You play as the “mother” of a frog who lives alone and enjoys traveling. You need to prepare food and tools for his trips. The frog will send you postcards while he is away.The games popularity may have something to do with how lonely people are these days, according to the Xinhua News Agency. Many players have said that the lonely frog is just like them. But playing with the frog helps them forget their loneliness for a short time.Loneliness seems to be a common problem today. According to the Guardian, about 40 percent of American adults say theyre lonely. And in the UK, about one in five people in the country are “always or often lonely”, TheTelegraph reported.This might be why the UK government declared（宣布） the countrys very first “Minister of Loneliness”（孤独大臣） in January. The ministers job is to find ways to help UK citizens feel less lonely. The ministers office will provide more money for activities that connect people together.This loneliness problem may be partly because of social media. When we see pictures of friends having fun or posting selfies（自拍） without us, we may compare their “perfect” lives with our own and feel inferior（较差的） and lonely.But we should remember that no one is destined（注定） to be lonely. As the UK poet John Donne once wrote, “No man is an island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the continent（陆地）, a part of the main”.Tips to get rid of loneliness:Sing your favorite songs.Connect with a friend.Do something creative, such as drawing a picture.Imagine some place youd like to visit, like a fun gathering or a sporting event.21.What do players do while playing TravelFrog?A.Build houses for their frogs.B.Pr
