>Headphones purify air
戴森欲推耳机式净化器

Dyson's plans for an air purifier that could double as a pair of headphones have been published by the UK patent office, at a time when face masks have become must-have accessories to fight the spread of a deadly virus across Asia.
英国专利局近日公布了戴森的空气净化器计划,这种净化器还可以兼作耳机使用。当前,由于致命病毒在亚洲传播,各种面罩正成为必备品。

The product, developed by Dyson Ltd engineers, houses a filter within the headphones, with a form of nozzle providing filtered air to the user.
该产品由戴森公司的工程师开发,在耳机内装有一个过滤器,通过喷嘴为用户提供过滤后的空气。

The patent notes that "air pollution is an increasing problem and a variety of air pollutants have known or suspected harmful effects on human health."
该专利指出:"空气污染已成为一个日益严重的问题。我们已经意识到或开始怀疑,一些空气污染物会对人体健康造成有害影响。"

Dyson is best known for its vacuum cleaners and hand dryers.
戴森最知名的产品是真空吸尘器和干手机。

Any bid to grow in the headphone market would mark a leap for Dyson, pitting it against Apple Inc's AirPods and Beats and high-end gadgets from the likes of Bose and Sennheiser, according to insiders.
业内人士称,对于戴森而言,以任何形式进军耳机市场都是一次飞跃。这将使其与苹果公司的AirPods和Beats,以及Bose和森海塞尔等公司的高端产品展开竞争。

However, the potential to market a wearable purifier to consumers in Chinese cities could be a major driver for the project.
但是,向中国城市的消费者推销可穿戴净化器的潜力,可能是该项目的主要驱动力。

>Low self-esteem causes depression
研究称自卑易使人抑郁

Low self-esteem makes us feel bad about ourselves. Over time it also can cause the development of serious mental conditions such as depression.
自卑让人自我感觉极差。久而久之自卑会导致抑郁等严重的精神问题。

Clinicians use low self-esteem as one possible symptom when they diagnose the psychiatric condition of major depressive disorder.
临床医生在诊断重度抑郁症患者精神状况时,常把自卑作为一个可能的症状。

A person with low self-esteem takes things personally, and in a negative way.
自卑的人往往会以消极的方式看待事物。

People with low self-esteem try not to disprove but to verify their negative self-concept by seeking negative feedback from the people in their network.
自卑的人不会去尝试推翻消极的自我认知,反而会从人际网络中寻找负面反馈来验证这种认知。

They think about their inadequacies, focus on the negative feedback they receive from others, and as a result become more depressed.
他们思考自己的不足,把注意力都放在别人的负面反馈上,结果更加郁闷。

Their negative mood also leads them to be perceived more negatively by others, which leads them to feel hurt and rejected.
他们的消极情绪也会使其他人更加消极地看待他们,导致他们感到受伤和受到排斥。

Low self-esteem is a risk factor for depression, regardless of who is tested and how.
无论被测试者的身份和研究方法如何,自卑都是抑郁症的一个危险因素。

Therefore, if a person has low self-esteem, there's an increased risk of developing depression.
因此,如果一个人自卑,TA患上抑郁症的风险就更高。

This is a very important discovery because it shows that improving a person's self-esteem can make him or her feel better.
这是一个重大发现,因为这说明提高一个人的自信心,会让TA的感觉好很多。
