夜雨聆风
为什么是这道题？
你有没有想过——为什么短视频和社交软件总是"刷不到底"？为什么它们没有"这一页结束了"的提示？2025 年，新加坡南洋理工大学的研究者一针见血地指出：你停不下来，往往不是因为你自制力差，而是因为这些功能本来就是被设计成让你停不下来的。
这种"揭穿设计套路 + 把'自责'还原成'被设计' + 赋予学生掌控感"的题材，是命题人最爱的科技伦理方向。小忆按命题人偏好的议论文骨架改写出下面这道题。
模拟题原文
Have you ever planned to spend "just five minutes" on your phone, only to look up an hour later? If so, you might blame yourself for having weak self-control. But before you do, consider this: the app was built to make you keep going.
Think about an old-fashioned book. It has pages, and a last page. When you reach the end, you naturally stop. Now think about a social media feed. It never ends. This design is called "infinite scroll," and it was created on purpose. With no edges, no final page, and no natural stopping point, your brain is never given the small signal that says, "You're done now." So you keep scrolling.
Other features work the same way. Videos that play automatically mean you never have to choose to watch the next one—it just begins, and stopping now requires effort. Bright red notification dots are designed to pull your eyes back. None of this happens by accident. These are careful choices made by companies whose business depends on keeping your attention as long as possible.
Researchers at Nanyang Technological University argue that the answer isn't simply to tell young people to "try harder." They call for "default-on safeguards"—features built into apps that help users pause, such as gentle reminders to take a break, or a screen that asks "Are you still watching?" If a design can be used to trap attention, they say, a design can also be used to return it.
Understanding this changes everything. The problem was never that you are weak. The problem is a system built to defeat your willpower. And once you see the trap clearly, you can step around it—turn off autoplay, set a timer, put the phone in another room. You can't always win a fight you don't know you're in. But once you see it, the power shifts back to you.

01 · 解题策略
核心抓三句话：第 1 段末"the app was built to make you keep going"（立靶反转）、第 5 段"The problem is a system built to defeat your willpower"（金句）、末段"once you see it, the power shifts back to you"（升华）。
02 · 源头分析
源头是新加坡 南洋理工大学 2025 年研究中提出的核心主张——与其要求年轻人"再自律一点"，不如让平台内置 "default-on safeguards"（默认开启的防护功能），如 scroll breaks（滚动间歇）、时间提示等，"把注意力还给它真正的主人"。背后是对"注意力经济"的批判：infinite scroll、autoplay 等都是工程师刻意设计的留存机制。。
03 · 做对题，更做对人
这篇文章想给你的，不是又一句"少玩手机"的唠叨，而是一个视角的转变。当你又一次刷了一小时、然后陷入"我怎么这么没用"的自责时——请记住：那不全是你的错，你是在跟一整支工程师团队较劲，他们的工作就是让你停不下来。
但"不全是你的错"不等于"你无能为力"。恰恰相反——看清了陷阱，你就能绕开它：关掉自动播放、设一个倒计时、把手机放到够不着的地方。这些动作之所以有用，是因为它们把"需要费力才能停下"反过来，变成"需要费力才能继续"。你不是要赢过自己的意志力，你是要给意志力卸下不公平的担子。
你打不赢一场你不知道自己身处其中的仗——但一旦看清了，主动权就回到你手里。
停不下来不是你的错——但看清它，就是你的本事。
