cold简单

In a recent study [involving] over 400 healthy adults, researchers from Carnegie Mellon University in Pennsylvania examined the effects of perceived social support and the receipt of hugs [on] the participants’ susceptibility to developing the common cold after being [exposed] to the virus.

在最近一项{{5}}400多名健康成年人的研究中，宾夕法尼亚州卡内基梅隆大学的研究人员考察了感知到的社会支持和获得拥抱{{6}}参与者在{{7}}病毒后患普通感冒易感性的影响。

People who perceived greater social support were less likely to come [down] with a cold, and the researchers [calculated] that the stress-reducing effects of hugging [explained] about 32 percent of that beneficial effect.

感知到更多社会支持的人患{{8}}感冒的可能性更小，研究人员{{9}}，拥抱的减压作用{{10}}了这一有益效果的约32%。

[Even] among those who got a cold, the ones who felt greater social support and received more frequent hugs had less severe [symptoms].

{{11}}在那些得了感冒的人中，感受到更多社会支持、更常得到拥抱的人{{12}}也较轻。

“Hugging protects people who are under stress from the [increased] risk for colds that’s usually [associated] with stress,” notes Sheldon Cohen, a professor of psychology at Carnegie.

“拥抱能保护处于压力之下的人，使其免受通常与压力{{14}}的感冒风险{{13}}的影响，”卡内基梅隆大学心理学教授谢尔顿·科恩指出。

Nagpur’s plan, for instance, calls for hospitals to set aside “cold wards” in the summer for treating heatstroke patients, and advises builders to give construction laborers a break from work on very hot days.

例如，那格浦尔的计划要求医院在夏季预留“降温病房”来治疗中暑病人，并建议建筑商在酷热天气让建筑工人停工休息。

[On] a cold winter’s day, few culinary pleasures can [match] it.

在寒冷的冬日，很少有哪种美食享受能与之媲美。

To the men and women who [served] in World War Ⅱ and the people they liberated, the G.I. was the [common] man grown into hero, the poor farm kid torn away from his home, the guy who [bore] all the burdens of battle, who slept in cold foxholes, who went without the [necessities] of food and shelter, who stuck it out and drove back the Nazi reign of murder.

对于二战中服役的男男女女以及被他们解放的人们来说，大兵是成长为英雄的普通人，是被迫离开家园的贫苦农家孩子，是承受了战争一切重负的人，他睡在冰冷的散兵坑里，缺衣少食、无处栖身，却坚持到底，击退了纳粹的杀戮统治。
