Many of us have become so reliant on our smartphones, we use them to carry out a staggering 221 tasks every day.

我们中间有许多人如此依赖自己的智能手机，每天都要在手机上陆陆续续的完成221件事。

A study of 2,000 smartphone owners revealed that the average user reaches for their phone at 7:31am each morning, to check personal emails and Facebook.

一项研究对2000名智能手机用户进行了调查，发现这些用户一般都是每天早上7点半就开始看手机，查看电子邮箱和脸书网信息更新等等。
