Scientists find that hardworking people live longer than the others. Career (职业) women are healthier than housewives. Facts show that the jobless are in poorer health than the jobholders (有工作者).
Why is work good for health? It’s because work keeps people busy, away from loneliness and solitude. Studies show that people feel unhappy, worried and solitary (孤独的) when they have nothing to do. Instead, the happiest persons are those who are busy. Many successful people who love their work feel that they’re the happiest when they’re working hard. By working together, people can contact (联系) with each other and find friendship and warmth. This is helpful to health.
Work can give one a sense of fulfillment (满足感). Work makes one feel his value in society. When a writer finished his writing he’s very happy. From the above we can learn that the more you work, the happier and healthier you will be. Let us work hard and study well and live a happy and healthy life.
