Question

【题目】

A recent study from a team of South Korean researchers suggests that eating alone often may lead to poor eating habits and poor food choices .Specifically ,the study found that men who ate alone more than twice a week had a greater risk of developing high blood pressure ,high cholesterol and diabetes .

For children ,eating with their families is not only about preventing bad outcomes(结果)—it is also about developing good ones .

In 2014, the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development(OECD) looked at data from nearly three-quarters of the world’s countries .Among its findings was the fact that students who shared a main meal with their families were less likely to skip school .Children who eat a main meal with their families are also less likely to abuse drugs and alcohol(吸毒酗酒).

In the report ,titled “The Importance of Family Dinners (VIII) ”, researchers say that “teens who have frequent family dinners are more likely to say their parents know a lot about what’s going on in their lives ”. They also claim that when teens say they feel closer to their parents ,they are less likely to use drugs and alcohol .

Another study from the University of Montreal found that children who ate with their families experience long –term physical and mental health benefits(好处) .These children were physically in better shape and drank fewer sugary soft drinks .These children also seemed to have better social skills and they were less aggressive(好斗的)。

Professor Linda Pagani says that mealtimes shared with parents “likely provide young children with first-hand social interactions ,discussions of social issues(事件) and day-to-day concerns ” .She adds that they may likely help the child have better communication skills with others .
