曾几何时,口罩已经成了人们每日出行必备物品。有统计数据显示,口罩的网上销量甚至一度超越了避孕套。
  如此重要的生活用品,怎能不了解一下关于它的各种英文表达。咱们今天就来学一学。
  市面上常见的几种口罩
  ▌保暖口罩
  Cold-weather mask
  
  常由几层棉布构成,内夹棉絮。这类口罩通常只具有保暖的作用,可以阻隔较大颗粒的灰尘,但对于可吸入颗粒物几乎没有防护作用。
  ▌医用外科口罩
  Surgical mask
  
  大多都为一次性使用,不需要清洗,使用也比较方便,同时,相较于民用口罩,对呼吸道疾病的防护作用更加明显。
  ▌活性炭口罩
  Activated Carbon mask
  
  活性炭口罩的活性炭层可增加对异味的滤除作用,但不能增加对颗粒物的防护效果。
  ▌防污染口罩
  Anti-pollution mask
  
  也可称为 pollution mask 和 respirator ['resp?reit?]。指能够过滤空气中的颗粒物的口罩,如3M、Vogmask一类的N95型口罩
  ▌时尚口罩
  trendy mask
  
  追求时尚、潮流美感的口罩,同时也可以作为保暖作用,但一般说来,此类口罩对疾病的防护是比较微弱的。
  ▌另外,mask在英语中不光只是口罩,还指面罩、面具,比如化装舞会上带的面具就叫做masquerade mask
  我们今天着重讲的是防雾霾的pollution mask。
  防霾口罩常用表达
  ▌N95型口罩N95 mask
  也可以称为N95-certified masks,或masks rated N95
  95型口罩,是NIOSH(National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health,美国国家职业安全卫生研究所)认证的9种防颗粒物口罩中的一种。
  ?A mask rated N95 filters outmore than 95% of particles larger than 0.3 microns.
  达到N95等级的口罩可以滤除超过95%的直径大于0.3微米的颗粒物。
  N99的意思就是可以滤除99%的直径大于0.3微米的颗粒物。
  ▌耳戴式口罩 earloop mask
  
  ▌头戴式口罩 headband mask
  
  ▌耳带、头带 strap
  可调节长短的耳/头带是adjustable strap
  例句:
  ?Straps can go either around the head or just the ears, depending on the model.
  依据口罩型号的不同,带子可以挂在耳朵上,也可以箍在头上。
  ▌折叠式 foldable
  
  例句:
  ?One of the great advantage for this model is to be foldable, so that you can always take one with you without it taking much space.
  这个型号的口罩最大优点是可以折叠,有利于随身携带,而不占用太大空间。
  ▌可清洗 washable
  例句:
  ?The mask is washable many times with no loss of filtration effectiveness.
  这款口罩可以多次清洗,且不会损失过滤效果。
  ▌滤芯 filters
  可更换滤芯是replaceable filter
  例句:
  ?The replaceable filter is a bit difficult to switch out, but it’s not a serious problem.
  可更换滤芯换起来有些困难,不过问题不大。
  ▌随弃式 disposable
  例句:
  ?Check out a variety of disposable respirators that help provide protection from particles, germs & gases.
  快来看看各种款式的随弃式防护口罩,它们可以抵抗颗粒物、细菌和毒气。
  ▌一次性的 one-time-use
  例句:
  ?Do one-time-use masks actually help to protect you?
  一次性口罩真的能起防护作用吗?
  ▌可调节金属鼻夹metal nose clip
  
  这个表述比较灵活,还可以说成metal nose bar、metal nose band、metal nose bridge等。
  例句:
  ?This mask has a metal nose clip with soft foam nose cushion for an easy and comfortable fit.
  这款口罩带有金属鼻夹和柔软海绵垫,很容易贴合且很舒适。
  ▌呼吸阀
  exhaust valve / exhalation valve
  
