Virtual worlds are also useful for children
导读：随着电脑网络的普及应用，网络虚拟世界成为人们生活的一个重要组成部分。有人认为虚拟世界一无是处，但事实并非如此。
A research report says that virtual worlds can be important places where children practice what they will do in real life. The research was done with children using the BBC's Adventure Rock virtual world, aimed at those aged 6-12. ①It surveyed and interviewed children who were the first to test the game.
The online world is a theme island built for the BBC's children channel by Belgian game maker Larian. Children explore the world alone but they use message boards to share what they find and what they do in the different creative studios in virtual space.
At times children were explorers and they were social climbers ②eager to connect with other players. Some were power users looking for more information about how the virtual space really worked. The children could try all kinds of things without having to ③be afraid of the consequences that would follow if they tried them in the real world.

According to the study what children liked about virtual worlds was the chance to create content such as music, cartoons and videos.
The publishers of the report say that virtual worlds can be a powerful, engaging and real interactive alternative to more passive media. ④They urged creators of virtual spaces for children to get young people involved very early on because they really do have good ideas and they are very good critical friends.

网络世界是一个由比利时的游戏厂商Larian为BBC的儿童频道创建的主题岛。儿童独自探索世界，但他们使用留言板来分享他们的发现以及在虚拟空间中各创意工作室的所作所为。
有时候孩子们是探险家，他们想法进入上流社会，渴望与其他玩家取得联系。一些高级用户寻找更多有关如何在虚拟空间起作用的信息。孩子们可以尝试各种事物，而不必害怕他们在现实世界中他们尝试这样做可能出现的结果。他们学到了很多有用的社会技能以及用他们喜
