20、hers asked 15,000 Spanish university graduates who hadnever had depression what they normally ate.Then they asked them again,10 years later.Theresearchers looked at how closely the participants everyday diets stuck to three healthy dietpatterns,in which they consumed high amounts of fruits,vegetable
21、s,legumes(豆类),nuts andfish,and avoided processed meats.These principles are part of the Mediterranean diet and otherhealthy diets.The researchers found that the people in the study who stuck to healthy patterns to amoderate or a high degree had a lower risk of depression than those who did not follo
22、w thesediets at all,or who stuck to them to a low degree.For example,the risk of depression over thestudy period for the people who moderately stuck to the Mediterranean diet was about 25 to 30percent lower than those who did not stick to the diet at all,or who stuck to it only to a very lowdegree.T

28、more than theaverage man.Women also speak more quickly,devote more brainpower to chit-chat,and actually enjoyhearing their own voices,a new book suggests.The book written by a female psychiatrist,Dr.Luan Brizendine says that inherent(生来就有的)differences between the male and femalebrain explain why wom
29、en are naturally more talkative than men.In The Female Mind,Brizendine says the differences can be traced back to the womb(子宫),where the sex hormone(激素)called testosterone moulds the developing male brain.The areasresponsible for communication,emotion and memory are all reduced before a baby boy is
