如何缓解疫情期间社交隔离产生的焦虑感？专家给出了这6个建议海外新冠肺炎疫情日趋严重，各国纷纷实施居家隔离措施。在家待一两周也许不是问题，但如果在家待久了，不少人会表示“憋不住”，有些人甚至会因此产生孤独、焦虑情绪。隔离期间如何呵护我们的心理健康呢？来看纽约焦虑症中心的创始人和负责人、哈佛医学院的助理教授戴维·H·罗斯马林博士给你支招。Photo by Erik Mclean on Unsplash 1. REMEMBER THAT SOCIAL DISTANCING DOESN’T MEAN SOCIAL ISOLATION. 记住：社交隔离不意味着社交隔绝 Leading health experts from the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and the World Health Organization (WHO) have made it clear that minimizing the impact of coronavirus means lessening transmission by staying home. For people who thrive off social interaction, the practice can be troubling. But Rosmarin says a lack of physical proximity shouldn’t mean a lack of socializing. 疾病控制中心和世界卫生组织的权威健康专家已经明确表示，要将新冠病毒的影响最小化，就必须通过居家隔离来减少病毒传播。对于爱社交的人来说，这一措施令其烦恼。但是罗斯马林表示，无法近距离接触不意味着缺乏社交生活。 "Social distancing does not mean social isolation,” he says. “We can use electronic means to connect to each other.” “社交隔离不意味着社交隔绝，”他说道，“我们可以用电子手段来联系彼此。” Rosmarin says phoning friends and staying in touch can allow us to maintain our connections, though he cautions that social media doesn’t provide the same benefits. “Social media and news might make you feel connected, but it creates distance,” Dr. Rosmarin says. Instead, call or conference people you know personally, one-on-one. Playing online games or other virtual activities can also help you maintain feelings of remaining connected when avoiding in-person visits. 罗斯马林说，给朋友打电话、保持联系可以让我们维持社交生活，但他提醒说，社交媒体无法提供同样的益处。罗斯马林博士说：“社交媒体和新闻会让你感觉和世界有联系，但实际上它制造的是距离。”你应该给你认识的人打电话或进行一对一的讨论。打网游或进行其他虚拟活动也能有助于你在无法亲自拜访时保持这种联系的感觉。Photo by Shane on Unsplash 2. DON’T LET THE NEWS CYCLE DICTATE YOUR EMOTIONS. 不要让消息推送主宰你的情感 The coronavirus situation is dynamic and seems to change by the hour, resulting in a number of people feeling compelled to stay on top of updates by constantly checking their phones for new information. While that can be stressful at any time, it can affect your ability to relax if you surf news outlets just before going to sleep. “People need to be shutting off information an hour before they go to bed,” Dr. Rosmarin says. “It’s not a good time to be watching the news.” It’s very unlikely an update will be so urgent or pressing it would lose relevance by morning. Sleep is critical to a healthy immune system, and giving yourself an opportunity to unwind is important. 