数码毒品

    Dosing 意为服药，数码产品与毒品有什么联系呢？请看对话：

    A: My nephew recently became addicted to music. He seems to bring his MP3 player everywhere and wear his earphones all the time.

    B: Keep an eye on him. Kids these days are apparently i-Dosing — using “digital music drugs” to get high just like taking drugs. MP3s are a gateway drug.

    A: Oh, really? Music can result in the same feelings as taking drugs?

    B: Maybe a certain type of repetitive drone-like music can. It looks like anti-drug campaigns should extend to the digital world.

    Note: I-Dosing is the use of auditory tones in an attempt to alter consciousness in ways that mimic recreational drugs. The technique involves playing two different tones simultaneously to produce a perceived tone inside the head to alter brainwaves.
