  Sleeping in a freshly made bed is the thing most likely to makepeople feel great according to new research.

  一項(xiàng)新的研究表明,睡在新鋪好的床上最容易讓人感覺(jué)美好。

  Changing the bed sheets may feel like a chore to some but thefeeling of sleeping in a freshly made bed has topped a list of the50 things that make us feel good with nearly two-thirds (62 percent) saying it is their favourite feel great moment.

  更換床單對(duì)一些人來(lái)說(shuō)可能是一件苦差事,但是睡在新鋪的床上卻位列“50件讓我們感到很棒的小事”之首,近三分之二(62%)的受訪者稱,這是他們最喜歡、感覺(jué)最好的時(shí)刻。

  The feeling of the sun on our face came second on the list (57 per cent) with people saying 'thankyou' or a random act of kindness from a stranger completing the top three.

  57%的人表示,陽(yáng)光灑在臉上的感覺(jué)很舒服,此項(xiàng)位列第二。第三則是,人們說(shuō)“謝謝”時(shí)或是陌生人一個(gè)善意的行為。

  The survey of 2000 people was conmissioned by Bupa to launch its Feel Great Britain campaign.Strictly come Dancing host Tess Daly is fronting the drive to encourage people to enjoy plenty offeel great moments to improve their overall health and well-being.

  保柏集團(tuán)(Bupa)發(fā)起了一項(xiàng)“讓英國(guó)人享受美好”的活動(dòng),該活動(dòng)對(duì)2000名英國(guó)人進(jìn)行了調(diào)查。英國(guó)真人秀節(jié)目《舞動(dòng)奇跡》主持人苔絲·達(dá)莉(Tess Daly)代言該活動(dòng)并鼓勵(lì)人們享受美好時(shí)刻,以提高整體健康水平和幸福感。

  Finding a bargain in the sales (41 per cent) and a cup of tea (39 per cent) were also among thefavourite feel great moments.

  買到便宜貨(41%的人投票)、喝一杯茶(39%的人投票)都是讓英國(guó)人感覺(jué)美好的瞬間。

  The top 50 also contained a number of more bizarre feel great moments including rainbows (23per cent) popping bubble wrap (20 per cent) dancing like no-one is watching (19 per cent) newstationary (11 per cent) the 'pop' when you open a new jam jar (nine per cent) and cleaning waxfrom your ears (eight per cent).

  前50項(xiàng)里面同樣包括一些比較怪誕的但卻令人感覺(jué)愉快的瞬間,例如:看到彩虹(23%)、擠包裝袋的泡泡(20%)、旁若無(wú)人的跳舞(19%)、得到了新文具(11%)、打開(kāi)果醬罐時(shí)“嘭”的一聲(9%)、掏耳朵(8%)。

  However the survey also revealed a worrying trend for how rarely people feel great. Just one ineight (12.5 per cent) said they have a 'feel great' moment more than once a month and almostone in five lacked inspiration.

  然而,調(diào)查也顯示了一個(gè)令人擔(dān)憂的趨勢(shì),人們很少會(huì)感覺(jué)很棒。只有八分之一(12.5%)的人稱他們一個(gè)多月才會(huì)感覺(jué)到心情不錯(cuò),近五分之一的人表示沒(méi)有什么鼓舞人心的事情。

  Stress (64 per cent) a lack of sleep (63 per cent) bad manners (51 per cent) financial pressures(50 per cent) and the weather (47 per cent) were the top reasons given for preventing peoplefrom feeling great.

  人們感覺(jué)不好的原因多來(lái)自于:壓力(64%)、睡眠不足(63%)、不禮貌行為(51%)、經(jīng)濟(jì)壓力(50%)和天氣(47%)。

  The findings also suggest that feeling great occurs more often later in life with 21 per cent of over55s saying they have a feel great moment every day. However 28 per cent of 25 to 34-year-oldsand 30 per cent of 45 to 54-year-olds only have a feel great moment once a week.

  研究結(jié)果表明,感覺(jué)很棒的時(shí)刻多出現(xiàn)在中老年時(shí)期,21%的55歲以上的人每天都會(huì)有感覺(jué)很棒的時(shí)刻。然而,28%的年齡在25—34歲的人以及30%的45—54歲的人平均一周才會(huì)有一次這種感覺(jué)。

  Tess Daly Bupa's Feel Great Britain ambassador said: "We all have those little things that make usfeel great - for me it's feeling the sun on my face.

  保柏“讓英國(guó)人享受美好”這一活動(dòng)的形象大使苔絲·達(dá)莉(Tess Daly)說(shuō)道:“每個(gè)人都有能讓心情變好的小招數(shù),對(duì)于我來(lái)說(shuō),陽(yáng)光照在臉上的感覺(jué)美極了。”

  "With modern society being so busy people struggle to find the time and lack the inspiration toenjoy a feel great moment."

  “現(xiàn)代社會(huì)的人們太匆忙,很難有時(shí)間也缺乏靈感來(lái)享受美好時(shí)刻。”

  Dr Paula Franklin UK Medical Director at Bupa said: "People seem to find it easy to name thethings that make them feel great but unfortunately people don't report very many feel greatmoments.

  保柏的醫(yī)學(xué)總監(jiān)保拉·富蘭克林博士說(shuō):“人們似乎很容易就能說(shuō)出使他們感覺(jué)美好的事情,但是不幸的是人們說(shuō)不出多少這樣的美好時(shí)刻。”

  "Feeling great can really help people improve their health and well-being. As a nation we could do alot more for our mind body and soul and that is why Bupa is launching Feel Great Britain toprovide inspiration and opportunities for Britons to enjoy their feel great moments."

  “好的心情的確有益于提高人們的健康水平,增強(qiáng)幸福感。作為一位國(guó)民,我們可以為我們的身體、精神、心靈健康做很多的事情,保柏發(fā)起的這項(xiàng)‘享受美好’活動(dòng),旨在為英國(guó)人提供靈感與機(jī)會(huì)去享受生命中的美好時(shí)刻。”