新冠肺炎疫情似乎每时每刻都在不断变化，导致许多人都觉得有必要不停查看手机以了解最新信息。这种做法不但会在平时给你带来压力，如果你在睡觉前刷新闻还会让你无法放松下来。“人们需要在睡前一小时屏蔽信息，”罗斯马林博士说，“这不是看新闻的好时机。”很少会有哪条推送紧急到隔天早上再看就会丧失时效性的。睡眠对于健康的免疫系统十分关键，让自己有机会放松是很重要的。 unwind[ˌʌnˈwaɪnd]: vi. 放松；解开；松开 Rosmarin also recommends avoiding scrolling during mealtimes for the same reason. In some cases, it may be best to avoid news or news outlets that make you feel particularly stressed. WHO recommends checking in on the news once or twice a day at specific times, and getting information from reliable sources to avoid rumors and misinformation. 罗斯马林还建议，出于同样的原因，你也应该避免在吃饭时刷新闻。在某些情况下，最好是避免看那些让人特别有压力的新闻或新闻媒体。世界卫生组织建议，每天在特定时间段查看一次或两次新闻，从可靠源头获取信息来避免接收到流言和不实信息。 3. DON’T ARGUE WITH PEOPLE WHO SEEM UNCONCERNED ABOUT THE CRISIS. 不要和不把疫情当回事的人争论 One major source of stress for people right now is the fact that they might face peer pressure from friends or family to attend gatherings when they aren’t comfortable being in groups—even small groups. Others may be upset people aren’t following guidelines to stay home. 现在人们压力的一大来源是他们可能面临来自亲友的压力去参加一些自己在疫情期间不愿参加的聚会——哪怕是小规模聚会。其他人则会为人们没有遵循居家隔离的指导方针而心烦。 Arguing about it isn’t productive. “This comes up a lot,” Dr. Rosmarin says. “In-laws may feel rejected, or a friend may want to come over. I would suggest a technique called ‘validation.’ You convey to a person that their feelings are reasonable. If someone wants to come over, you can say you’re sorry but that you’re practicing social distancing. You can say, ‘You might feel I’m rejecting you, but I’m not. I want to see you.’ As opposed to, ‘You’re crazy and you’re not paying attention.’ That conversation will always go south.” 为此而争论是徒劳的。“这种情况经常出现，”罗斯马林博士说：“姻亲们可能会有被排斥的感觉，也可能有朋友想过来做客。我建议大家采用一种叫作‘确认’的技巧。你向对方传达出他们的感觉是合理的信息。如果有人想来做客，你可以说你很抱歉，但你正在实行社交隔离。你可以说：‘你也许觉得我在排斥你，但我不是。我是想见你的。’而不是说：‘你疯了吗？你没注意到现在的形势吗？’这种对话只会起到反效果。”Photo by Brian Wangenheim on Unsplash 4. ASK FAMILY MEMBERS TO RESPECT YOUR BOUNDARIES. 请家人尊重你的界线 For many households, school cancellations and shifting to a work-from-home arrangement means couples and children are spending a lot more time together. People who previously had time and space now have neither. Boundaries need to be established. “People need to have a set-up for work,” Dr. Rosmarin says, whether that’s literal (a desk) or figurative (an armchair). Whatever that area is, other family members need to respect that when you’re there, you’re trying to be productive or recharging. “You need to have a certain area of the house where you can go without judgment, a place to either decompress or get things done.” 