[背景了解]
文章取自于2005年6月的阅读真题,是关于季节性消沉症的内容,
选段不长,希望耐心看下,自己先猜下红色单词的意思吧
[文章部分]
In any event, you should choose a reputable manufacturer. Whatever product you use should emit only visible light, because ultraviolet light damages the eyes. If you are photosensitive(对光敏感的), you may develop a rash. Otherwise, the main drawback is having to sit in front of the light for 30 to 60 minutes in the morning. That’s an inconvenience many winter depressives can live with.
