You’ll be all right.” He took Polly’s hand.‎ In his right hand the man carried a stick. Polly heard it hit the step. “I’m quite lost now.

Answer the questions （更具以下内容回答问题）（12 分）‎ Do you sometimes feel different, alone or left out? Teenagers need to feel they belong. They will feel upset when they have to eat alone in the cafeteria. They are afraid of being a “loner”（独来独往的人）.‎ But actually, being a loner has become a lifestyle in many countries among young people. It doesn’t always mean being strange or disliked.‎ In South Korea, there are more and more people who describe themselves as “honjok”. The word comes from “hon” (alone) and “jok” (tribe). These people eat alone, travel alone, and enjoy being alone.‎ In Japan, people have developed a strong loner culture for a couple of years. There are solo （单人的）karaoke bars and solo cafes. Ramen restaurants for solo diners are especially popular.‎ Knowing that you are not alone in being alone may make you feel better. But more importantly, you can try to find advantages in being alone. First, it gives you time to look inside yourself. Second, it can make you focus on something else. “It’s hard to feel lonely when you’re trying to practice a hobby.” wrote US lifestyle writer Adrienne Breaux. What’s more, you may have fewer but stronger friendships – which have been linked to greater happiness.‎ So instead of rushing to find someone to talk to or hang out with, you may want to have fun on your own. You can start by walking in a park or visiting a museum alone. It may seem strange and boring at first. But ________________. You may finally find beauty in being alone.‎ 第 ‎5 页 / 共 6 页 88. when will teenagers feel upset according to the writer?‎ 89. What has become a lifestyle among young people?‎ 90.
