问题     Fatigue is one of the most common complaints brought to doctors, friends, and relatives. You’d think in this era of labor-saving and convenient transportation that few people would have reason to be so tired. The causes of modern-day fatigue are diverse and only rarely related to excessive physical exertion. Today, physicians report, tiredness is more likely a consequence of underexercise than of wearing yourself down with overactivity.
    Physical fatigue is the well-known result of overworking your muscles. (46)Physical fatigue is usually a pleasant tiredness, such as that which you might experience after playing a hard set of tennis, chopping wood, or climbing a mountain. The cure is simple and fast: You rest, giving your body a chance to get rid of accumulated waste and restore muscle fuel.
    (47)Illness induced fatigue is a warning sign or consequence of some underlying physical disorder, perhaps the common cold or flu or something more serious like cancer, while other symptoms are present that often suggest the true cause. Even after an illness passed, you’re likely to feel dragged out for a week or more. (48)Take your fatigue as a signal to go slow while your body has a chance to recover fully even if all you had was a cold. Pushing yourself to resume full activity too soon will certainly prolong your period of fatigue.
    Emotional problems and conflicts, especially depression and anxiety, are by far the most common causes of prolonged fatigue. When such feelings are not expressed openly, they often come out as physical symptoms, with fatigue as one of the most common manifestations. (49)Understanding the underlying emotional problem is the crucial first step toward curing psychological fatigue and by itself often results in considerable lessening of the tiredness. Professional psychological help or career or marriage counseling may be needed.
    There is a great deal you can do on your own to deal with both severe prolonged fatigue and those periodic washed-out feelings. You might try to do moderate exercise. (50)Contrary to what you may think, exercise enhances, rather than drains, energy and helps you to resist fatigue by increasing your body’s ability to handle more of a workload. At the end of a day exercise can relieve accumulated tensions, give you more energy in the evening, and help you sleep more restfully.

选项
答案病症引起的疲劳是某种潜在的身体功能紊乱的警报或后果，比如常见的感冒、流感或其它诸如癌症等更为严重的病症；除了疲劳感之处，还会出现其它症状，而这些症状往往表明真正的病因。
解析 此题目较长。虽然前半句话(while之前部分)比较长，但是却容易理解，不难翻译。难点在于定语从句that often suggest the true cause。由于该从句与其先行词other symptoms之间有表语at present相隔，不容易理解。我们可以通过语法上的主谓一致，即名词symptoms与动词suggest的复数一致来判断先行词和其定语从句。在翻译时，把定语从句翻译成独立的句子，以避免过长的前置定语，如"一些往往表明真正病因的其它的症状"。最后，连词while表示病症引起的疲劳和其它症状同时出现，可以翻译为"同时"，但是，这里翻译为"除了疲劳感之处"，以保持汉语前后两句的语义连贯。考查点：先行词和其定语从句的判断及翻译。
