【答案解析】[听力原文]
M: The road to happiness is easier than you think. Sign up now to join thousands of others in the I Feel Good Community Challenge—6 weeks to a happier and more balanced you. Ivillage contributor Amy Hendel is the health expert waiting to challenge. Amy, good morning.
W: Good morning, and there's a lot of happiness on this day.
M: Yes. We feel good all the time. Tell us what is this challenge for?
W: {{U}}This is a six-week challenge to make women realize that they need to reclaim a little me-time. Women are out of balance. They don't realize that they are doing so much for others. They're not taking a little time for themselves{{/U}}. (这项为期六周的挑战是为那些每日忙于为他人服务的女性找回一些自己的时间而设立的。)
M: So do you think in a sense, women may feel that they are selfish if they are taking time for themselves? That's time away from family and friends and responsibilities.
W: We are the natural caretakers and often the point persons. If we always think this way, it may have a negative connotation to take me-time. We think of the women who do it to a fault, but we are actually being detrimental to our own balance. Our mental health and well-being depend on having a little happiness in our life.
M: OK. So let's focus on the features and the tools of the I Feel Good Community Challenge.
W: OK.
M: {{U}}First of all, a cry-out board{{/U}}. (在这项挑战中大喊板是最先提供的。)
W: Yes. Because it's not good to cry out to your husband, nor to your co-worker, your boss, maybe your friend. {{U}}But you need a place to let it out{{/U}}. (大喊板可以让你安全地将你的抱怨倾诉出来。) We want distressed people to feel safe complaining, and then get on to the me-time.
M: {{U}}A "peace-of-mind" plan{{/U}}. (内心平静计划。)
W: This is actually a tool that's on the health aspect of the IVillage website—{{U}}it's ongoing all the time but it specifically addresses stress and it personally tells you how to identify it and get rid of it{{/U}}. (内心平静计划主要是帮助女性发现并摆脱压力。) It's going to be important in this challenge.
M: And then you got the IConnect. I guess that's where everybody comes together.
W: That's the message board. {{U}}That's where the community comes together because it's about supporting each other and giving each other ideas on how to do this{{/U}}. (“我连接”是一个留言板，社区成员通过这个留言板可以聚在一起相互支持并给予彼此建议。)
M: {{U}}Now you got down here a Daily Blog{{/U}}. (每日博客也是用来帮助参与者的工具之一。) Is this your blog?
W: I do a daily blog, and I normally cry out the had things going on. But specifically to this challenge, {{U}}I'll be talking about the daily assignments, my own challenges with it, and how people can creatively get me-time{{/U}}. (每日博客是发起人用来帮助参与者探讨每天的任务及其中所面临的挑战，同时告诉人们如何创造性地获取自我时间。)
M: And then you got coaches. What kind of coaches?
W: Well. I'm a coach, and there's another coach. {{U}}We are actually going to be accepting personal me-time makeovers where somebody sends in e-mail, and we give them four or five quick tips to carve out the time to realize why they need it and then to creatively find it{{/U}}. (教练可以通过邮件的形式给予参与者一些帮助和建议，而不是面对面的形式。)
M: {{U}}And you've got I Feel Good Video{{/U}}, (发起者还为参与者提供视频材料。) right?
W: After this morning on the "Today" set, you're home, get rid of the chaos, organizational skills, you've got to find me-time by being creative about your organization.
M: You got some assignment tips, so that in other words, carve out me-time.
W: Carve out me-time at home and on the job. {{U}}On the job, the day before, take 10 minutes, set up your folders, set up your phone list, find out who's going to need you tomorrow, so there are less surprises. At home, lay out your clothes; lay out the breakfast table, the lunches, even lay out your makeup in order, so it can happen quickly and maybe you'll get more sleep time, maybe you'll get some exercises on{{/U}}. (无论在家里还是工作中，女性都应将东西提前整理好为自己从容地赢得自我时间，而不是遇到事情再去考虑，使自己变得焦头烂额。)
M: And what I guess would be kind of a subset of the me-time is to find a hobby.
W: Absolutely. {{U}}We need to reclaim passion and happiness{{/U}}. (找到自己的爱好对于我们重新找回热情与快乐是非常重要的。) Think about what made you happy as a kid, think about a new direction you want to go and rethink your life goals, find quiet time to think about these stuff, {{U}}and then realize how enhanced your life would be if you have it{{/U}}. (有了它，我们的生活质量将会有很大的提高。)
M: And you said avoid roadblocks. What are roadblocks?
W: {{U}}Not being able to say no. You know the just-say-no phrase? You need to invoke it{{/U}}. (适时的学会说“不”使我们能够从容面对生活，找到真正的自我时间。) We're PMSing, meaning we are perfect mommy syndrome people. We are the caretakers of the world? Say no. Don't be the head of every team, every group; {{U}}don't take every leadership role{{/U}}, (不要总是使自己处于领导地位，这样会使自己很累。) tell your husband, communicate and say those hard words: Honey, I need help.
M: OK, and when you say be creative, what do you mean?
W: I mean you need to really be smart about how you carve out that me-time. You need to save yourself: Is my house needing a little zen-like recreation, so that I am not walking through chaos, so that I am not wasting time looking for things? {{U}}Also be creative about what you want to do with the time, make it valuable{{/U}}, (你需要有创造性地为自己找到自我时间：除了要将事情提前整理好，从而使自己变得从容不迫之外，还可以将时间花在有价值的事情上。) healthy eating takes carve-out-me-time, exercise takes carve-out-me-time.
M: And it's all on the website.
W: All on the website and it starts May 21. Sign up now.
M: OK, Amy, thanks so much.