  例句:
  ?This model comes with an exhaust valve, which offers improved comfort, especially for those having difficulty to breath comfortably while wearing the masks.
  这个型号的口罩带有呼吸阀,佩戴起来更舒适,对于那些戴着口罩呼吸不畅的人来说尤其如此。
  口罩的功效
  人们通常从以下几个方面来测试口罩是否好用。
  ▌Comfort 舒适性
  例如:
  ?These masks are usually very comfortable on the face. But their straps go behind the head and not around the ears, which isless practical for many users.
  这些口罩佩戴起来通常很舒服,但是带子是箍在头上,而不是耳戴式,所以对有些人来说不是很好用。
  ?This mask is usually very comfortable but the plastic edges can leave skin indentationswhich last longer than other softer masks.
  通常来讲,这种口罩佩戴起来很舒适,但是塑料边缘会在皮肤上留下印记,和其他柔软材料的口罩相比,印记消掉要花更长的时间。
  ▌Air leaking 密封性
  
  例如:
  ?There is very little leaking if the metal nose bridge is properlypinched together.
  如果把金属鼻夹夹紧的话,空气几乎不会漏进来。
  ?This mask is not quite as snug as some others and I did occasionally smell street odors.
  这款口罩不如其他一些口罩那么贴合,我有时候能闻到街道上的气味。
  ▌Exercising 运动时使用
  
  例如:
  ?I found it very comfortable to breathe while biking, especially if the model has an exhalation valve.
  我觉得戴着这种口罩骑车呼吸十分畅通,尤其是带呼吸阀的那种型号。
  ?The fabric gets soggy during exercise. I also found it harder to take deeper breaths.
  布料会在运动过程中浸湿,而且要深呼吸也很困难。
  ?I had no problems during biking or jogging with this mask and still felt able to catch a breath.
  戴着这款口罩骑自行车或跑步都不成问题,还能喘得上气。
  ▌Fog factor 眼镜是否起雾
  
  例如:
  ?I had very littlefogging of my glasseswith a good seal around the nose.
  由于鼻子周围十分密封,所以眼镜上几乎不会起雾。
  ?Sometimes the nose fit isn’t perfect and my eyeglasses fog up.
  有时候鼻子部分不是很贴合,我的眼镜就起雾了。
  ▌Longevity 使用寿命
  例如:
  ?The mask can last at least a few days of use beforelosing effectiveness.
  这种口罩在持续使用几天后才会失效。
  ?The mask itself can last for years, and you just pop in a new filter every few days.
  口罩本身可以使用多年,你只要隔几天放一个滤芯进去就行了。
  有用的句子
  最后学一些谈论口罩的有用句子。
  ?I only strongly recommend trulyN95-certified masks such as 3M and Vogmask.
  我只强烈推荐真正通过N95认证的口罩,比如3M和Vogmask。
  ?The only masks that are worth buying are the N95 type.
  唯一值得买的口罩就是N95的。
  ?If you want to protect yourself against the minuscule particles you'll needprofessional masks. Very pricy and inconvenient to wear.
  如果你想抵抗住微颗粒,就必须使用专业面具,很贵,而且佩戴不便。
  ?After about 2-3 weeks of use, the masklooks horribly grey!!
  用了两三周后,口罩都变灰了,可吓人!
  ?I've noticed thatcounterfeit/fake masks are a huge problem in China, and I was wondering where will I can purchase authentic 3M masksin Beijing.
  我发现中国各种假冒伪劣口罩是个大问题,不知道北京哪里能买到3M正品呢。
  ?Many masks aren’t good for heavy breathing such as I would do while running.
  有些口罩在呼吸沉重的时候,比如跑步的时候,戴着不是很适合。
  ?The filter life span is said to be 69 hours, so assuming that you bike 1 hour every day, that's 3 month use for one filter - not so bad.
  一个滤芯的寿命据说是69个小时,假设你每天骑一小时车,那一片滤芯就可以用3个月,挺不错。
  ?It sometimes takes a bit of fine tuningthe metal nose clip for a good seal.
  有时候要稍微调一下鼻夹,才能达到好的密封效果。
  ?Air pollution is such a serious issue that we really need to stick with the best masks — with proven results from independent labs, not just TV advertorials and website testimonials.
  现在空气污染太严重,我们真的要用最靠谱的口罩才行,得有独立实验室的检验报告,而不是电视广告和网站上贴的各种证书。
