Gossip is hearing something we like about someone we dont and，in nearly every country in the world，gossip magazines have huge numbers of readersAccording to researchers，however，this kind of gossip also has a good side because it helps us put our own problems in perspective(正确地)“If we read bad news about well-known people，or get the frightful details of our neighbors bad situation over a cup of coffee，our own problems begin to pale in comparison(对比)，”says DrJack Levin of Northeastern UniversityHowever，that doesnt mean that gossip is necessarily a good thing，eitherResearchers found that people who gossip a lot tend to feel like theyre under a lot of stressThis might be because while theyre busy talking about other people，theyre also busy thinking what other people are saying about them（1）What is the purpose of the text?A .
