This kind of loneline

51、ss is not serious. In fact, it is quite normal. For some people, though, loneliness can last for years. Now researchers say there are three different types of loneliness. The first kind of loneliness is temporary. This is the most common type. It usually disappears quickly and does not require any s

52、pecial attention. The second kind, situationfor example, family problem, the death of a loved one, or moving to a new place. Although this kind of loneliness can cause physical problems, such as headaches and sleeplessness, it usually does not last for more than a year. The third kind of loneliness

53、is the most severe. Unlike the second type, chronic（the opposite of “temporary”）usually lasts more than two years and has no specific cause. People who experience habitual loneliness have problems socializing and becoming close to others. Unfortunately, many chronically lonely people think there is

54、little or nothing they can do to improve their condition. Psychologists agree that one important factor in loneliness is a persons social contacts, for example, friends, family members, co-workers, etc. We depend on various people for different reasons. For instance, our families give us emotional s

55、upport, our parents and teachers give us guidance, and our friends share similar interests and activities. However, psychologists have found that, though lonely people may have many social contacts, they sometimes feel they should have more. They question their popularity. Psychologists are trying t

One reason is that many people believe

61、d rumors that iodized salt could prevent the hurt of radiation. As a result, they rushed to buy salt. Other people worried about an increase of price so they followed. Another reason is the lack of common sense among the public. As we know, it is not helpful enough to guard against radiation even by taking larger amounts of salt than usual. So in my opinion, panic buying of salt is absolutely unnecessary.