对许多家庭来说，停学和在家工作的安排意味着夫妻和孩子们有多得多的时间在一起。先前拥有自己的时间和空间的人现在这两者都没有了。你需要在家里划清界线。“人们需要确立工作区，”罗斯马林博士说，无论是真实的办公桌还是象征性的扶手椅。无论这个工作区是什么，在你试图高效地工作或充电时，其他家庭成员都要尊重你的工作区。“你需要拥有房子里的一片特定区域，在那里你可以不受指摘，放心地解压或做事。” If you feel a fight coming on, remember you’re in this together—sparring with someone you love and need isn’t going to solve much. 如果你觉得家庭战争一触即发，记得你们正在共度时艰——和你所爱并需要的人吵架解决不了什么问题。 5. DON’T IGNORE YOUR REGULAR ROUTINE. 不要忽略你的常规生活 Do laundry on Sundays? Keep doing it on Sunday. Not going to work? Get dressed anyway. Maintaining a semblance of a regular routine will go a long way toward helping you avoid feelings of disorganization and unpredictability. 习惯在星期天洗衣服？那就还在星期天洗。不用去上班？还是穿戴整齐吧。保持常规生活的面貌将极大地帮助你避免混乱无序和不可预测的感觉。 "Anxiety is just the beginning,” Rosmarin says. “Within a week or two, people are probably going to start feeling depressed, sad, and lethargic, especially since we are distancing from one another. That’s really where the benefits of scheduling come in.” “焦虑只是个开始，”罗斯马林说，“在一两周内，人们很可能会开始感觉抑郁、悲伤和无精打采，尤其在我们相互隔离以后。这时候日程规划的优点就开始真正显现出来。” lethargic[ləˈθɑːrdʒɪk]: adj. 无精打采的，懒洋洋的；昏睡的 Sticking to your normal sleep and wake times, your exercise routine, and other practices will maintain feelings of familiarity. It will also help you adjust when the world returns—as it inevitably will—to normalcy. 坚持你的正常作息时间、日常锻炼和其他行为习惯将保持你的熟悉感。它还能在世界重回正轨的时候——这一天终将到来——帮助你调整和回归正常状态。Photo by Sharon McCutcheon on Unsplash 6. DON’T HESITATE TO SEEK HELP IF YOU NEED IT. 如果你需要帮助，请不要犹豫寻求专业支持 For people already struggling with anxiety, obsessive-compulsive disorder, or depression, fears over coronavirus can be especially disruptive. Always seek professional help if you feel overwhelmed. 对于那些已经备受焦虑、强迫症或抑郁症困扰的人，对新冠病毒的担忧尤其具有破坏性。如果你感觉承受不了，一定要去寻求专业的帮助。

