    It is generally believed that obesity is a global epidemic and crisis. But people's view on weight is keeping us from doing things to help us get {#blank#}1{#/blank#} healthy body. Obesity researchers hate{#blank#}2{#/blank#} when I say this, but their own data shows that obesity is not going to kill us. Most obese people don't have {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(short) lifespans (寿命) than non-obese people and in fact it's the underweight people {#blank#}4{#/blank#} are at most at risk.

    So why does everybody think obesity is deadly? One reason is that obesity is associated with three different things that {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(be) deadly and lead to shorter lifespan: being sedentary (久坐);{#blank#}6{#/blank#} (have) lower income; and not getting enough medical care. Everyone, the medial the medical community operate from the firm {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (assume) that obesity is deadly. So any evidences contradicting that are ignored. It is true that obese people are more likely {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(get) diabetes and cardiovascular disease. But there are two things you need to realize. First of all, the obesity paradox. When obese people get the {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (disease), they're less likely to die of them than non-obese people. Second, to reduce the risks that you may suffer from, you don't {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (actual) have to get thin. You just need to exercise.

    If you travel or go abroad, it's necessary to mix with the locals. This allows you {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (put) your language skills to the test and find out more about the local culture. {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (live) abroad for a long time, I've put together {#blank#}3{#/blank#} list of tips to help you make friends in a foreign country.

    Firstly, say yes to everything (within reason). Obviously, if you don't feel {#blank#}4{#/blank#}ease, you can choose not to do something. However, don't put off trying something new. The group of students from your class who invite you out for a coffee might end up {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (be) your friends for life!

    Secondly, find a hobby or try something {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (entire) new. Join a dance class, a walking club, or learn to cook the local food—the possibilities are endless!

    Thirdly, get out of the house! Hours {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (spend) in front of a computer with family and friends back home surely make you even more homesick. Make the most of the new and exciting place you live in.

    Lastly, don't be a wallflower. When surrounded by people speaking an unfamiliar language, you may feel it difficult to be {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (confidence) and involve {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (you) in conversations. Even so try to make your voice heard. It's very likely {#blank#}10{#/blank#} you will find everyone wants to know everything about you.
