Unit 2 Fit for life 我们都想有一个健康的生活方式，但是日常生活中的一些小细节却使我们的生活变得不那么健康了。 Is your lifestyle healthy? There may be many little and common habits that can endanger your daily life.Do you have the following unhealthy life habits? Lying Whether you're praising your best friend's unflattering hairstyle or “improving” on the cost of your new designer shoes，you tell small lies from time to time.However，according to research，those little white lies could be more harmful than you think. Lying can produce feelings of stress which are damaging your health，and a study by researchers at the University of Notre Dame found that when people reduced the number of lies they told，they suffered from less headaches，sore throats and anxiety. Eating at your desk If you're having a busy day in work，it can be tempting to skip your lunch break and eat at your desk.However，missing out on breaks is not only bad for your stress levels，eating when distracted may also mean you are more likely to overeat.Furthermore，spending your lunch hour at your desk can lengthen the time you are physically inactive and also expose you to harmful bacteria. According to a study by the University of Arizona，your work station contains nearly 400 times more germs than the average toilet seat，making it a less than ideal place for dining. Using cash machines Withdrawing money from ATM machines is a common habit for most of us.However，cleanliness tests in Britain have revealed that cash machines are just as dirty as public toilets，and many of us are failing to wash our hands after using them.Experts assessed swabs from the key pads on cash machines and also from nearby public toilets and found that they both contained the same types of bacteria known to cause sickness.To look after your health，use an antibacterial hand solution once you have made your withdrawal and after handling money.