每日新闻播报为遏制新冠肺炎疫情蔓延，西班牙政府出台严格法律，规定除遛狗等8种情况可以外出少许时间。于是，市场上开始出现租狗信息，让你可以出门遛遛；甚至还有人，直接牵着玩具狗出门。Anoir Chafik/unsplash Offers of a dog have begun popping up on Spanish online marketplaces as the coronavirus quarantine measures enter their third day of effect. 随着新冠肺炎隔离措施进入第三天，西班牙网络市场开始出现租狗信息。 Adverts seen on MilAnuncios.com include a podenco in Valencia, charging €25 for a ‘walk’. 在MilAnuncios.com网站上，人们可以看到瓦伦西亚的一位客户出租加那利猎犬等信息，他的收费是“遛狗一次”25欧元（约合人民币192元）。 “Podenco for rent for walking or running during the quarantine to avoid getting fined,” the offer reads. 招租信息中写道：“出租加那利猎犬，在隔离期间遛狗走路或跑步，以避免被罚款。” It comes as a royal decree approved last Saturday night has severely restricted freedom of movement in Spain. 上周（3月14日）六晚，西班牙通过了一项皇家法令，严格限制居民外出。 Residents must stay indoors, only leaving home – one per car – for food, medicines, medical assistance, essential work, caring for loved ones or other justifiable activity. 居民必须待在室内，只能一车一人离家购买食品、药品、就医、去工作、照顾亲人或其他正当活动。 Workers require certification authorising the necessity of their travel. 上班族需要出示必须外出的证明。 The government has assured residents they may walk their pets, so long as they observe social distancing measures such as keeping 1m apart from other members of the public. 政府向居民明确指出，只要按照规定与他人保持社交距离，比如与其他人间隔1米，他们就可以带宠物出去散步。于是，有狗的、没狗的人们都开始给自己创造机会出门散步。戳视频： MilAnuncios.com has said they will not permit the renting out of pets, allowing residents to ‘laugh off’ the coronavirus restrictions, according to La Vanguardia. 据《先锋报》报道，MilAnuncios.com网站表示，他们不会允许出租宠物，让居民绕开为遏制新冠肺炎疫情而采取的限制措施。 “From Milanuncios we are not allowing this type of service to be offered on our platform, so we are eliminating all the ads that appear in this regard.” “作为Milanuncios网站，我们不允许人们在我们的平台上提供这种类型的服务，所以我们正在删除所有这类广告。”

Trump does not plan to be tested or go into self-quarantine, the White House said. 巴西总统博索纳（Jair Bolsonaro）的新闻秘书法比奥·瓦金加滕（Fabio Wajngarten）12日新冠病毒检测结果为阳性。上周六（7日），他曾陪同博索纳与特朗普在佛罗里达州的海湖庄园（Mar-a-Lago resort）会面。 Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro’s communications director, Fábio Wajngarten, tested positive just days after traveling with Bolsonaro to a meeting with Trump and senior aides in Florida. 瓦金加滕曾与特朗普和彭斯站在一起合影。法比奥·瓦金加滕（右一）与特朗普和彭斯合影还有视频显示，当特朗普和博索纳面对人群说话时，他就站在两人身后。白宫新闻秘书斯蒂芬妮·格里沙姆12日发表声明说，总统和副总统几乎没有与此人进行过互动，目前不需要接受检测。 White House press secretary Stephanie Grisham said in a statement Thursday that “exposures from the case are being assessed, which will dictate next steps.” 白宫新闻秘书斯蒂芬妮·格里沙姆12日发表声明说，“我们正在评估与此病例的接触情况，从而决定下一步行动。” “Both the President and Vice President had almost no interactions with the individual who tested positive and do not require being tested at this time,” Grisham said. 格里沙姆说：“总统和副总统与这名检测呈阳性的人员几乎没有什么互动，目前不需要接受检测。” 据美国政客新闻网（Politico）报道，特朗普12日表示，自己并不担心与这名巴西官员的接触。 "Let's put it this way: I'm not concerned," Trump told reporters at the White House. “这么说吧，我不担心，”特朗普在白宫对记者表示。特朗普证实，他与这名人员在海湖庄园用餐时曾坐在一起。 “We did nothing very unusual.

