　　總體分析

　　本文主要論述了大眾媒介對青少年產(chǎn)生的影響。第一段指出，大眾媒介可以替代社會機構(gòu)和社會交往在年輕人的生活中起著各種各樣的作用。第二段指出，由于青少年模仿他們在電視中看到的乃至將其與現(xiàn)實相混淆，人們一直擔憂媒介對他們可能產(chǎn)生危害。第三段媒介對美的狹隘界定對青少年的不良影響。

　　全文翻譯

　　大眾媒體是我們文化的重要組成部分，但是它也可以成為年輕一代的助手、建議者和教師。大眾媒介作為許多機構(gòu)和社會交往的替代品影響著年輕人的生活。通過這種方式，它在人們生活中起到了各種各樣的作用。

　　在電視屏幕前耗費的時間常常是以休閑為代價的，即有更少的時間用于游戲、娛樂和休息。由于被電視屏幕上的東西吸引，孩子們不僅模仿他們看到的，而且還直接將自己視為電視中的各種不同的人物。美國人對媒體中暴力的普及及其對孩子和青少年的潛在危害的擔憂至少已經(jīng)有四十年了。在這段時期里，新的媒體，如：電視游戲、有線電視、音樂錄像帶以及網(wǎng)絡出現(xiàn)了。由于這些媒體繼續(xù)受到歡迎，它們連同電視一起引起了公眾的擔憂和研究的注意。

　　媒體使年輕一代受到社會另一大關(guān)注的方面是身體形象問題。外部力量能對身體形象產(chǎn)生正面和負面的影響。舉例來說，社會文化標準和大眾媒介的營銷沖擊著我們關(guān)于美的觀念。在大眾媒介中，標準美女的形象充斥著報刊雜志，從電視中播放出來，在電影中娛樂著我們。甚至大眾媒介還在廣告中利用公認的瘦和健康的文化價值來贏得商業(yè)利潤。青少年被給予的是狹隘界定的吸引力的標準，它是一種包含著對外形的不切實際的期望的完美標準。
