Americans lead the world in obesity, with roughly two-thirds of the US population now overweight. Again, many factors underlie this, including a diet of cheap, unhealthy fried foods, but the sedentary time spent in front of the TV is an important influence as well.
毫无疑问，沉迷电视对个人的身体和精神健康都有害。美国是世界上肥胖症最严重的国家，当前，大约2/3的美国人身体都过胖。当然导致身体过胖的原因也有很多，包括长期吃廉价、不健康的油炸食品，不过长时间坐在电视机前不动也是一个很重要的原因。
