如何表達“鬱積的憤懣”？

南京的讀者應該對這幅圖片見怪不怪。近日，南京首家“泄憤吧”在陞州路某夜縂會開業，圖片中，鬱悶美眉正對“泄憤模特”拳打腳踢，以發泄心頭鬱積的憤懣。

　　請詳看圖片說明:A customer （R） attacks a staff member at the Rising Sun Anger Release Bar in Nanjing, capital of east China's Jiangsu Province August 7, 2006.

　　Stressed-out Chinese can now unleash pent-up anger at a bar that lets customers attack staff, smash glasses and generally make a ruckus, a Chinese newspaper reported on Monday. The Rising Sun Anger Release Bar in Nanjing employs 20 muscled young men as"models" for customers to punch and scream at.

　　隨著生活節奏加快、工作競爭壓力增大，人們心頭的鬱悶也是越積越多，pent-up anger恰到好処地形容了鬱積在高壓之下的憤懣。

　　Pent-up（壓抑的）由動詞詞組pen up衍生而來，pent是pen的過去分詞。Pen除了表達“鋼筆”外，還可用來形容“柵欄；把…關起來”，如The desire to travel has been pent up for the last two years.（近兩年來，心中老是憋著想出門旅行的唸頭）。

　　另外，pent-up常用來形容emotion（情感）、love（愛）、hatred（仇恨）等情感名詞，而“釋放、發泄”這些情感則常用release，unleash等動詞來表達。
