     Good evening, ladies and gentlemen and welcome to this of the Box Bill Tennis Club. It's good to see so
many of you here this evening. I'm sure you're all enjoyed the fine food, and that you are ready to hear our
guest speaker.
     Ladies and gentlemen, we're pleased to welcome our most famous club champion, Billy Rogers, to our
meeting.
     Billy needs no introduction because he is one of the most well-known tennis players in our country.
However, I must mention a few things about him. Billy has won the US Open three times,and Wimbledon
twice. He has won more tennis tournaments (錦標(biāo)賽) than any player from this country. He has been ranked
number one in the world in both singles and doubles. He has played in the Davis Cup and the Hopman Cup
for his country. His Wimbledon victory two years ago has been called one of the bravest in the modern time.
Had he not been injured, he would undoubtedly have won a third Wimbledon Championship. Billy is regarded
by many as perhaps the finest player ever in international tennis.
     But of course Billy is much more than a tennis champion.
     He is like an ambassador for the sport and for his country. He has done great work to help children around
the world,and his generosity to children's charity funds is well known.
     And of course, Billy is the most successful graduate of our club. He won the club championships when
he was twelve-yes, at only twelve. And Billy has not forgotten where it all started. That's why he accepted
our invitation to speak to us tonight. We're proud to have played a small part in Billy's success.
     Won't you please give a big hand to our own Billy Rogers?

     Most people feel lonely sometimes, but it usually only lasts between a few minutes and a few hours. This
kind of loneliness is not serious. In fact, it is quite normal. For some people, though, loneliness can last for
years. Now researchers say there are three different types of loneliness.
     The first kind of loneliness is temporary (暫時(shí)的). This is the most common type. It usually disappears
quickly and does not require any special attention. The second kind, situational loneliness, is a natural result
or a particular situation-for example, a family problem, the death of a loved one, or moving to a new place.
Although this kind of loneliness can cause physical problems, such as headaches and sleeplessness, it usually
does not last for more than a year.
     The third kind of loneliness is the most severe. Unlike the second type, chronic (長期的) loneliness usually
last more than two yeas and has no specific cause. People who experience habitual loneliness have problems
socializing and becoming close to others. Unfortunately, many chronically lone people think there is little or
nothing they can do to improve their condition.
     Psychologists (心理學(xué)家) agree that one important fact in loneliness is a person's social contacts, e.g,
friends, family members, co-workers, etc. We depend on various people for different reasons. For instance,
our families give us emotional support, our parents and teachers give us guidance, and our friends share similar
interests and activities. However, psychologists have found that, though lone people may have many social
contacts, they sometimes feel they should have more. They question their own popularity.
     Psychologists are trying to find ways to help habitually lonely people for two reasons: they are unhappy
and unable to socialize and there is a connection between chronic loneliness and serious illness such as heart
disease. While temporary and situational loneliness can be a normal, healthy part of life, chronic loneliness
can be a very sad, and sometimes dangerous condition.
