30、cribe it.men and women also tend to have a very different non-verbal way of communicating, which can also make it very hard for one another to understand what the opposite sex is trying to say. mens body language is much more reserved when talking to women. men tend not to make as much eye contact a

31、nd they generally stay farther away from women when talking to them. men avoid other peoples body space while talking, and they also tend to sit back when talking. all of these have given off the impression of disinterest or boredom. women are by far better listeners and much more enjoyable to talk

33、hat fun would it be if we all spoke the same “l(fā)anguage”? the little games men and women play with each other while conversing would be lost. the question everyone asks himself or herself after talking with someone of the opposite sex, “i wonder if theres something there?” would no longer exist.28. w

37、4 million people between 40 and 80 found that having a dog was associated with a 23% reduction in death from heart disease and a 20% lower risk of dying from any cause over the 12 years of the study. dog owners show better responses to stress (their blood pressure and pulse rates don't get high)

38、, and have higher levels of physical activity and slightly lower cholesterol(膽固醇) levels. the american heart association (aha) was sufficiently swayed (動搖) by a review of dozens of studies to release a statement in 2013 saying that owning a dog “was probably” associated with a reduced risk of heart
