閱讀測驗 (第 46-50 題) A wealth of research shows that hobbies are much more than afun way to pass the time. They build resilience, boost creativity, andeven improve your performance at work. Stressed-out entrepreneursbenefit from disconnecting and coming back to their companies withfresh eyes. All of which makes for a pretty compelling case for havinga hobby. But which hobby should you choose? If you’re looking for afew ideas, science has an unexpected suggestion: try singing. Why is singing special? First, it’s often social. We sing withothers in a garage band, church choir, or local chorus.

Singing isn’t just a form of emotional glue that helps bond us toothers. Solo singing offers plenty of unique benefits, too. That’s thesubject of a recent piece in The Conversation by singing professorMelissa Forbes, who lays out singing’s many mental and physicalhealth benefits. “Singing is increasingly being used to help improverespiratory health for a wide range of health conditions, includingchronic obstructive pulmonary disease, Parkinson’s, asthma, andcancer,” Forbes points out. Even if you’re lucky enough to have a healthy set of lungs, youmight want to consider singing to improve your mental health, Forbesargues. ______does singing help calm your mental chatter andrecenter your body, but it also encourages what psychologists call“flow state.” This is the state of mind in which you’ve lost track oftime because you’re so deeply immersed in an activity.
