【来源：易教网 更新时间：2018-03-12】

大街上，商场中，校园里，随处可见戴着耳机的人们沉浸在自己的世界里。外面的世界太嘈杂，他们只是想把自己从周围环境中抽离。

Walkman effect refers to the disengagement from surrounding public space caused by the use of technology, such as a portable music player.

“随身听效应”指的是由于使用便携式音乐播放器等科技产品，使人们从周围的公共环境中脱离出来。

The Walkman Effect is the phenomenon that occurs when an individual creates a seemingly personal environment through portable devices, usually accompanied by head/earphones.

当一个人使用耳机等便携设备创造出私人环境时，“随身听效应”这种现象就产生了。

This effect can be seen everywhere. For example, a student walking to a class with headphones, a janitor vacuuming the floor while listening to music, or an employee working at a cubicle with music blasting in his ears. This term was coined by Shuhei Hosokawa in 1984.

这种现象随处可见。比如学生戴着耳机走进教室、清洁工听着音乐打扫地板、在隔间工作的员工听着音乐上班。这个说法是1984年由细川修平创造出的。

In the years since Hosokawa described the Walkman effect, unspoken rules for using headphones in public spaces have developed and are largely respected. Often this simply means knowing when and where to remove them.

自从细川描述“随身听效应”后的这些年，在公共场所使用耳机的潜规则就发展起来，并受到大家的普遍尊重。通常这意味着使用者知道何时何地该取掉耳机。
