13、How to Improve Your Memory

Memory is an essential part of our lives, whether it's for studying, working, or daily activities. If you're looking to enhance your memory, here are some effective strategies.

1. Get Enough Sleep

Sleep plays a crucial role in memory consolidation. When you sleep, your brain processes and stores new information. Lack of sleep can make it difficult to concentrate and remember things. Aim for 7 - 8 hours of quality sleep every night.

2. Exercise Regularly

Physical activity not only keeps your body healthy but also benefits your brain. Exercise increases blood flow to the brain, which provides more oxygen and nutrients. It can also stimulate the growth of new brain cells, improving memory function.

3. Use Mnemonic Devices

Mnemonic devices are memory aids that help you remember information more easily. For example, you can create acronyms, rhymes, or mental images If you need to remember a list of items, you can form an acronym by taking the first letter of each word.

4. Stay Mentally Active

Keep your brain engaged by reading, solving puzzles, or learning a new language.These activities challenge your brain and keep it sharp. Just like your body needs exercise, your brain needs mental stimulation.

5. Organize Information

When you have a lot of information to remember, organize it into categories or a logical structure. This makes it easier for your brain to store and retrieve the information. For example, if you're studying history, you can organize events chronologically.

A. This can significantly improve your memory.

B. These devices can turn difficult - to - remember information into something more memorable.

C. A good night's sleep is like a "reset" button for your brain.

D. Try to find activities that you enjoy and that challenge your cognitive abilities.

E. It can also help you recall information more quickly.

F. Make sure you have a comfortable sleep environment.

G. This way, you can better understand and remember it.

14、Does using an eco-friendly paper straw (吸管) give you a good feeling because you're doing something for the environment? "Straws made from plant-based materials, such as paper and bamboo, are often advertised as being more sustainable and eco-friendly than those made from plastic," says researcher Dr. Thimo Groffen, an environmental scientist at the University of Antwerp. "However, the presence of PFAS in these straws means that could be discredited."

PFAS chemicals, infamous for their longevity and potential harm, can adversely affect humans, wildlife and the environment. They biodegrade (生物降解) very slowly over time and can persist over thousands of years in the environment, a property that has led to them being known as "forever chemicals". They are linked to various health issues, including thyroid disease, liver damage, kidney cancer and so on. Furthermore, these chemicals are used in everyday items, such as outdoor clothing and non-stick pans, to make them water- and heat-resistant.

For a more in-depth analysis, the research team purchased 39 different brands of drinking straws made from five materials—paper, bamboo, glass, stainless steel and plastic, and then conducted two rounds of testing for PFAS. They found that most brands (69%) contained PFAS, with 18 different PFAS detected in total. In paper straws, PFAS was detected in 90% of the brands tested. PFAS was also detected in 80% of brands of bamboo straws, 75% of plastic straw brands and 40% of glass straw brands. They were not detected in any of the five types of steel straws tested.

"The presence of PFAS in paper and bamboo straws shows they are not necessarily biodegradable," says Dr. Groffen. "We did not detect any PFAS in stainless steel straws, so I would advise consumers to use this type of straw—or just avoid using straws."

The PFAS concentrations (浓度) were low and, considering that most people only use straws occasionally, pose a limited risk to human health. However, PFAS can remain in the body for many years and concentrations can build up over time. "Small amounts of PFAS, while not harmful in themselves, can add to the chemical load already present in the body," Dr. Groffen concludes.

15、European rabbits might not be much to look at. They have a grayish-brown coat, small ears, and short legs. But these animals are not as ordinary as they seem. European rabbits live in grass habitats. They are somewhat picky eaters. They dig and disturb the ground while they look for food. "Their activities can create areas of bare soil which plants require," rabbit expert Diana Bell says.

Rabbits also contribute nutrients to the soil after they leave their waste there. Researchers have found that this activity benefits lowland grassland habitats, which can help maintain beneficial conditions for many plants, insects, and bird species. Without the help of rabbits, many of these species would have to leave the area or might even die out.

But due to threats such as disease, habitat loss, and hunting, the animals are classified as endangered in their native region, the Iberian Peninsula. One disease called myxomatosis (兔瘟) is an insect-spread virus from South America that was on purpose introduced by a farmer in the mid-1950s to control the rabbit population. About 90% of European rabbits died during early outbreaks and the disease continues to affect rabbit populations on the Iberian Peninsula.

To help rabbit populations recover, Bell has suggestions in the habitat recovery project. She is encouraging people to do their part to help protect the rabbits. For instance, people can just create piles of branches and make sloping mounds (斜堆) of soil in their spare time and then the rabbits can find cover. Actions like these won't take people much energy or time, and over the past three years, researchers have found they are working. "Our work resulted in evidence of rabbit activity in significantly higher numbers," Bell says.

Environmentalists have used other methods to help protect decreasing rabbit populations such as creating wildlife corridors, which are unbroken animal habitats that function like animal high-ways. "Efforts to reintroduce them on the Iberian Peninsula have been largely unsuccessful but we've managed to do this in the U. K." Bell says.

16、The sun is about to set when we reach our destination, the home of a nomadic (游牧的) herder (牧民) family. My host, Batbayer, has a cheerful face, with deep wrinkles and a color from long hours working outdoors, giving him the look of a sailor from an Ernest Hemingway novel. We have pre-arranged our visit but travelers in Mongolia can drive up to pretty much any ger and feel welcomed to stay. You don't knock on the door: when you approach a nomadic family, a customary greeting is to say a kindly "Hold your dog.", even if you don't see a dog.

We feast at the family home on one of the country's most distinct and tasty dishes: khorkhog, or mutton cooked using hot rocks. This comes served with onions, a variety of berries, and milk-besides more plates of meat, all from the family's own livestock (家畜).

Mongolia is home to one of the world's few remaining truly nomadic cultures. About a fifth of the population are herders, and nomadism is complexly woven into the country's spirit. But modern life is catching up with the people on the grassland at rapid speed. This is in large part what my book is about: an outsider's exploration of a society undergoing modernization while trying to hold fast to its deeply rooted traditional values.

Many of the livestock here, especially the more valuable breeds such as horses, camels and cattle, are implanted with microchips that can be monitored via satellite-based services. "I would like to use the Internet more because it's fun and useful; but the animals like it here. This is a good place for them," Batbayer says when I ask if better Internet connectivity might influence where to move his livestock next. "I would never choose Facebook over the well-being of the animals."
