Millins f turists travel t parks each year t enjy the bright clrs f fall—but eclgists say the familiar reds, ranges and yellws f fall fliage (叶子) are cming later in the seasn. “In New England, generally the fall fliage tends t peak in mid-Octber,” said Richard Primack, a prfessr f plant eclgy. “But because f a warming climate, the peak f fall fliage is tending t mve frm kind f early t middle Octber t kind f middle t late Octber.”
Predicting precisely when the leaves will turn frm green t red, range and yellw in fall depends in part n the gegraphic area, the species and the amunt f rainfall, and climate change can largely determine the timing. And leaves f trees with harmful insects will drp sner, accrding t Christy Rllinsn, a frest eclgist. “Bright clrs are assciated with a healthy tree, because sme clrs take energy fr the tree t prduce.”
Peak clr used t last fr abut tw weeks, but fr certain species, that perid might be becming mre cndensed as higher temperatures cntinue late int the fall because the rate at which days get shrter thrughut the seasn remains the same. S future generatins might just have t be ready t travel at a mment’s ntice t catch a peak perid in parts f the cuntry.
Such changes culd affect the turism industry surrunding leaf peeping (看), accrding t Sarah Blunt, a researcher at the Natinal Envirnmental Educatin Fundatin. She underscred hw imprtant it is t try t imprve peak timing predictins. “There’s s much mney attached t it,” she said. “Peple want t buy a plane ticket t g smewhere and dn’t want t find that it turns ut that it’s t late and all the leaves are gne r it’s t early, s there is a lt f fcus n trying t imprve the infrmatin that we have abut that. ”

Cnsumptin f ultra-prcessed fds (UPFs) has increased ver the past 20 years. UPFs cntain few r n whle fds, are industrially prduced, are ready-t-eat r ready-t-heat, and include additives. The ultra-prcessing f fd lessens its nutritinal value. It has been knwn that higher UPF cnsumptin is assciated with verweight and heart disease. Nw, research has been extended t examine its impact n mental health.
In a new study, ver 72,000 participants wh were at least 55 years ld and didn’t have dementia (痴呆) at the start f the study were fllwed fr an average f 10 years, during which they filled ut questinnaires regarding their diet. By the end f the study, 518 peple were diagnsed (诊断) with dementia. After adjusting fr ther factrs that culd affect risk f dementia such as age, gender, and heart disease, researchers fund every 10 percent increase in daily intake f UPFs was assciated with a 25percent higher risk f dementia. They als fund replacing 10 percent f UPFs with unprcessed r minimally prcessed fds was assciated with a 19 percent lwer risk f dementia.
In anther study, researchers fund individuals wh cnsumed the mst UPFs had statistically significant increases in the symptms (症状) f mild depressin, “mentally unhealthy days”, and “anxius days”. Eric Hecht, Funder and Executive Directr f the Institute f Etilgical Research, said, “Mre than 70 percent f packaged fds in the US are classified as UPFs and represent abut 60 percent f all calries cnsumed by Americans. Given the degree f expsure t and effects f UPF cnsumptin, this study has great significance in clinical practice and public health. It might help imprve future develpment f dietary guidelines.”
Facing such alarming data, maybe it’s time fr Americans t recnsider their fd ptins. Researchers recmmend taxes n UPFs and carrying ut plicies t reduce the cnsumptin. They als supprt prgrams and plicies t increase the availability and affrdability f whle fds, especially amng disadvantaged ppulatins.
12．What d we knw abut UPFs?
A．They have n nutritinal value.B．They are ready-made and instant fds.
C．They are cheap and mass-prduced.D．They serve as additins t ur daily diets.
13．What’s Eric Hecht’s attitude tward the new study?
A．Psitive.B．Dubtful.C．Mixed.D．Cnservative.
14．What d researchers suggest ding?
A．Cllecting higher taxes n UPFs.B．Decreasing UPFs’ share in diet.
C．Fcusing n the nutrient cntent f fds.D．Increasing public awareness f whle fds.
15．Which can be a suitable title fr the text?
A．Public Health Respnse t UPFsB．Physical Disrders Linked t UPFs
C．Rising Cnsumptin f UPFs in the USD．Negative Effects f UPFs n Mental Health

