A newlypublished study has shown that loneliness can spread from one person to another, like a disease. Researchers used information from the Framingham Heart Study, which began in 1948. The Framingham Heart Study gathers information about physical and mental health, personal behavior and diet. At first, the study involved(使参加) about 5,000 people in the American state of Massachusetts. Now more than 12,000 individuals(个人) are taking part.
Information from the Framingham Heart Study showed earlier that happiness can spread from person to person. So can behavior like littering and the ability to stop smoking.
The University of Chicago psychologist John Cacioppo led the recent study. He and other researchers attempted to show how often people felt lonely. They found that the feeling of loneliness spread through social groups.
Having a social connection with a lonely person increased the chances that another individual would feel lonely. In fact, a friend of a lonely person was 52% more likely to develop feelings of loneliness. A friend of that person was 25% more likely. The researchers said this shows that a person could indirectly be affected by someone's loneliness.
The effect was strongest among friends. Neighbors were the second most affected group. The effect was weaker on husbands and wives, and brothers and sisters. The researchers

also found that loneliness spread more easily among women than men.
The New York Times newspaper reported that, on average (平均来看), people experience feelings of loneliness about 48 days a year. It also found that every additional (额外的) friend can decrease loneliness by about five percent, or two and a half fewer lonely days.
Loneliness has been linked to health problems like depression(抑郁症) and sleeping difficulties. The researchers believe that knowing the causes of loneliness could help reduce it.
The study suggested that people can take steps to stop the spread of loneliness. They can do this by helping individuals they know who may be experiencing loneliness. The result can be helpful to the whole social group.

No one can tell for sure when the building of the Great Wall was started，but it is popularly believed that it originated as a military fortification(要塞)against intrusion by tribes on the borders during the earlier Zhou Dynasty.Late in the Spring and Autumn Period，some states extended the defence work to prevent the attacks from other states.
It was not until the Qin Dynasty that the separate walls were connected to form a defensive system by Emperor Qin Shi Huang.After the emperor unified the country in 214 BC，he ordered the construction of the wall.It took about ten years to finish and the wall stretched from Gansu Province to Jilin Province.The wall not only served as a defence in the north but also symbolized the power of the emperor.
Further construction also experienced several dynasties.The present Great Wall in Beijing is mainly remains from the Ming Dynasty.Today，the Great Wall has become a mustsee for every visitor to China.Few cannot help saying “Wow”when they stand on top of a beacon tower(灯塔)and look at this giant dragon.It has become a national pride of Chinese people.