你不知道的令人羡慕的职业职业运动员、宇航员、时尚设计师、超模……这些都是世人心中的理想工作，光鲜体面又多金，这样的好工作谁不想要呢？可是，在名利双收的背后，却隐藏着不为人所知的艰辛和无奈。Model Bella Hadid presents a creation by designers Vivienne Westwood and Andreas Kronthaler as part of their Fall/Winter 2020/21 women's ready-to-wear collection show during Paris Fashion Week in Paris, France February 29, 2020. REUTERS/Piroschka van de Wouw Models may flaunt their luxury lifestyles, but the reality is lots of hard work, a highly demanding schedule, and not as much money as you might think. 模特们也许会晒出自己奢华的生活方式，但现实是大量的辛苦工作、高强度的日程安排，而且收入也没你想的那么高。 Models seem to be constantly jet-setting around the world, enjoying luxury vacations aboard yachts, and flaunting designers' best pieces.

I was very emotionally unstable for a while when I was working 14-hour days for four months straight as an 18-year-old. I think I just wanted to breathe a little bit." 在接受时尚杂志《Vogue》的采访时，贝拉·哈迪德坦承：“我每天早上都想哭，我午饭休息时间也想哭，我在睡觉前也想哭。我18岁时，连续四个月每天工作14个小时，有一段时间我的情绪非常不稳定。我想我只是需要喘口气。” Plus, they don't earn as much as you might think. In New York, models earn $48,130 on average a year, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. That's only a third of the average annual Manhattanite salary, Business Insider previously reported. 此外，模特们的收入也没有你想的那么高。根据劳工统计局的数据，纽约的模特平均一年能挣48130美元（约合人民币33.4万元）。根据商业内幕网先前的报道，这只是曼哈顿人平均年薪的三分之一。

学习英语到底难在哪里我们英语学习的“难”，到底难在哪里？学习英语，即使在信息发达的今天，也有不少同学感到十分为难。如果要问，我们英语学习的难，具体难在哪里？可能不少人会说：“难在哪里？这不是明白的吗？语法难，听力难，写作难，还用问？”。是的，的确如此，这些难点都是一直存在的，也是一致公认的。不过，如果我们换个角度，如果我们从语言的学习与语言的运用都是为了把意思表达清楚这一基本点出发，再来看看并试着分析一下我们学习英语的难，找找其原因，是否能给大家带来更多的一些启发和一些帮助呢？如果我们能从语言是用来表达意思的这一角度出发，我们不妨先观察一下，为了把意思表达清楚，我们的母语（汉语）有什么特点呢？首先，我们可能都会注意到，为了把意思表达清楚，语言的语序十分重要。大家都知道，汉语是SVO结构语言（SVO，S为Subject，意即主语，V即Verb，意即谓语，O为Object，意即宾语），即语法顺序为主语—谓语—宾语的结构。如果我们仅谈SVO这样的术语，或许比较抽象，难以说明。我们还是举个例子，如果我们说：“人咬狗”，或者，“狗咬人”这样的话，想必人人理解，歧义不会太大。如果有人说：“人狗咬”，或者“狗人咬”的话，可能有些人就要挠头了，不好明白了。因为搞不清楚这里的“人狗”狗人”具体是怎么一回事了，是名词？还是人狗咬到一块？还是表达不清？这就需要结合上下文来看了。所以，为了把意思表达清楚，语言的语序是十分重要的。幸运的是，英语也是SVO结构，和我们的母语相似，这就给我们带来了一些理解上的便利。但是，我们的汉语还有一个特点，这就是在汉语中，我们常用简短的词语来表达复杂深奥含义，而英语则是用“从句”等复杂句子来表达复杂的意思。