　　Exercises and quitting smoking are thought to be important steps for a long, healthy life, but a new study suggests another potential tip for extending lifespan: make some friends.
　　人们认为锻炼身体和戒烟对健康长寿至关重要,但是一项新的研究表明,延长寿命可能还有一个技巧---交友。

　　The results show people with strong social relationships increased their odds of survival over a certain time period by 50 percent, the researchers say. That's on par with ceasing smoking, and nearly twice as beneficial as physical activity in terms of decreasing your odds of dying early.
　　研究人员说, 在一个特定的时期内,社会关系坚实的人的存活率增加了50%。在降低早逝几率方面,交友和戒烟的效果相同,其有益程度是锻炼的将近2倍。

　　The findings underscore just how important friendships are to our health, the researchers say.
　　研究人员说，这些研究结果突出表明，友情对我们的健康来说是多么的重要。

　　“I think we make a compelling case that social relationships should also be taken quite seriously in terms of reducing risk of mortality,”said study researcher Julianne Holt-Lunstad, a psychologist at Brigham Young University in Utah. “Our relationships can influence our health in a variety of ways, for instance, they can help us deal with stress – a deadly pastime. ”
　　犹他州杨伯翰大学心理学家,研究员朱莉安娜.霍尔特伦施泰特说：“我认为,我们令人信服地证明,人们在考虑减少死亡风险时还应该十分认真地看待社会关系。”霍尔特伦施泰特说,我们之间的关系能在很多方面影响我们的健康。例如,它可以帮助我们应对压力。

　　“Our friendships can also encourage healthy behaviors that have a direct impact on well-being. For example, our friends might encourage us to eat better, exercise, get more sleep or visit the doctor”. added by Holt-Lunstad.
　　友情还可以鼓励我们从事有益健康的行为。例如,我们的朋友可能鼓励我们饮食更健康,多运动,多休息或是去看病。
