第2241期:Boots made for men an injury risk to women footballers

The profile and popularity of women's football has soared in recent years. But most products are still predominantly designed for men. This even includes football boots.近年来，女子足球的受关注程度和人气都大幅上升。但大多数足球产品仍主要为男性设计，其中还包括足球靴。Women's feet are not the same shape as men's – they also move differently on the pitch – so wearing boots designed for men makes blisters, stress fractures and injuries more likely.女性的脚和男性的脚的形状不一样。其次，女球员在场上的移动方式也不一样。因此，让女性穿专为男性设计的球靴更易导致脚起水疱、应力性骨折和受伤。But the authors acknowledge there has been progress, and it's hoped many of the major manufacturers will develop boots specifically for women for the World Cup next year.但文章作者们承认，缺乏为女球员专门设计的装备的现象已经得到了一定的改善，同时，他们希望大型球靴制造商能为参加明年女足世界杯的女球员专门设计球靴。词汇表profile 受（公众）关注度，知名度soared 飙升，猛增predominantly 主要地，占绝大多数地blisters 水疱stress fractures 应力性骨折injuries 受伤，损伤acknowledge 承认
