　　：如何避免節後綜合症

　　 How to Avoid Post-Holiday Syndrome

　　Recently, a catchword “post-holiday syndrome” has caught our attention, which refers to a general feeling of depression before returning to work, including fatigue, lack of appetite and concentration, irritability and feeling of helplessness, etc. The syndrome has negative impacts on our life, our work, our study and our health. So what can we do to avoid post-holiday syndrome?

　　最近，一個流行語“節後綜合症”引起了我們的注意，這是指人們在從假期返回工作前的一種抑鬱的心情，包括疲倦感，食慾不振，缺乏注意力，煩躁和無助感等等。這種綜合徵已對我們的生活、工作、學習以及我們的健康產生了負面的影響。我們能做什麼來避免節後綜合症?

　　As the syndrome is usually caused by irregular lifestyles during the vacation, thus the most effective way to avoid the syndrome is to avoid such irregular lifestyles in the vacation. For example, we had better keep the same lifestyle as the usual, like get up on time, go to bed on time, so that we would not make our life irregular. If we can keep such regular and healthy lifestyles all the time, we would not suffer the post-holiday syndrome.

　　該病通常是由於人們度假期間不規律的生活方式導致的，因此避免患上綜合徵最有效的方法是改掉這種假期中的不規律生活方式。例如，我們最好保持與平時一樣的生活方式，即按時起床，按時睡覺，這樣就不會使得我們的生活方式不律。如果我們能一直保持這樣正常而健康的生活方式，我們就不會患上節後綜合症。

　　On the other hand, keeping positive and relaxed is another way to avoid and deal with the post-holiday syndrome. Keeping positive and relaxed will help us view things from a positive way and keep away from negative mood.

　　此外，另一種方式避免患上或治癒節後綜合症的方式就是保持積極、輕鬆的心態。保持積極和輕鬆的將有助於我們從一個積極的方式來看待事物,遠離負面情緒。

　　In a word, leading a regular and healthy life and keeping positive and relaxed are effective ways to avoid the post-holiday syndrome.

　　總之，正常健康地生活，並保持積極放鬆的狀態都是避免患上節後綜合症的有效方法。

　　：在路上度過黃金週

　　 To Spend the “Golden Week” On The Road

　　The 7-days-long holiday is entitled “Golden Week” by the Chinese government to celebrate the most important festival in China: The Spring Festival. The past decade has witnessed private cars from luxuries to common equipment, as well as the Chinese people celebrate Spring Festival from traditional ways to modern ones. Nowadays, more and more people choose to celebrate the Spring Festival Golden Week to travel by driving their own cars with families.

　　在中國，為慶祝中國最重要的節日-春節，政府劃定了七天的長假，稱作“黃金週”。過去的十年裡，私家車從人們心中的奢侈品變成常規配置，中國人民慶祝春節的方式也從傳統的方式變成了現代方式。現在，越來越多的人們選擇在春節長假這個黃金週裡跟家人一起出去自駕遊。

　　From my personal angle alone, driving your own car is a worthwhile way to try when you decide to travel. Why?

　　我認為，在你決定出去旅遊，駕駛自家的車出遊是一個很值得一試的方式。為什麼?

　　The initial reason lies in that driving your own car is liberal. Compared with joining a travel agency, driving makes your touring time more flexible. Imaging, when you are driving along the national roads, the setting sun paints the trees, remote mountains with a golden glory, you could stop the car whenever you want and enjoy the scene. However, if you are a member of a travel group, your schedule is beyond your decision.

　　選擇自駕遊的首要原因就是自由。與參加旅遊團相比，自駕遊可以讓你自由的安排自己的旅遊時間。想象一下，當你駕車正行駛在道路上，正在升起的太陽將遠處的群山染成了金色，無論何時只要你想，你都可以停下車欣賞此刻的美景。但是你要是旅遊團的一員，你就無法做那樣的決定。

　　Another reason I suggest self-driving tourism is that it enhances the family bonds, emotionally. On the road, only family members are in the car, they could exchange more private thoughts with each other, they could make jokes which only involving family members, they could hug and kiss without any hesitating. Obviously, the emotional connections would become closer because of words and contact during this tour.

　　讓我推崇自駕遊的另一個原因是：自駕遊能夠從情感上加深家人間的聯絡。在旅途中，車裡只有自己的家人們，他們互相交流自己的想法，互相開家人的玩笑，他們毫不猶豫地互相擁抱。在這趟旅行中他們的感情很明顯地變得更加親密。

　　Therefore, let’ s take our families and try to spend the “Golden Week” on the road!

　　總而言之，帶上你的家人試試在路上度過你的假期黃金週。

　　：關於我國高考英語比例的降低

　　On Lowering the Percentage of English in Chinese College-Entrance Examination

　　Recently, the news that English will occupy less percentage in Chinese traditional college-entrance examination in the following years has aroused a heated discussion among the public, especially among students.

　　最近，有訊息稱我國高考將在近幾年內降低英語所佔分值，這一訊息在廣大眾們中引起了熱烈討論，尤其是在學生中間。

　　There are two different views towards the news. On the one hand, those students who consider learning English as a boring and difficult task and those who are not good at learning English sing high praise of it, because the lower percentage of English will narrow their gap with those who can get higher score in English. In other words, the lower of percentage of English makes it more possible for them to reach better colleges or universities. However, on the opposite side, those who do well in learning English will feel disappointed as their advantage will be lowered if the percentage of English is lowered.

　　對此訊息有兩種不同的看法。一是，那些認為英語很難學很枯燥或是討厭學英語的學生對此訊息表示很支援, 因為英語分值的降低會縮小他們跟那些擅長英語學習的學生之間的差距。這也意味著他們有更大機會考上好的大學。然而，相反的，如果高考降低英語分值，那些英語成績好的學生會感到失落，因為他們將會失去優勢。

　　As far as I am concerned, in a long term, the lower percentage of English in college-entrance examination is not good for the overall development of students, it is not good for improving the whole nation’s English, and is not good for communication with foreign countries. In a word, examination is a great motivation for second-language learners, and there is no doubt that the lower percentage of English in Chinese traditional college-entrance examination will bring some further negative impact to students.

　　在我看來，從長遠來看降低高考中英語的比重不利於學生的全面發展，不利於提高本國國民的英語水平，不利於與海外國家的交流。總之，考試對於第二語言的學習者來說是個很好的激勵，毫無疑問高考英語比重的降低將對學生產生負面影響。
