Have you ever wondered why you feel very tired after an online meeting or classroom session，when you might not feel the same if the meeting was being held with everyone in the same room？This effect，nicknamed "Zoom fatigue"，is felt not just by students but by grown-ups as well，who are getting tired by video meetings as they work from home.
Now，a US scientist says he has identified four key reasons why video calls can be so exhausting.Jeremy Bailenson，from Stanford University in California，has spent more than 20 years looking at how different forms of online communication can affect people.He says the first reason video calls can feel tough is because people are constantly making eye contact with each other as they look down at their cameras.In normal meetings or classes，people are usually just looking at the speaker but during a video call everyone seems to be staring at everyone else.What's more，they can often seem uncomfortably close.
A second reason for fatigue may be that people are spending a lot of time looking at themselves on camera.Bailenson compared this to being followed around a school or workplace by someone holding up a mirror.Previous studies have suggested that staring into mirrors can make people feel more critical about themselves and doubtful of their abilities.
Working from home also means that many people aren't moving as much as they used to.Studies have shown that people can think more creatively while moving around but online meetings force people to sit still so they can stay on camera.
Bailenson's final reason is that it is more difficult to understand people's body language on a video call.With such a limited camera view，our brains have to work extra hard to interpret other people's gestures and expressions，and that can be very tiring.

1．Walk Out of the Comfort Zone and Try New Things For most high school students，free periods （課、節(jié)） are useless.From what I have seen，few do homework. （1）
.This makes it impossible for those who actually want to do work to complete any.As a senior next year，I think extra periods should be used to take optional subjects.
（2）.Now is the time for us students to choose a suitable one.We will experiment in different fields of study.We will never know if we are interested or talented in a subject if we don't try it.
In my 8th grade，I was told that I had to take an art class as a graduation requirement；so in the 9th grade I took Studio and Art.One of the projects was to build a clay pot，but I built mine incorrectly，so it broke in the kiln （窯）. （3）.Now I know for sure that I do not want to be an artist.However，the class was one of my favorites that year.I was able to try new activities and test my ability.
（4）!College is when we should focus on a specific major，but high school is when we have to figure it out.
Half of all college students change their major at some point.By doing that hundreds of dollars are wasted on classes that they would have never needed to take.So use our extra periods to find out what we want to do in college. （5）.
A.Our school offers many classes
B.We should find out what we are good at
C.I've avoided anything related to art since then
D.Instead，many are on their phones and talking
E.I found out that I have no artistic ability at all
F.Walk out of our comfort zone and try new things
G.The classes we choose can influence us in the future發(fā)布：2025/1/1 18:0:1組卷：7引用：5難度：0.5 -
