别坐太久
Don't sit too long — Chinese reading, HSK 4
文章
我在一家公司做设计，每天要在电脑前坐八九个小时。去年开始，我的脖子和腰经常疼，晚上也睡不好。
wǒ zài yì jiā gōng sī zuò shè jì měi tiān yào zài diàn nǎo qián zuò bā jiǔ gè xiǎo shí qù nián kāi shǐ wǒ de bó zi hé yāo jīng cháng téng wǎn shang yě shuì bù hǎo
I work as a designer at a company and sit at my computer eight or nine hours a day. Since last year my neck and lower back have often hurt, and I don't sleep well at night.
医生检查以后说，这是坐得太久、缺少运动引起的。他建议我每工作一个小时就站起来走一走，下班以后做一些简单的运动，比如游泳或者打羽毛球。
yī shēng jiǎn chá yǐ hòu shuō zhè shì zuò de tài jiǔ quē shǎo yùn dòng yǐn qǐ de tā jiàn yì wǒ měi gōng zuò yí gè xiǎo shí jiù zhàn qi lai zǒu yi zǒu xià bān yǐ hòu zuò yì xiē jiǎn dān de yùn dòng bǐ rú yóu yǒng huò zhě dǎ yǔ máo qiú
After examining me, the doctor said it was caused by sitting too long and lacking exercise. He suggested getting up for a walk after every hour of work, and doing some simple exercise after work, like swimming or badminton.
我在手机上设了提醒，到时间就去接一杯水或者看看窗外。坚持了三个月，脖子和腰舒服多了，工作效率也提高了。
wǒ zài shǒu jī shàng shè le tí xǐng dào shí jiān jiù qù jiē yì bēi shuǐ huò zhě kàn kan chuāng wài jiān chí le sān gè yuè bó zi hé yāo shū fu duō le gōng zuò xiào lǜ yě tí gāo le
I set a reminder on my phone, and when it goes off I fetch a glass of water or look out of the window. After keeping it up for three months, my neck and back feel much better, and I work more efficiently too.
