逐句精讲：

I imagine many of you are familiar with my internet addiction.

I imagine：表达假设或推测的句型，相当于“我想象”或“我猜测”。

many of you：集合名词，表示“你们中的很多人”

be familiar with：短语动词，意思是“对……熟悉”。

internet addiction：名词短语，“互联网瘾、上网成瘾”。

Why? Well, because I talk about it all the time.

Well：语气词，表示说话者在思考或强调。

I talk about it all the time：意思是“我总是在谈论它”。其中 all the time 是一个固定词组，表示“始终，总是”。

And I imagine some of you are sick of hearing me talk about it. I understand that as well.

some of you：集合名词，表示“你们中的一些人”。

are sick of：短语动词，表示“对……感到厌烦”。

hearing me talk about it：动名词短语，作为介词 of 的宾语，表示“听我谈论它”。

However, the journey to finding healthy balance with the Internet and technology at large is an ongoing journey that humanity as a whole is going through all at once.

However：连词，表示转折，意思是“然而”。

the journey to finding healthy balance：名词短语，意思是“寻找健康平衡的旅程”。这里的 to 之后跟的是 finding（动名词），to在这里作为介词使用，因此需要用 “finding” 作为动名词来表示动作的名词化。

• 当to作为不定式时：表示目的或意图。例如：I want to find a solution.（我想找到一个解决方案。）
• 当to作为介词时：后面需要跟动名词。例如：I look forward to finding a solution.（我期待找到一个解决方案。）

with the Internet and technology：介词短语，修饰 balance，意思是“在互联网和技术方面”。

at large：means considering the subject as a whole rather than focusing on specific parts. 普遍地，总体上。

an ongoing journey：表示“是一个持续的旅程”。ongoing 形容词，意思是“进行中的，持续的”。

that humanity as a whole is going through all at once：定语从句，修饰 journey，表示“全人类同时正在经历”。humanity as a whole 意思是“全人类”。go through 是动词短语，意思是“经历”。all at once 固定表达，意思是“一起，同时”。

Don't pretend like you don't have an issue with internet addiction, listen, it's different for all of us.

pretend / prɪˈtend / 假装

issue / ˈɪʃuː / 问题，麻烦

listen：插入语，用来引起听众的注意，类似于“听着”。

Some of us are better at managing internet addiction than others, but I would argue we're all in one way or another addicted to the internet and addicted to technology in a way that is not good for our well-being overall.

be better at doing：更擅长于做某事

manage / ˈmænɪdʒ / to be able to solve your problems, deal with a difficult situation, etc. 能解决（问题）；应付（困难局面等）

argue / ˈɑːrɡjuː / to give reasons why you think that sth is right/wrong, true/not true, etc., especially to persuade people that you are right 论证；说理；争辩

in one way or another：固定短语，意思是“以某种方式”或“无论怎样”。

addicted to sth：对某事上瘾的。

in a way：是介词短语，意思是“以某种方式”。

that is not good for：定语从句，修饰“a way”，that 引导定语从句，意思是“以一种对……不好的方式”。

well-being： general health and happiness 健康；安乐；康乐

over·all /ˌoʊvərˈɔːl/：including all the things or people that are involved in a particular situation; general 全面的；综合的；总体的
