感到“時(shí)間饑荒”？

事情好多，忙完這又開(kāi)始忙那，感到時(shí)間嚴(yán)重不夠用，你是否也遭遇了“時(shí)間饑荒”?不禁大喊一聲，時(shí)間都去哪兒啦?

It’s a problem so common it may qualify as a new American epidemic: We’ve got no time. Too busy.

我們沒(méi)時(shí)間了，太忙了。這個(gè)問(wèn)題相當(dāng)普遍，已經(jīng)成為美國(guó)新的流行現(xiàn)象。

Overwhelmed by work, family obligations, and the fast-paced nature of a run-ragged world, many Americans — especially working adults, parents of young children, and those with college degrees, according to polls — feel strapped for time and are leading less happy lives as a result.

我們被工作、家庭責(zé)任、以及極度疲憊的世界的快節(jié)奏性質(zhì)搞的不堪重負(fù)。調(diào)查顯示，很多美國(guó)人，特別是成年職場(chǎng)人士、帶孩子的父母、有大學(xué)文憑的畢業(yè)生都感到時(shí)間不夠用，因此生活反而不那么快樂(lè)。

Researchers in the 1990s gave this familiar, if dreadful, feeling a name: time famine.

上世紀(jì)90年代，研究人員將這種常見(jiàn)但并不愉快的感觸命名為：時(shí)間饑荒。

More recently, they coined a term to describe the opposite: time affluence, that elusive feeling of being rich in time.

最近，他們又創(chuàng)造了一個(gè)新詞，來(lái)描述相反的，時(shí)間很充足的感觸：時(shí)間富裕。
