翻译硕士考研：流行新词翻译之“有效拖延”

Procrastination is the avoidance of doing a task which needs to be accomplished. It is the practice of doing more pleasurable things in place of less pleasurable ones, or carrying out less urgent tasks instead of more urgent ones, thus putting off impending tasks to a later time.

“拖延症”就是避免去做那些需要完成的任务，通常的表现是，先做喜欢的事情或者不太着急的事情，不太喜欢的和比较着急的事情靠后，这样一来，等着完成的任务就要延后了。

Procrastination can take hold on any aspect of life — putting off cleaning the stove, repairing a leaky roof, seeing a doctor or dentist, submitting a job report or academic assignment.

“拖延症”可以表现在生活的各个方面：清理炉灶的事先缓一缓，屋顶漏雨先不着急修，看医生的事过几天再说，工作报告和学术作业一拖再拖。
