Sitting in front of the television may be relaxing，but spending too much time in front of it may take years off your life.Watching television less may help you live a much longer life.

Australian researchers studied more than 11，000 people over the age of 25.Their study showed that if people watched TV for six hours a day，they lived about 4.8 years less than those who didn't watch any television.Also，people who are over the age of 25 lose 22 minutes of life for every hour of TV that they watch.

Sitting in front of the television isn't healthy.The more TV you watch，the less exercise you'll get.And the less exercise you get，the more likely it is that you'll get sick.

Lennert Veerman，the researcher who led the study，says watching too much TV will be bad for people's life expectancies(預(yù)期壽命)，even for people who have a good diet.He thinks it's necessary for doctors to start asking their patients about how much TV they watch，as it can be an indicator(指標)of someone's overall health.

Therefore，Veerman has called on people to turn off their TVs and get off the sofa to get some exercise.“Exercise is good，” he said.“Even light activity is good for health.”

1.Australian researchers did a study on ______.

A.how much time people spend watching TV

B.what people usually do to relax after work

C.how watching too much TV can have a bad influence(影響)on people

Many of us have feelings of loneliness as we grow up. Some teenagers can’t stand eating alone in the dining hall, and girls even go to the restroom hand in hand. They fear being called a “l(fā)oner”. In these cases, we might use the word “l(fā)oner” in a disapproving (不贊成的) way.

However, it can actually have a good meaning as well. It all depends on our attitude toward being alone.

“It’s hard to feel lonely when you’re trying to master a new skill, practice a hobby or try out a new recipe,” wrote US lifestyle writer Adrienne Breaux. She used to be a terrible cook, but whenever loneliness hit her, she would buy a lot of ingredients and figure out how to make them into delicious dishes. After a few months, she became good at cooking. If you can make use of your solo (單獨的) time, you’ll find that it won't trouble you.

“Honjok” Hit Korea

“Honjok” has become a growing lifestyle in South Korea. The word comes from “hon”

(alone) and “jok” (tribe 一族). These people eat alone, travel alone, and enjoy being by

themselves. “I hope it grows into a self-supporting culture of happiness,” said Jang

Jae Young, a South Korean who runs a website about this solo lifestyle called honjok.me.

Loner Economy (經(jīng)濟) in Japan

There are many solo karaoke bars and solo cafes in Japan. Ramen (拉面） restaurants for

solo diners are especially popular. Boards separate each seat. Diners fill out a form to

place an order, and then press a button to call the waiter. They don't see the faces of other

customers or waiters.

People are becoming more peaceful about being alone. This doesn’t mean we should totally shut ourselves from the outside world, of course. But it doesn’t hurt to have some “me time” once in a while.

The Loneliness

My heart has grown rich with the passing of years,

I have less need now than when I was young

To share myself with every comer

Or shape my thoughts into words

It is the same to me whether they come or go

As long as I have myself

Let them think I care, though I go alone;

If it lifts their pride, what is it to me

Who am self-complete as a flower or a stone.

1.What does the writer want to tell us by mentioning US lifestyle writer Adrienne Breaux?

2.How do you like the “l(fā)oners” in South Korea?

3.In the passage, the underlined word “this” refers to _______________.

5.Do you want to be a loner? Why or why not?
