Many f us are lnelier than ever. We can g shpping and avid speaking t a single persn. Autmated vices n phnes and machines suck the cntact and relatinal element ut f day-t-day life, s much s that experts say that we are experiencing a lneliness disease.
Accrding t Dr. Lalitaa, lneliness is the feeling we get when ur need fr rewarding scial cntact and relatinships is nt met. But lneliness is nt always the same as being alne. Lneliness is a state f mind linked t wanting human cntact but feeling alne. Peple can be alne and nt feel lnely, r they can have cntact with peple and still experience feelings f lneliness.

Remember,it is never t late t make gd, meaningful cnnectins.”
Hwever, dn’t put pressure n yurself. A meaningful relatinship takes time. It is nt just created vernight. Als, take sme time t sit with yurself and venture (冒险) int sme f the things that yu like ding. “The first thing I wuld say is nt t deny r distance the feeling. Acknwledge it and then yu can chse t fcus n ways t help yurself,” says Dr. Lalitaa.
12．Hw des the authr clarify what lneliness is?
A．By stating arguments.
B．By giving examples.
C．By making cmparisns.
D．By emplying figures.
13．Why is smking cigarettes mentined in the text?
A．T explain the causes f lneliness.
B．T illustrate the harm frm lneliness.
C．T verestimate the impact f lneliness.
D．T emphasize the universality f lneliness.
