There's one thing people are most scared of when it comes to dying - how much pain they will be in at the end. According to members of the UK public, this beats dying alone, and leaving family and friends behind.

临近死亡时，人们最害怕这件事--在痛苦中离世。据英国民众表示，这比孤独终老、离开家人和朋友还要可怕。

Two new surveys, carried out for the charity by YouGov, who surveyed 1,878 cancer patients, who surveyed 1,786 members of the general public, revealed the overwhelming result. Over a quarter (28%) of people with cancer and one fifth (20%) of the UK public say dying in pain is their top fear about death.

YouGov为了慈善活动开展了两项新研究，调查了1878名癌症患者和1786名普通大众，研究揭示了这个令人难以置信的结果。四分之一以上的癌症患者（28%）和五分之一的英国民众表示疼痛难忍的离世是他们对离世的最大恐惧。

Despite this fear topping the polls, Macmillan Cancer Support says that over 12,000 cancer patients in England each year spend their last 48 hours in pain. Macmillan is urging the government to prioritise care for dying people, and stick to the promises made one year ago, 5 July 2016, in their Commitment to improve end of live care, and repeated in the General Election Manifesto.

虽然人们最害怕痛苦，但迈米伦癌症支援表示，英国每年有12000名癌症患者最终都在痛苦中度过最后的48小时。迈米伦敦促政府优先照顾将死之人，坚守一年前（2016年7月5日）所作的承诺，他们承诺改善临终护理，并在大选宣言中重复了这一承诺。
