Feeling lonely can make you sick. Doctors have long known that loneliness can cause many health problems and even death. What they didn’t know is 16 this feeling causes illness. A study in the online magazine Genome Biology 17 that loneliness actually influences the important part of our bodies—our genes.
In a small population of patients, researchers 18 more than 20,000 genes to compare how the genes of lonely and non-lonely individuals (个体) express themselves in molecular processes (分子过程) and in personal health. They found that gene expression is 19 in chronically (长期地) lonely people. “We now have a new way for understanding the relationship 20 social experience and physical health,” explains the study’s lead author, Steve Cole of University of California, Los Angeles.
“This study—the first to link (联系) 21 with gene changes—is special and exciting,” says Emma Adam, a professor of human development at Northwestern University. “It 22 in the black box.”
According to John Cacioppo, an author of the study from the University of Chicago, the
work suggests that loneliness is a warning 23 , much like physical pain. “This feeling is so bad because 24 of us wants to be forgotten; that’ s also what human means,” he says. “It makes us 25 for other people and want to be with friends when we’re lonely.”

Most adults once studied at school, had classes and did their homework every day. The same 36 is going on at school now. 37 it seems that doing weekend home-work is 38 problem for the modern students.
All the students should agree that weekend homework should be canceled. It's 39 for them to study at school five days a week. They have a lot of interests. With homework to do on Saturday and Sunday, how can they find 40 to help around the house, go and see a football or basketball game or a good film, join in family recreations (娱乐), or just have 41 _ at home? Because of these other activities, the homework can't be finished until 42 . So their weekend homework is usually done in such a hurry that on Monday teachers are 43 and often threaten (威胁) to fail whole class of students because they know nothing about the 44 . If there were no weekend homework for the students to do, they would be happy to go to school on Monday _ 45 _ having a good rest and to learn what the teachers teach.
