究中英惯用例句:
| - 虽然大约有1300万的美国人现在没有工作，不过那些有工作的人现在可能要去担心一件奇怪的事情：根据一项新的研究显示，升职可能对你有害。
While some 13 million Americans are out of work these days, those still with jobs might have a strange new thing to worry about--getting a promotion can be bad for you, a new study suggests. - 英国的研究人员发现，当人们获得提升时，他们平均会增加10%的精神压力，而且还往往找不出时间去看医生。
British researchers found that when people get promoted, they suffer on average about 10 percent more mental strain and are less likely to find the time to go to the doctor. - 升职的人表示，升职后他们去看医生的次数减少了20%。研究者们认为这是由于新工作的压力和时间的突然减少造成的。
Those who were promoted reported on average a 20 percent fall in their visits to a doctor following their promotion. The researchers figure this owed to the stress of the new job and the sudden lack of time. - 根据英国年度调查资料所进行的这项研究，涵盖了大约1000名刚获提升的人。这项研究结果将会在这月底的皇家经济协会的会议上发表。
The research, using data from an annual survey of Brits, included information about about 1, 000 people who had been promoted. The findings will be presented later this month at a conference of the Royal Economic Society. - 要与恐惧斗争，首先要认识恐惧。要记住头疼、胃疼、失眠和心跳加速都是焦虑的症状。麻省大学医学院心神贯注研究中心执行主任SakiSantorelli说，应该通过说出来，甚至通过说出“我害怕这个”，来勇敢地面对这种感觉。承认焦虑可以使我们变得更积极、更坚强，因而也就更能对付它。
The first step toward combating fear is identifying it. Keep in mind that headaches, stomachaches, sleeplessness and rapid heartbeat are all symptoms of anxiety. Confront the emotion head-on by naming it, even saying, "I feel fear about this, " says Saki Santorelli, executive director of the University of Massachusetts Medical School's Center for Mindfulness. Acknowledging anxiety makes us less passive, less vulnerable and, as a result, more able to cope. - 减轻压力最有效的办法之一就是将注意力集中到我们可以有效控制的东西上－－我们自己的呼吸。在头脑－身体医学院，参加者通过呼气时反复轻声默念一个单词（任何单词，可以是"om"或"HailMary"），来达到一个“放松的反应”。通过许多次研究，Benson发现该练习可以使参加者血压降低，呼吸变缓，从而达到全身的平静。
One of the most efficient ways to reduce stress is to focus inward on one thing we can effectively control: our own breath. At the Mind/Body Medical Institute, participants elicit a "relaxation response, " repeating a word - anything from "om" to "Hail Mary"--silently as they exhale. In numerous studies, Benson has found that the practice leads to lower blood pressure, slower breathing and an overall calm. - 最近，Wisconsin－Madison大学的RichardDavidson发现由心神贯注研究中心首创的一种冥想呼吸法能够对大脑产生影响。在一个小范围进行并即将发表的研究中，Davidson对一家生物技术公司的25名员工的大脑进行了成像，这些员工每周练习冥想6天，共练习了8周。他发现他们大脑额叶前部的左侧激活的情况有所增加，而这一部位与较低的焦虑水平、积极的情绪和大脑恐惧中心扁桃核的抑制相关。
Richard Davidson at the University of Wisconsin-Madison recently found that a form of meditative breathing pioneered at the Center for Mindfulness can affect the brain. In a small, soon-to-be-published study, Davidson took brain images of 25 members of a biotech firm who practiced meditation six days a week for eight weeks. He found increased activation in the left side of the prefrontal part of the brain, an area associated with lower anxiety, positive emotion and inhibition of the amygdala, the brain's fear center. - 科学家发现彻底不考虑这些问题很有帮助。迈阿密大学触觉研究所所长TiffanyField在对由于安德鲁飓风而受到心理创伤的60名在校儿童的研究中发现，连续一个月、每周接受两次30分钟按摩的孩子其忧郁情况有所下降，而那些看放松内容的录像片的孩子则没有什么改观。作为人的压力标记的皮质醇水平在接受按摩的一组中也出现了相当程度的下降。如果你不喜欢按摩，那也可以出去好好走一走、游游泳或骑骑车。锻炼不仅有利于保持身体健康，而且能减少焦虑和忧郁。
Scientists are finding that it can help to get outside your head completely. In a study of 60 schoolchildren traumatized by Hurricane Andrew, Tiffany Field, director of the University of Miami's Touch Research Institute, found that depression dropped in kids who received 30 minutes of massage twice a week for a month，kids who watched a relaxing video showed no improvement. And cortisol levels, the body's marker for stress, declined significantly in the massage group. If massage isn't your thing, go for a vigorous walk, swim or bike ride. Exercise is not only good at keeping you fit，it reduces anxiety and depression, too. - 研究者们说，尽管做起来很难，但是在多事之秋，人们需要从生活的最简单的快乐中获取安慰。在Rochester大学医学院进行的一次小范围调查中，O.J.Sahler博士发现在骨髓移植病人中，那些听音乐的反应感到的疼痛和恶心程度比较轻，而且他们移植的骨髓也更早就开始工作。另外，笑可能确实是良药。LomaLinda大学公共卫生学院的LeeBerk博士发现一组看了一小时喜剧录像的学生其肾上腺素和皮质醇水平都出现了显著下降。“如果你非常害怕，”Berk说，“那就看小丑表演吧。”这才是值得我们好好考虑的东西。
It may be difficult, but in troubled times, researchers say, people need to take comfort from life' s simplest pleasures.In a small study at the University of Rochester School of Medicine, Dr. O. J. Sahler found that bone-marrow transplant patients who listened to music reported less pain and nausea, and their transplants took less time to become functional. And, yes, laughter may be good medicine, too. Dr. Lee Berk, of the Loma Linda University School of Public Health, discovered that a group of students who watched a comic video for an hour had marked reductions in epinephrine and cortisol levels. "If fear is too great, " says Berk, "send in the clowns." Now that's something we can all meditate on. - 他把毕生献给科学研究。
He devoted his life to the study of science. - 政府已在37间学校进行小班教学研究。
The government had also been undertaking a study on small-class teaching in 37 schools. - 我得研究研究。
I'll see what I can do. - 你终究会明白的。
You'll see. - 你终究会明白的。
You'll find out soon enough.
