邊走路邊發(fā)短信 危險(xiǎn)！

在智能手機(jī)大行其道的今天，很多人一閑下來就會(huì)玩手機(jī)發(fā)短信，但更有些人不顧危險(xiǎn)，走路時(shí)都不忘低頭玩兒手機(jī)發(fā)短信。此前一項(xiàng)研究表明，邊走路邊發(fā)短信會(huì)影響身體平衡能力，讓人分不清東南西北。

The scientists warned that text-walkers are at risk of wandering in front of traffic and stumbling onto train tracks — and urged pedestrians to stop before type…Dr Schabrun said that people need to be educated on the dangers of text-walking.
科學(xué)家提醒說，邊走路邊發(fā)短信的人有可能在車流中出神游蕩，還有可能絆倒在車軌上，這非常危險(xiǎn)，他們敦促行人在發(fā)短信前停下來。Schabrun博士說，人們需要知曉邊走路邊發(fā)短信的危險(xiǎn)。

Idaho town Rexburg was among the first in the United States to impose a US$50 fine on anyone found crossing a street while texting on a phone. The law was enacted in April 2011 and signs were put up all over the city to remind pedestrians not to text-walk.
愛達(dá)荷的雷克斯堡是美國首批對(duì)邊走路邊發(fā)短信的行人處以50美元罰款的城鎮(zhèn)之一。這條法律于2011年4月起實(shí)行。該市到處豎起標(biāo)牌，提醒行人不要這樣做。

例句：

Text walking is just as bad as text driving, ha! Ok, time to break the habit…
邊走路邊發(fā)短信和邊開車邊發(fā)短信一樣糟糕，啊，我該改掉這個(gè)壞習(xí)慣了。
