题目内容:
The French are followed by the Americans and the Spanish, with both nations sleeping around eight and a half hours per day. However, with an hour fewer than the French, Japanese and Korean people sleep the least among the 30 member countries of the OECD, around seven hours and 50 minutes a day.
“The French, who are known worldwide for their cooking skills, also spend more time eating than anyone else and it nearly doubles that of Americans, Canadians or Mexicans,” the OECD, a club of many developed countries, says. They spend more than two hours a day eating, followed by the New Zealanders and Japanese, who also spend close to two hours daily at the table. In Italy, which is another country with a worldwide cooking reputation (名声), and Belgium, people spend around one hour and 50 minutes a day eating. Spaniards, Germans and Swedes also spend more than an hour and a half a day eating, while Finns, Norwegians and Britons spend the least time at the table (around one hour and 20 minutes).
Their way of life seems to have a big effect on French people's life time, since they are among the top three nations living the longest, together with the Japanese and Spaniards. An average Japanese woman lives to almost 86 years, while a man lives to 79. French and Spanish women live up to 84.4 years, and men 77.3 and 77.7 years. Hungarians are the European OECD nation living the shortest lives, with women's life time at 77.4 years and men's at 69.
