新时代小孩：会玩iPhone却不会系鞋带？

当问到是否关心环境，三分之一的人回答“不”——其中一半人给出的理由是“将来他们能够生活在外太空。”

Survival expert Ray Mears said he was shocked by the findings, from electricity provider npower. He added: "I can't believe our young people are so ill-equipped when it comes to practical skills.

调查结果让供电节能npower公司的野外生存专家瑞・米尔表示很吃惊，他表示：“我没想到这些年轻人在面对实际技能时会如此缺乏经验。”

"When I was growing up, I was told 'You don't need equipment, you need knowledge to survive in the wild' and this is something that I truly believe. Simple skills like putting up a tent can teach you important lessons that can't be learnt without doing them yourself. "You learn how to work in a team and communicate with your peers as well as how to work under pressure and use logic.”

“在我的成长过程中，我的父母和老师就不断教导我‘你不需要什么工具，只需要在野外生存的常识’，这也是我一直所坚信的。如果你不亲身实践搭帐篷，是无法学习搭帐篷这样简单而重要的技能的。你要学习如何团队合作，和同伴交流，以及如何在压力之下运用逻辑思维能力。”

"Most importantly, you also learn how to look after yourself and know your strengths."In response to the research, npower has launched a new educational programme, called Climate Cops SOS. Working with Mr Mears, the company hopes to inject a passion for the great outdoors back in to the heart of the country's children.
