TENCENT announced yesterday that it will limit the daily time for youngsters to play its popular King of Glory game after parents and schools in Shanghai and other areas complained their children had become addicted to playing it.
在上海和其他地區(qū)的父母和學校投訴孩子們沉溺于王者榮耀之后，騰訊于昨天宣布將限制兒童每天玩這款當紅游戲的時間。

From tomorrow, children younger than 12 will only be allowed to play the game for a maximum of one hour a day, and after 9pm, they will be banned from logging into it, said Tencent. Juveniles older than 12 will be able to play a maximum two hours a day.
騰訊稱，從明天起，不到12歲的兒童每天最多只被允許玩一個小時，而且晚上9點之后，他們將被禁止登陸這款游戲。12歲以上的少年每天最多能玩兩個小時。

The game system will remind players the time they have been playing and young players will be forced to log out when the time is up.
該游戲系統(tǒng)將提醒玩家他們玩游戲的時間，而且時間一到，小玩家就會被迫下線。

Tencent claimed these were the strictest measures in China’s game industry to prevent addiction and the company expected they would ease parents’ anxiety.
騰訊聲稱，這是中國游戲行業(yè)防止玩游戲上癮的最嚴格的措施，該公司希望這些措施可以緩解父母們的焦慮。

The company also said it had updated its system for parents to monitor children using its games.
該公司還表示已更新了游戲系統(tǒng)，使父母可以監(jiān)督孩子玩游戲。

Since February, parents can receive messages when children log in and spend money on the game after they connect children’s game accounts with their mobile phone numbers.
自二月份起，父母把自己的手機號綁定到孩子的游戲賬戶之后，當孩子登陸游戲，并在游戲中付費的時候，父母就會收到短信。

Now, parents can connect phones, tablets or computers that their children use to play games, so that they can always keep an eye on the children even if they have several game accounts, Tencent said.
騰訊稱，如今父母可以綁定孩子們用來玩游戲的手機、平板電腦和電腦，即使孩子們有多個賬號，他們也可以隨時監(jiān)督孩子們。

Song Zhe, a father of a Shanghai high school student, welcomed the measures but was not sure if they would be sufficiently effective.
宋哲是上海一名高中生的父親，他很歡迎這些措施，但他不確定這些措施是否足夠有效。

“I like the system that could lock up the devices as children can register many accounts,” he said. “But children are so clever that they can always think out counter measures.”
“我喜歡這個系統(tǒng)，當孩子注冊了多個賬戶，我可以用這個系統(tǒng)來鎖定設備，”他說道。“但是孩子們那么聰明，他們總是能想出對策。”