Millins f turists travel t parks each year t enjy the bright clrs f fall—but eclgists say the familiar reds, ranges and yellws f fall fliage (叶子) are cming later in the seasn. “In New England, generally the fall fliage tends t peak in mid-Octber,” said Richard Primack, a prfessr f plant eclgy. “But because f a warming climate, the peak f fall fliage is tending t mve frm kind f early t middle Octber t kind f middle t late Octber.”
Predicting precisely when the leaves will turn frm green t red, range and yellw in fall depends in part n the gegraphic area, the species and the amunt f rainfall, and climate change can largely determine the timing. And leaves f trees with harmful insects will drp sner, accrding t Christy Rllinsn, a frest eclgist. “Bright clrs are assciated with a healthy tree, because sme clrs take energy fr the tree t prduce.”
Peak clr used t last fr abut tw weeks, but fr certain species, that perid might be becming mre cndensed as higher temperatures cntinue late int the fall because the rate at which days get shrter thrughut the seasn remains the same. S future generatins might just have t be ready t travel at a mment’s ntice t catch a peak perid in parts f the cuntry.

Cnsumptin f ultra-prcessed fds (UPFs) has increased ver the past 20 years. UPFs cntain few r n whle fds, are industrially prduced, are ready-t-eat r ready-t-heat, and include additives. The ultra-prcessing f fd lessens its nutritinal value. It has been knwn that higher UPF cnsumptin is assciated with verweight and heart disease. Nw, research has been extended t examine its impact n mental health.
In a new study, ver 72,000 participants wh were at least 55 years ld and didn’t have dementia (痴呆) at the start f the study were fllwed fr an average f 10 years, during which they filled ut questinnaires regarding their diet. By the end f the study, 518 peple were diagnsed (诊断) with dementia. After adjusting fr ther factrs that culd affect risk f dementia such as age, gender, and heart disease, researchers fund every 10 percent increase in daily intake f UPFs was assciated with a 25percent higher risk f dementia. They als fund replacing 10 percent f UPFs with unprcessed r minimally prcessed fds was assciated with a 19 percent lwer risk f dementia.
In anther study, researchers fund individuals wh cnsumed the mst UPFs had statistically significant increases in the symptms (症状) f mild depressin, “mentally unhealthy days”, and “anxius days”. Eric Hecht, Funder and Executive Directr f the Institute f Etilgical Research, said, “Mre than 70 percent f packaged fds in the US are classified as UPFs and represent abut 60 percent f all calries cnsumed by Americans. Given the degree f expsure t and effects f UPF cnsumptin, this study has great significance in clinical practice and public health. It might help imprve future develpment f dietary guidelines.”
Facing such alarming data, maybe it’s time fr Americans t recnsider their fd ptins. Researchers recmmend taxes n UPFs and carrying ut plicies t reduce the cnsumptin. They als supprt prgrams and plicies t increase the availability and affrdability f whle fds, especially amng disadvantaged ppulatins.
12．What d we knw abut UPFs?
A．They have n nutritinal value.B．They are ready-made and instant fds.

13．What’s Eric Hecht’s attitude tward the new study?
A．Psitive.B．Dubtful.C．Mixed.D．Cnservative.
14．What d researchers suggest ding?
A．Cllecting higher taxes n UPFs.B．Decreasing UPFs’ share in diet.
C．Fcusing n the nutrient cntent f fds.D．Increasing public awareness f whle fds.
15．Which can be a suitable title fr the text?
A．Public Health Respnse t UPFsB．Physical Disrders Linked t UPFs
