Most Germans would prefer watching their team contesting the World Cup final than having sex with their partners, a survey here has revealed on Thursday。

　　上周四公布的一项调查显示，多数德国人愿为观看本国球队争夺世界杯冠军的决赛而舍弃做爱。

　　Should Joachim Loew's side reach the final in Johannesburg on July 11, a potential night of passion would be shown the red card by most Germans in favour of the chance to see their team in action on television。

　　本届世界杯决赛将于7月11日在约翰内斯堡举行，如果尤阿希姆?勒夫带领的德国国家足球队能挺进决赛，多数德国人将宁愿舍弃与伴侣的激情之夜，而去观看本国球队比赛的电视转播。

　　In a survey for the Reader's Digest magazine, only five percent of those questioned would prefer a night between the sheets with their loved one to watching Germany contest the World Cup final。

　　一项为《读者文摘》杂志开展的调查显示，仅有5%的受访者愿意舍弃比赛，与爱人共度良宵。

　　And only an emergency would stop 52 percent watching the final live, while a fifth of all those surveyed said not even that excuse would prevent them being glued to the television, should Germany reach the final。

　　52%的受访者会因紧急情况而舍弃比赛，五分之一的受访者表示如果德国队挺进决赛，无论发生什么情况，都不会阻止他们看比赛。

　　但38%的受访者表示他们对足球不感兴趣。

　　However, Germany's success on the field can turn up the heat in the nation's bedrooms: there were a flood of new-born babies here nine months after the national side finished third at the World Cup four years ago。

　　但德国队在绿茵场上的胜利会让德国人性趣大增。德国在四年前的世界杯上夺得季军九个月后，该国出现了一轮婴儿潮。
