Watching Sports is Good for You

 

Baseball! Basketball! Soccer! Playing sports is good for us. We get exercise.

We become healthier. Playing sports makes us feel happy too. We make friends.

We are part of a team or a group. That's good for us too.

棒球、籃球、足球!

從事運動可以讓我們會變得更健康，還會交到朋友，成為團隊的一份子。

Many of us don't play sports. But maybe we watch sports. This doesn't make us

exercise. But it can make us feel happy. So… is watching sports good for us?

大部分的人不玩運動，但我們會看運動賽事，雖然沒有做運動，還是會讓我們感到快樂。那看運動賽事對我們好嗎?

Researchers in Japan studied people who watch sports. They looked at lots of

data. They asked questions. They studied pictures of people's brains after

the people watched sports.

日本研究員研究看運動賽事的人，向他們問問題又看了很多數據，研究他們看完比賽後的腦部影像。

The researchers say watching sports alone is good for us. But watching with

many people is better!

研究員說一個人看比賽有助於身心健康，跟一群人一起看會更好。

At a sports stadium, we don't know the people around us. That's okay! We like

the same team. We are friends for a few hours. We are in a big group. We feel

happy we have friends and are in a group. That's good for us!

在球場看比賽的時候，我們不認識周圍的人!

但是沒關係，只要我們支持同一隊，在這幾個小時我們就是朋友，都是一個團體，我們就會很快樂!

Playing sports AND watching sports are good for us! Are you going to watch

some sports now?
