馬不停蹄地忙了一上午，吃過午飯回到桌前發(fā)現(xiàn)還有那么多活兒沒干完，這眼睛立馬就不想睜著了。這樣的mid-day crisis大概很多人都經(jīng)歷過吧。
Mid-day crisis refers to the situation when one is in a desperate need for a siesta because they become extremely tired in the afternoon and coffee isn't cutting it any longer, or when it's the middle of the day, and you realize you have a lot to do and not enough time to do it. As a result, your mind locks up and you can't work, you just sit and pity yourself.
午間危機指下午特別疲憊急需午睡來恢復(fù)精神的情況，這個時候咖啡什么的已經(jīng)不管用了。另外，午間危機也可以指到了中午才意識到還有很多工作要做，而剩下的時間已經(jīng)不夠用的情況。在這種情況下，人的大腦就會自動鎖定，無法繼續(xù)工作，只能坐在那里顧影自憐。
For example:
Perhaps casual chatting with colleagues in the pantry over a cup of tea for a good fifteen minutes will soothe the mid-day crisis symptoms.
到餐室喝杯茶，跟同事閑聊個15分鐘可能會緩解午間危機的癥狀。
