10、ain is as much a part of aging as wrinkles and gray hair. But now a new book suggests that weve got it all wrong.According to The Secret Life of the Grown-up Brain, by science writer Barbara Strauch. when it comes to the important things, our brains actually get better with age. In fact, she argues
11、that some studies have found that our brain hits its peak between our 40s and 60s much later than previously thought.Furthermore, rather than losing many brain cells as wc age, we keep them, and even produce new ones well into middle age. For years its been assumed that brain, much like the body, de

But the longest, largest study into what happens to people as they age suggests otherwise.This continuing research has followed 6,(X)0 people since 1956, testing them every seven years. It has found that on average, participants performed better on cognitive (认知的)tests in their 40s

17、the COVID-19 pandemic, as social distancing has kept people apart physically, more people are logging on to popular video chat platforms to connect with colleagues, family and friends. And as a result, virtual meetings, or “zooming”, have skyrocketed. However, communication professor Jeremy Bailenso
18、n, founding director of the Stanford Virtual Human Interaction Lab (VHIL) examined the psychological consequences of spending hours per day on these platforms, warning that those video calls are likely tiring you out.In a normal meeting, people will variously be looking at the speaker, taking notes,
19、 or looking elsewhere. But on Zoom calls, everyone is looking at everyone, all the time. A listener is treated nonverbally like a speaker, so even if you dont speak once in a meeting, you are still looking at faces staring at you. The amount of eye contact is dramatically increased. Social anxiety o
20、f public speaking is one of the biggest fears that exist in our population; Bailenson said. When youre standing up there and everybodys staring at you, that,s a stressful experience.Most video platforms show a square of what you look like on camera during a chat, which is unnatural. Bailenson said,
21、uIn the real world, if somebody was following you around with a mirror constantly so that you were seeing yourself in a mirror while you were talking to people, making decisions, giving feedback, etc., that would just be crazy. He cited studies showing that when you see a reflection of yourself, you
22、 are more critical of yourself and there will be negative emotional consequences.Moreover, video chats dramatically reduce our usual mobility. In-person and audio phone conversations allow humans to walk around and move. But with videoconferencing, most cameras have a set field of view, meaning a pe

Drought-wrecked harvests can result in food-price uiwrediciabilily.Yet these domino effects are barely considered in most countries strategies fbr achieving the United Nations Sustainable
26、 Development Goals (SDGs) by 2030. Many countries that are working hard to reach these goals insufficiently consider the impact of extreme weather. Take Germany as an example. Its 2018 strategy on sustainable development runs to 60 pages yet the word disaster appears only once. There is no analysis
27、of the consequences of an increase in such events.Although many people are now aware that climate change is making fires, floods, heatwaves and storms more frequent, more severe or both, this knowledge isnt changing policy or research enough. Part of the problem is perception. Future disasters feel
28、unreal to decision-makers, as weve experienced with so many governments lack of pandemic preparedness, despite years of warning that something similar to COVID-19 was a case of when, not if. Other obstacles are inadequate national and international governance, and communication challenges. The resea
29、rch community has not yet provided effective guidance.As a consequence, many efforts to achieve the SDGs will, like a house of cards, fall at the first shaking. Our global efforts need to be much more vigorous to the changing and interconnected nature of risk in a wanning world.What now? Researchers
30、 must create models that are more understandable and useful to policymakers. When possible, SDG targets and indicators should be redesigned to capture weakness to heatwaves, fires, droughts, floods, hurricanes, mudslides and more. And politicians need to be convinced to invest in precautionary measu

However, different from writing in a journal, expressive writing is to reflect honestly and thoughtfully on a particular frustration or cha
34、llenge.A well-known psychology professor says that hundreds of studies have looked at (he potential benefits of expressive writing and found it can help reduce pain and improve mood, sleep and memory. It may even help reduce symptoms of various illnesses, and prevent colds and flu.Expressive writing
35、 takes effect because translating a painful experience into language allows people to make meaning out of it, some experts say.

The system delivers power directly from the electrical line straight to the trucks motor.Adapting the same equipment that is used for driving (rains and urban street cars, Siemens, the German electricity company, provided the equipment for th
42、e test route stringing miles of high-voltage electrical cable above the Autobahn.The cHighway system saves truckers weight and money compared to outfitting trucks with electric batteries which could be both heavy and expensive. Using overhead wires on the freeway, a truck would only need a big enoug
43、h battery to drive the short distance from the offramp to its destination. Not to mention, the money (rucking companies would save on fuel, their largest cost.While this system saves money in the long term, stringing thousands of miles of electrical cable above freeways would be costly to German tax
44、payers. Is it feasible? For now, Germany is just testing it out. The eHighway system has also been tested in Sweden and a 1-mile stretch near Long Beach, California.It would take 2,500 miles of electrical wiring to accommodate about 60% of German truck traffic. So far, only a couple 3-mile-stretches

By the end of the year, more than 20 trucks carrying real loads will be using (he system. The companies funding (he project want to see how the eHighway stretch performs in everyday

Germanys Ministry of Environment will compare the results of this project with studies of trucks using electric batteries and hydrogen fuel cells. Based on the data, (he ministry plans to decide in
47、three to four years which cco-fricndly technology to invest in and support.“Numerous studies have come to the conclusion that overhead cable trucks, despite the high infrastructure costs, arc the most cost-cffcctivc option/ the Ministry of Environment said to The New York Times.No matter which optio
