Many of us live with a roommate at times. Sometimes, there can be problems.Such as whose turn it is to take out the trash, or who should be the one to clear up after dinner?1.
2.There' s always someone to talk to, so you need never be lonely.
Besides these obvious benefits, there are some you may not notice.3.when living with others.To examine the effect of living alone,Australian university researchers did much research and found that people living alone tended to eat less fresh food including fruits and vegetables,which can have side effects on long-term health. However, those living with others generally got benefits from a more varied diet compared to those living alone.
4. The researchers believe the social and cultural roles played by cooking, food preparation and eating may be important considerations. For example,those living with friends have someone else to go shopping with, and thus, they are more likely to buy higher-quality fresh food regularly.
In addition, a person living alone can eat whatever they want at any time of the day. However, it' s helpful to have someone around who questions your decision to eat frozen pizza at 3:O0 am.5.
So, if you now live alone, fighting a losing battle against poor eating habits, why not consider sharing a home with someone else ?
A. However,There are always ways to solve these problems.
B. You know that there' s always someone else around who can help you feel safer.
C. However, living with another person also comes with many benefits.
D. For example, we 're actually more likely to eat healthier food.
E. In other words, roommates can draw your attention to such an unhealthy routine.
F.Living with roommates will have a good atmosphere.
G. What could explain this?
The world’s insects are hurtling down the path to extinction, threatening a “catastrophic collapse of nature’s ecosystems”, according to the first global scientific review. More than 40% of insect species are declining and a third are endangered, the analysis found. The rate of extinction is eight times faster than that of mammals, birds and reptiles.
“It should be of huge concern to all of us, for insects are at the heart of every food web, they pollinate the large majority of plant species, keep the soil healthy, recycle nutrients, control pests, and much more. Love them or loathe them, we humans cannot survive without insects, ” said Prof Dave Goulson at the University of Sussex in the UK.
The analysis, published in the journal Biological Conservation, says intensive agriculture is the main driver of the declines, particularly the heavy use of pesticides. Urbanization and climate change are also significant factors.
One of the biggest impacts of insect loss is on the many birds, reptiles, amphibians and fish that eat insects. A small number of adaptable species are increasing in number, but not nearly enough to outweigh the big losses.
Matt Shardlow, at the conservation charity Buglife, said: “It is gravely sobering to see this collation of evidence that demonstrates the pitiful state of the world’s insect populations. It is increasingly obvious that the planet’s ecology is breaking and there is a need for an intense and global effort to stop and reverse these dreadful trends.”
