   追星综合症 celebrity1 worship syndrome2

  If you are an avid3 soccer fan, then you’ll be well aware of all the tense, nail-biting feelings that mysteriously occur when your team has a match. You’re in the dying minutes, your strikers have missed chance after chance, and the opposition4 is now threatening with a counter attack. As they pile on the pressure your club is hanging on by the skin of its teeth, you experience all the nerves of the world stacked onto your shoulders, and you are quite literally5 on the edge of your seat.
  如果你是位热心球迷,那么当你支持的球队有比赛时,那些莫名出现的紧张情绪你就不会不理解了。到了加时赛的最后一刻,你们队的前锋却总是错失良机,而此时对方开始发起反攻了。赛场上剑拔弩张气氛凝重的时候,你所在地球迷俱乐部也在跟他们一道咬牙坚持。你感觉世界上所有的精神压力都压在了你的肩上,你在焦急不安地等待着。
  This experience has a name: soccer fan syndrome. Research found that many soccer fans suffer increased heart rate, decreased concentration levels, sweaty hands, and mild nausea6 when they are watching soccer matches.
  这种焦虑的体验叫做“球迷综合征”。研究发现,很多球迷在观看比赛时都会表现出心率加快,注意力下降,手心出汗,以及轻微恶心等症状。
