我们通常认为朋友和家人是我们关系、快乐和温暖的最大源泉。虽然这很有可能是正确的,但是,最近研究人员也发现,与陌生人交流实际上可以改善情绪,并找到出人意料的归属感。
在我们的一系列研究中,研究人员建议,芝加哥地区的通勤者可以借助乘坐公共交通工具与身边的人交流。通常来说,那些听从指示的乘客远比那些被告知独自站立或静坐的人感觉要好得多。研究人员还认为,在日常生活中,我们之所以羞于与陌生人交流是因为我们不恰当的焦虑感——他们或许不愿意和我们交流。然而,大多数时候,这个想法是错误的。正如研究结果显示,很多人实际上非常乐意交流——甚至有可能因你的关注而感到满足。

It goes without saying that the chart records the survey on the methods of physical exercise among inhabitants in a certain city, which successfully arouses our curiosity. As is clearly reflected by the chart, exercise alone dominates the most by occupying 54.3%, next to which is workout with friends at about 47.7%. The figures for exercises with family and group activities are different, with 23.9% and 15.8% respectively.
Theoretically, several reasons may trigger the trend, but from my perspective, the following two are of utmost importance. On the top of list, it is universally convinced that that is mainly due to the fact that people growingly attach importance to physical health by doing some outdoor exercises, especially when we are all faced with the Covid-19 all over the world and general sub-health situation. In addition, owing to the burdensome workload and overwhelming social requirements, it is more widespread for people to enjoy the carefree time.
Taking all analysis above, we can draw a conclusion that this phenomenon is attributed to the contemporary health condition among people and nowadays social needs. And it is advisable for us to promote health with friends and family to forge closer bound.
