Ⅵ. 阅读理解(主题:人与社会·人际交往)
Talking to friends, family or workmates can make us feel happy. Not talking to others can also hurt our mind and body. A group of researchers found that just talking once a day could make people feel happier and less stressed. Jeffrey Hall, one of the researchers, said, “We can change how we feel by talking. Just one conversation can help.” The researchers found that sharing jokes, listening to others, talking about recent events, giving real compliments(称赞) and caring about others could help people feel better.
The researchers asked more than 900 people at five universities in the US to have one of these conversations every day. The people then said how they felt after talking. The researchers found that even one good conversation could make people feel better. But the people had better days after they had more good conversations. Hall said, “This means that the more you listen to your friends, care about them, and value their opinions, the better you feel at the end of the day.”
The researchers also said that meeting and talking face to face was better for our well-being than talking on the smartphone or social media.
