研究機(jī)構(gòu)Childwise就學(xué)齡前子女使用媒體的習(xí)慣詢問(wèn)了1000多名英國(guó)父母。

It said three-quarters of the children had access to a connected device and most of the three- and four-year-olds had their own tablet or PC.

該研究指出，四分之三的兒童可以使用聯(lián)網(wǎng)設(shè)備，大多數(shù)三至四歲的兒童都有自己的平板電腦或個(gè)人電腦。

"The increasing use of connected devices by preschoolers this year may reflect growing access to on-demand services, especially subscription-based options such as Netflix, which has quickly risen through the ranks over the last three to four years," said research manager Jenny Ehren.

調(diào)研經(jīng)理珍妮·埃倫表示：“今年，處于學(xué)齡前的兒童越來(lái)越多地使用互聯(lián)網(wǎng)設(shè)備，這可能反映出人們?cè)絹?lái)越多地需要播業(yè)務(wù)，特別是像Netflix那樣可訂閱的服務(wù)，這項(xiàng)服務(wù)在近三到四年增長(zhǎng)飛快。”

Overall, the study indicated that children were typically spending an average of two hours and 48 minutes a day -- up from two hours and 36 minutes last year and two hours and 24 minutes in 2014 -- watching video content in all its forms.

總的來(lái)說(shuō)，該研究顯示，現(xiàn)在兒童平均每天要花2小時(shí)48分鐘的時(shí)間在觀看各種形式的視頻內(nèi)容上，而去年是2小時(shí)36分鐘，2014年則是2小時(shí)24分鐘。

But boys were said to watch for longer periods of time.

但是男孩看的時(shí)間要更長(zhǎng)一些。

Voice-recognition gadgets such as Apple's Siri and Amazon's Alexa were also said to be increasingly popular with the age group.

像蘋(píng)果的Siri和亞馬遜的Alexa這樣的語(yǔ)音識(shí)別小工具，在該年齡段的兒童中也日益普及。

But the children remain interested in offline activities too. And there was an increase in the number of parents reporting their children were engaged in arts and crafts and going to the library outside of school.

不過(guò)兒童仍舊對(duì)線下活動(dòng)感興趣。報(bào)告孩子參加藝術(shù)和手工藝活動(dòng)、去校外圖書(shū)館的父母人數(shù)有所增加。
