時差N小時:工作的不安全感 Job insecurity

YAEL:Welcome to A Moment of Science, thepopular science radio show that's both fun andinformative.

雅艾爾:歡迎收聽既有趣又增進(jìn)知識的科普廣播節(jié)目科學(xué)時刻。

Today's Topic on Moment of Science is:You're Fired.

今天節(jié)目的話題是:你被解雇了。

Hey, did I read that right?

嘿,我這樣讀對嗎?

DON:Yep. You're fired. How do you feel?

唐:沒錯。你被解雇了。你感覺如何?

YAEL:Waddaya mean, how do I feel?

雅艾爾:伙計(jì)，你的意思是我的感覺?

DON:I mean, do you feel less healthythan before I fired you?

唐:我的意思是你覺得自己比我解雇你之前健康指數(shù)下降了嗎?

How's your weight? What about your cholesterol rate?

你的體重如何?你的膽固醇率如何?

YAEL:Okay, okay . . .this is one of your set-ups.

雅艾爾:好吧,好吧。。。原來是你的小計(jì)倆。

I'm not really fired, am I?

我不是真的被開除吧?

DON:Well, no. It's all a cruel ploy to get me to today's subject . . . which is that jobinsecurity can affect your health.

唐:嗯,肯定不會。這都是為了引出我今天的主題…即工作的不安全感可以影響你的健康。

YAEL:Yeah. It just about gave me a heart attack.

雅艾爾:是的。剛剛那條噩耗差點(diǎn)讓我心臟病發(fā)作。

DON:A study in the American Journal of Public Health shows that heart attacks are no joke forpeople who suspect they are going to be laid off.

唐：一項(xiàng)刊登在《美國公共衛(wèi)生雜志》的研究表明對于那些憂心忡忡自己會被解雇的人來說，心臟病可不是鬧著玩的。

Over four years, a study group with imperiled jobs was found to have a forty to sixty percentgreater occurrence of heart disease than a control group whose jobs were secure.

小組經(jīng)過4年的研究發(fā)現(xiàn)，相比那些工作穩(wěn)定之人，陷入危機(jī)的人心臟病發(fā)作的幾率要高百分之四十至六十。

And that's not all.

而且還不止這些。

People in insecure jobs also gained weight, overslept, tended to avoid exercise, and hadhigher cholesterol rates.

工作不穩(wěn)定的人還容易體重增加，失眠，總是拒絕運(yùn)動，進(jìn)而膽固醇偏高。

YAEL:Wow. I guess the shaky economy hurts everything. Even our bodies!

雅艾爾:哇。我想經(jīng)濟(jì)不穩(wěn)定會有害于一切。甚至是人們的身體!

DON:Even our bodies.

唐:是的，甚至是我們的身體。
