她在读什么？这不关你的事。

午餐是Bechtel的“私人”时间。

像很多美国人一样，她并不是一个人这样。

A new report found 46 percent of meals are eaten alone in America.More than half(53 percent)have breakfast alone and nearlyhalf(46 percent)have lunch by themselves.Only at dinnertime are we eating together anymore,74 percent,according to statistics from the report.一项新的报告指出美国人一日三餐一个人吃的比例是46%。

超过一半（53%）的人一个人吃早饭，并且将近一半（46%）的人一个人吃中饭。

据报告的统计数字，只有晚饭不再一个人吃，这个比例是74%。

“I prefer to go out and be out.Alone,but together,you know?” Bechtel said,looking up from her book.Bechtel,who works in downtown West Palm Beach,has lunch with coworkers sometimes,but like many of us,too often works through lunch at her desk.A lunchtime escape allows her to keep a boss from tapping her on the shoulder.She returns to work feeling energized.“Today,I just wanted some time to myself,” she said.“我更喜欢出去，出去。

一个人，但又和大家在一起，你知道吗？”Bechtel从看着的书本上抬头说道。

Bechtel在市中心的西棕榈滩酒店上班。

有时候和同事一起吃午餐，但像我们许多人一样，经常在办公桌旁解决自己的午餐问题。

午饭时间离开办公室出去吃饭可以使她避开老板，免得又被老板拍肩膀所困扰。

重新回到办公室又是精力充沛。

“今天，我只是希望有一些自己的私人时间”她说道。

Just two seats over, Andrew Mazoleny,a local videographer,is finishing his lunch at the bar.He likes that he can sit and check his phonein peace or chat up the barkeeper with whom he’s on a first-name basis if he wants to have a little interaction(交流).“I reflect on how my day’s gone and think about the rest of the week,” he said.“It’s a chance for self-reflection.You return to work recharged and with a plan.”坐在离她仅两个位子之外的Andrew Mazoleny是当地的一个电视录像制作人。

他刚刚在本酒吧吃完午餐。

他喜欢坐在那里平静的翻阅手机。

另外他还喜欢和酒吧服务员朋友般的聊上几句，如果他想聊的话。

“我会反思这周过的怎样，还会思考一下这周剩下的日子如何安排”他说道。

“这是一个自我反省的机会。

这样你回去工作仿佛又充满了电一样，而且心里有谱。

”That freedom to choose is one reason more people like to eat alone.There was a time when people may have felt awkward about asking for a table for one,but those days are over.Now,we have our smartphones to keep us company at the table.“It doesn’t feel as a lone as it may have before all the advances in technology,” said Laurie Demeritt,whose company provided the statistics for the report.可以自由的选择是更多的人喜欢一个人吃饭的原因之一。
