People who experience face blindness can have a hard time in their social life. They have trouble remembering or recognizing faces. The term ‘face blindness’ isn’t exactly accurate though. 1.. They just can’t put all the parts together into one coherent image that they remember and recognize when they see it again, which is why proper name for face blindness is prosopagnosia, or literally “not knowing the face”.
2. These clues include the way they sound (their voice or accent), the way they look (body size, shape or height), the way they smell, their clothing, their hair(style, colour or length) and obvious features on their face(beards, piercings heavy eyebrow, glasses).
3. Because they’re not always unique to one person and they can change. This is why face blindness can cause so much stress.
If you don’t experience face blindness, you’ve probably never given much thought to your ability to recognize familiar people or how important that is to your social interactions and feelings of safety. But imagine if you didn’t know whether the person approaching you is a friend or a stranger. 4.. Or imagine not being able to find the teacher when you need to use the toilet, because your teacher wears glasses and none of the adults in the room are wearing glasses today. 5..
A.These are important ways to remember someone’s face.
B.Do you say hello or just keep on walking?
C.Those with face blindness have to use other clues to recognize people.
D.It’s easy to see the effect this would have on your social skills and confidence.
E.These are much less effective ways to recognize someone.
F.There are tests you can take to get an idea about your face-recognizing abilities.
G.They actually can see faces.
This fall, Apple will roll out its newest update. It will offer parents greater control over content their kid views. Additionally, it will track the amount of time they spend using an iOS device. Following Google’s lead to deal with smartphone addiction(上瘾), new tools will include increased monitoring, usage time and activity reports.
Currently, Apple’s parental controls only allow for limiting usage of adult apps, music and video. There is growing public concern over unlimited exposure to social media for young people. Smartphone addiction combined with increased rates of distraction, suicide, and depression in teens led Apple to respond. It has developed better tools for monitoring content and control over iOS device usage for parents. For moms and dads looking to more effectively manage how their teen accesses iOS devices, the Screen Time, App Limits, and Down Time features will be of particular help.
Screen Time will generate daily and weekly reports detailing how many times users pick up their devices, the categories of apps and websites they use most often and the amount of time they spend interacting with each app.
According to public statements, Apple intends these reports to help users get a greater understanding of how they use their devices. They’re also intended to assist in making personal decisions about controls they’d like to have. This is especially helpful to parents who aren’t privy(准许知情) to specific apps and websites their kid is using or how long they use them each day. The new App Limits feature allows parents to set limits on time spent on websites, apps or a category of apps.
Also, parents will be able to set time periods for their child’s phone to be powered off. Down Time can be scheduled on devices. Parents can specify which apps can and can’t be used and when. If parents want to limit access to an entire category of apps, such as social media or gaming, during specified time periods for things like homework, diner, or bedtime, they can.
The new parental controls are account-based. Parents can access Screen Time to view reports and set limits on their teen’s device remotely(远程地) via devices connected through Family Sharing or directly from their teen’s device.
Totals for settings, usage reports, and limits set are based on usage across all of a users IOS devices. Thus, if a kid uses multiple iOS devices, he or she will reach a time limit on an app on their iPhone. The app will be inaccessible on their iPad as well. A screen notification will appear when a child is about to reach a time limit. The child can request more time from a parent.
This update is good news for those who wish to have better insight into teen smartphone usage. Parents, however, should keep communicating rules and guidelines for healthy tech habits.
