1、Cell Phone Safety Tips使用手机的安全准则The recent report by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) about the potential connection between cell phone use and cancer is big news to media outposts and the general public. Prior to the report, scientists told us no evidence existed that cell phon

The potential villains in this scenario are radiofrequency electromagnetic fields, which are emitted by a cell phones antenna, and which the agency says ma

7、raging texting or using a landline instead.中文译文：近期，国际癌症研究署发布了一则关于手机和癌症有潜在联系的报告，引起了各大媒体和公众的注意。在发布这则报告之前，科学家告诉我们没有证据能证明手机是致癌的。现在呢？国际癌症研究机构称，目前已有研究证明手机可能会致癌的事实。潜在的致癌因素是由手机天线产生的射频电磁场，研究院称这种辐射可能与两种脑肿瘤有联系。世界卫生组织将对该报告做进一步研究并于七月发布了一份声明和准则。到那时，就要牢牢记住这些安全聊天的小诀窍：1、少讲电话，多发短信你的头部离电话越远，大脑受到辐射能量风险就越小。如需要转达信息或问问题，发短息而不是打电话。2、尽量缩短通话时间电话会议和长时间的闲聊应该用座机。当你需要大移动电话时，保持简短和亲切。3、多用耳机除了座机，用免提设备像耳机或者用扬声器电话交谈（公开场合前者更好）。4、尽量少让小孩用电话由于小孩的头骨比成人小得多，而他们的神经系统也仍处于发育阶段，研究人员认为孩子们患上手机相关癌症的风险更大。他们还将面临比父辈更长的潜在有害辐射。在了解到更多手机可能致癌信息之前，控制小孩使用手机的习惯，鼓励他们多发短息、多用座机。
