新概念英語(yǔ)第4冊(cè)閱讀常見(jiàn)話(huà)題：防曬霜抗皮膚老化

1. 防曬霜抗皮膚老化

A new study has found that applying sunscreen every day can do more than lower your risk of skin cancer--it can also drastically slow the aging of your skin.

一項(xiàng)新的研究顯示，每天使用防曬霜不僅可降低患皮膚癌的風(fēng)險(xiǎn)，還可大大延緩皮膚老化的

進(jìn)程。

Ultraviolet rays that spur wrinkles and other signs of aging can quietly build up damage pretty much anytime you're in the sun.

只要你暴露在陽(yáng)光下，紫外線(xiàn)幾乎都會(huì)悄悄產(chǎn)生傷害，催生皺紋和其他衰老的標(biāo)志。

Researchers in sunny Australia made a unique study and found that even if a person is already middle-aged, it's not too late to start rubbing some sunscreen.

研究者們?cè)陉?yáng)光燦爛的澳大利亞進(jìn)行了一項(xiàng)特別的研究，發(fā)現(xiàn)即使一個(gè)人已步入中年，開(kāi)始

涂抹一些防曬霜也不算太晚。

The study of 900 people under 55 compared those assigned to use sunscreen daily to those who used it when they deemed it necessary.

這項(xiàng)研究共有 900 名 55 歲以下的人參與。它將兩部分人做了對(duì)比：一部分被要求每天都涂防曬霜，而另外一部分只是在覺(jué)得有必要時(shí)才用。

After 4 and a half years, those who used sunscreen regularly had younger-looking hands, with 24 percent less skin aging than those who used sunscreen only some of the time.

四年半以后，定期使用防曬霜的人的雙手看起來(lái)更加年輕，其皮膚老化程度比偶爾使用防曬

霜的人減緩了24%。

Skin experts have long urged year-round sunscreen use--especially for constantly exposed skin on the face, hands, the neck and the upper chest. They hope the new study draws attention to the issue.

皮膚專(zhuān)家一直敦促人們一年到頭都要使用防曬霜，尤其是要給臉部、雙手、脖子和胸部上半

部分等部位經(jīng)常裸露在外的皮膚防曬。他們希望這項(xiàng)新研究能引起人們對(duì)這個(gè)問(wèn)題的關(guān)注。

Sunscreen isn't perfect, so don't forget skin experts' other advice: Limit exposure during the peak UV hours of 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., and while going out, wear a hat, a pair of sunglasses and protective clothing when possible.

防曬霜也不是萬(wàn)能的，所以不要忘了皮膚專(zhuān)家的其他建議：盡量避免在上午十點(diǎn)到下午四點(diǎn)

紫外線(xiàn)最強(qiáng)烈的時(shí)段出門(mén);如有可能，出門(mén)時(shí)戴上帽子、墨鏡，并穿上防護(hù)衣。
