While only about 300 workers receive disablement benefit for industrial dermatitis every year, there may be between 15,000 and 60,000 new cases of this condition every year.
然而，每年只有300名工人因职业引发的皮肤炎症得到伤残救济金，而实际上每年都有1.5万~6万人得皮肤疾病。
These figures are gross underestimates of the true incidence of occupational ill-health.
这些数据只是对实际发生的职业病伤害的不完全统计。
According to UK official statistics, every year about 2000 lives are lost through occupational disease or injury, about 20,000 major industrial injuries occur (e.g. skull fracture, loss of sight) and there are about 200,000 injuries resulting in a work disability of 3 days or more.
根据英国官方的统计数据，每年大约有2000人因为职业疾病或伤害而丧命，每年大约发生2万起重大工伤事故(如脑部骨折、失明等)，有20万工伤事故导致工人在3天或者更长时间内丧失劳动能力。
Every year, about 10 million of the 150 million workers in the European Community are affected by incidents,” accidents” or diseases at work.
每年，欧共体的1.5亿工人中大约有1000万工人由于工作中出现的时间、意外事故或工作引发的疾病而使健康受到影响。
We are now focusing on the adverse effects of work on health, although the positive effects of appropriate work on health and well-being are no less important.
虽然适当的工作对身体健康带来的有利影响也同样重要，但我们现在集中谈谈工作对健康的不利影响。
Work is an important determinate of health. It can influence health positively or negatively.
工作是健康的一个重要决定性因素，它可以给身体带来正面或负面的影响。

What types of sports do you like watching or playing?(Why?)
你喜欢观看并参与什么样的体育运动?(为什么?)
My favorite sport is table tennis. It’s a moderate exercise, but it requires great skills both tactical and technical. You have to have speed, stamina, dexterity, shrewdness and quickness in decision-making. (速度，耐力，灵巧，精明和快速决策) It’s the most popular sports game in China I think.
Do you think companies should provide sports facilities for their staff?(Why?)
你认为公司是否应该为其员工提供运动设施?(为什么?)
Yes. I think it’s wise for companies to provide sports facilities for their staff. Employees can make the best use of these facilities to keep fit, so they can have better performance in their work. It’s very rewarding.
What problems do staff usually have when they are under the burden of a heavy workload?
如果员工的工作量过大，会产生什么问题?
When they are under the burden of a heavy workload, employees will often feel frustrated or depressed. This would result in stress-related illnesses, such as high blood pressure and fatigue. Employees will be in very low morale and give very poor performance in their work.
Do you ever feel overworked?(Why?/Why not?)
你是否曾感到工作过于疲劳?(为什么?)
Yes. Sometimes I am really overwhelmed with the heavy workload and feel tired and fatigued. As a secretary in the company, I have so much paperwork to do and often have to rush to meet tight deadlines. And I never seem to have time to take a holiday.
