研究:宇航员和被困矿工最需家人支持

　　The 33 Chilean miners trapped almost half a mile underground probably never dreamed they'd have much in common with astronauts. But their ordeal – survival in a small, cramped place with no discernable day or night – does have a few parallels to space flight, according to people who have worked closely with NASA.

　　困在地下将近半英里处的33名智力矿工可能做梦也想不到他们的经历会和宇航员有多么相似。但是曾在美国航天局工作的人说，这些矿工们需要在狭小、拥挤且昼夜不分的地方生存下来，这种考验的的确和太空飞行有些许相似之处。

　　These parallels provide both insights into how to keep the men mentally and physically healthy as well as what kinds of snags they might encounter while they await rescue, including the possibilities of in-group fighting, post-traumatic stress disorder, anxiety and depression.

　　这些相似之处能够让人们了解如何保持被困矿工的心理和生理健康以及矿工们在等待救援时有可能会遇到的包括内讧、创伤后应激障碍、焦虑及抑郁在内的各种突发状况。
