题目
Feel sad?Hug a tree!Recently,many Chinese young people turn to trees to help with their problems.Maybe it sounds strange,but there\’s a science behind the tree-hugging.
The "biophilia hypothesis（亲生命假说）" tells us the reason.It was from US scientist Edward Wilson in 1984.He said that our humans （人类） are born to love being around other living things.Humans\’ love for nature （自然） is "in our DNA".This idea helps us know about why people choose green,natural places instead of city views.It\’s also one of the reasons why people love cute pets.
Some studies show why tree-hugging can help with our health.A study in 2021 reported that the activity can increase oxytocin （催产素）.It has something to do with our feelings.The higher the level （水平） of oxytocin is,the happier you may be.Hugging trees for only 21 seconds can bring more oxytocin in our body.
What\’s more,when a person is angry,sad or very anxious,more cortisol （皮质醇） come out.Hugging trees helps make cortisol less and less,which makes us feel better.
The activity is helpful to us,but it\’s important to remember that we shouldn\’t hurt nature when doing it.Trees are important because many small animals live on the trees.You may want to be gentle when hugging trees - just like how you hug a friend!
