Have you ever wondered why you feel very tired after an online meeting or classroom session,when you might not feel the same if the meeting was being held with everyone in the same room?This effect,nicknamed "Zoom fatigue",is felt not just by students but by grown-ups as well,who are getting tired by video meetings as they work from home.
Now,a US scientist says he has identified four key reasons why video calls can be so exhausting.Jeremy Bailenson,from Stanford University in California,has spent more than 20 years looking at how different forms of online communication can affect people.He says the first reason video calls can feel tough is because people are constantly making eye contact with each other as they look down at their cameras.In normal meetings or classes,people are usually just looking at the speaker but during a video call everyone seems to be staring at everyone else.What's more,they can often seem uncomfortably close.
A second reason for fatigue may be that people are spending a lot of time looking at themselves on camera.Bailenson compared this to being followed around a school or workplace by someone holding up a mirror.Previous studies have suggested that staring into mirrors can make people feel more critical about themselves and doubtful of their abilities.
Working from home also means that many people aren't moving as much as they used to.Studies have shown that people can think more creatively while moving around but online meetings force people to sit still so they can stay on camera.
Bailenson's final reason is that it is more difficult to understand people's body language on a video call.With such a limited camera view,our brains have to work extra hard to interpret other people's gestures and expressions,and that can be very tiring.

3.Dear Laura,
Thanks for letting us to stay at your seaside house. Now, you might have heard from your neighbors about which happened on Saturday evening. When I was out a walk, my younger son, Tom, played football before your house. He made so many noise that the neighbors got quite angrily. Even worse, Tom broke one of the window of Mr. Wilson's house. Tom and I apologized to all the neighbors for the unhappy happenings, but promised to have the broken window repair soon. Tom said that we would not do such silly things any more. I am glad that your neighbors had forgiven us. They are really nice people.
Yours,