说到这里，大家或许不能立即明白，我们不妨稍作停顿，仔细回想一下为好。在我们的汉语中，有着大量的成语典故等表达方式的存在。这些成语典故不仅有着丰富的含义，而且有着历史背景。毫不夸张的说，每一个成语都可以写成一篇文章或者一本书。但是，这些简短的四字成语，用在谈话或文章中，大家都可以瞬间明白其含义，不需过多解释。而英语就没有这个特点，英语的复杂意思是用从句来表达的。从句一出，英语语感不好的同学就会立马崩溃，虽然同是SVO结构，但一旦加上从句，就有太多的V的存在，在这么多的V中，实在难以搞清哪个是大V？哪个是小V？哪个是主V？哪个是次V？找不准V的位置，意思也就无法准确理解了。如果，我们说，英语学习的第一个难点是从句，相信会有人赞成的。至于是不是第一，可能会有些争议。为了简明起见，这里的所说的难点，只是随手提及，并无刻意安排，因此，也就不对其顺序过多讨论。从句之所以难，并非其本身有多大的难度，或者有多么复杂，而是我们母语中没有这样的表达方式。对初学者来说，有些不太习惯，也不太适应。如果大家能理解并赞同上述观点，我们继续：为了把意思表达清楚，我们汉语还有个特点，这就是字与字，词与词之间的意思要配合。汉语的语法，相对而言，是比较简单的。但是，我们汉语对词义的配合，则要求相当高，因为汉语是靠语序和词义的配合来表达准确意思的。这样笼统一说，或许有些朋友或许理解不深，我们还是举个例子吧。大家知道，我们上学时，学写作文，语文老师总是强调“立意”，这个“立意”虽有多方面含义，其实也包含着意思配合的内涵。譬如，汉朝开国皇帝汉高祖刘邦曾写过一首诗叫《大风歌》（有人考证说，该诗歌可能不是刘邦所作，但至少可以说是因其才流传百世的）。诗词内容如下：“大风起兮云飞扬，威加海内兮归故乡，安得猛士兮守四方？”。这气度，绝对是皇帝手笔。由于我们现在讨论的是语意的配合，赞叹暂且放下，言归正传。现在，如果允许，我们把这首诗的略作改动，看看意思配合改变后会产生什么效果。譬如：这首诗的头一句：“大风起兮云飞扬”，如果我们说：大风起兮尘飞扬，估计语文老师还能接受。我们接着来，如果我们说：大风起兮砖飞扬，估计老师的脸色就会不好看了，心里可能开始有气。如果我们说：大风起兮屁飞扬，估计老师应该拍桌子，考虑叫家长了。然而，在这几个变动的句子中，没有一个是不合语法的，换句话说，语法是没问题的，有问题的只是意思不配合而已。因此，我们说，为了把意思表达清楚，汉语对词语词义之间的配合是有相当高的要求的。

中国孩子为什么学习英语难方法不对，努力白费！大多数中国孩子的英语学习方法从小到大都是错的——死背单词、死记语法……这些笨方法不仅无趣，还会严重破坏语感，孩子将来会越学越吃力。具体分析，有6种错误的英语学习方法！听力材料与能力不匹配听力一向是孩子们的弱项，中国孩子的总听力时长一般为100-500小时。但老师和父母总是为孩子们准备难度过高的材料，孩子听不懂却要硬听，一旦听懂了，就认为永远不用再听了。听力材料与能力不匹配，让听力本来就弱的孩子更加害怕了。所学内容脱离环境我们学习英语时，总是会忽略很多生活化的内容。有些孩子连拖鞋、鞋架这些生活用品还不会讲，却一味地去学习“火星、月亮的构成”这种高阶内容。所学内容距离生活太远，孩子当然没兴趣。不敢张口说英语作为一门语言，最重要的作用就是说，但是有很多孩子都不敢说，一旦自己张口讲了一个错词，就觉得自己口语差。大部分家长和孩子改进的方法，不是多说，而是去报个口语班，企图通过一周一两次课，来提高孩子的口语。缺乏兴趣兴趣是学习最大的动力，但很多孩子学习英语时都不会从自己喜欢的部分入手，甚至很多孩子没有喜欢的英语故事、电视、课外书。读写早于听说这也是学习英语的误区之一，很多孩子觉得听说难于读写，所以往往先练读写，再去练听说，这就本末倒置了。想想学母语的婴儿，是不是都是先学会了听和说，然后学的读和写？只背单词语法若说到学英语最让人痛恨的地方,那肯定就是背单词语法了，即使现在想想也还是害怕。但传统学习方法是“只背单词语法，不读课文和句子”，这就导致即使费了很大功夫记住了单词，却还是不会应用，遇到写作题时，还是一脸茫然

学习英语的要点初学英语需要注意什么？刚开始学习英语的时候，我们首先要认识很多英语单词。我们在学校学习英语单词的时候发现，英语单词不止有一个意思，老师通常会叫我们记住所有的意思。但是作为初学者，学习英语单词的时候，应该要先掌握最常用的意思，不应该花大量的时间去记大量的意思。单词多以，只有我们学习英语达到中级或者高级的时候，才需要这样做。学习英语单词，最有效的办法就是大量阅读，但是对于初学者，不能选择太难的，因为句子结构复杂的时候，容易打击我们的自信心，容易放弃学习英语。如何学习英语学习英语要遵循一定的语言原则，这样学习才有效。我们学习语言一般是先输入在输出的原则。所以我们学习英语的时候，每天都要确保读英语和利用电脑、手机等等听各种英语素材。要精听和精读，阅读的时候要分析语法，通过这样子训练，我们能够掌握大量的英语语法，而英语语法的掌握，对于我们理解复杂句子的帮助是很大的，从而可以让我们对英语的阅读反应快。精听要注意我们听到的句子的发音、语调、断句以及听懂文章意思，反复听。我们不是一开始就进行说和写，而是有一定的输入之后，这样的情况下练习说和写的效果是最好的。如果我们一开始就学习写和说，就和巧妇难为无米之炊一样，效果不好。个人觉得还是选个教育机构比较较好，我推荐大连朗阁雅思，专业的团队，专业的教学能让你更快速地学好英语，省时高效。大连朗阁期待你的到来。
