A study fllwing nearly 30,000 lder adults fr mre than 10 years has fund six key healthy lifestyle factrs can significantly reduce memry lss and thse adults engaging in between fur and six f the healthy lifestyle behavirs culd dramatically reduce their risks f develping dementia（痴呆）, even when carrying genes that increase their risks f Alzheimer’s disease.
“Six healthy lifestyle aspects were assessed: a healthy diet, regular physical exercise, active scial cntact, active cgnitive（认知的）activity, never smking, and never drinking alchl,” the researchers explained in the new study. Participants were classified（分类）int the favrable grup if they had fur t six healthy lifestyle factrs, int the average grup fr tw t three factrs, and int the unfavrable grup fr zer t ne factr.

T prduce the classic clthing, blue jeans, prducers rely n indig dye（靛蓝染料）, the nly mlecule knwn t prvide jeans’ unique, belved clr. While indig itself naturally cmes frm a plant, grwing demand fr blue jeans thrughut the 20th century gave rise t synthetic（合成的）indig, which is nw mre cmmnly used.
Indig is the dye that makes jeans blue, but it desn’t mix with water. T dye clthes, usually, chemicals are needed t make the clr stick t the clth. But in Denmark, scientists have created a new way t dye clthes using an enzyme（酶）, which is a kind f prtein that can cause chemical reactins, instead f harmful chemicals. This new methd is better fr the envirnment and desn’t use pisnus stuff.
The chemical prcess fr dyeing blue jeans has persisted fr the last century. Wrkers are expsed t the pisnus chemicals, which als pllute the envirnment near factries. Waste water frm thse factries ften ends up in waterways, decimating lcal ecsystems and even dyeing rivers blue.
Ditte Hededam Welner, the study’s lead researcher, says their new enzyme wrks really well and is strng enugh fr making lts f jeans withut breaking dwn. This enzyme makes dyeing with indican, which is like indig, much less harmful t the planet—abut 92% better than the ld way.
Hwever, the new methd desn’t fix all the envirnmental prblems f making jeans. Making a single pair f jeans uses a lt f water—enugh t fill many bathtubs—frm grwing the cttn t putting the final tuches n the jeans.
Even thugh the new dyeing prcess is better fr the envirnment, it’s nt always easy r cheap t change t it. Welner’s team isn’t sure if jeans cmpanies will find it easy r affrdable t switch t this methd. It csts a little bit mre—just seven cents extra per pair f jeans—t use the enzyme fr dyeing. But Welner believes it’s wrth it because it’s much better fr the envirnment.
32. Why was synthetic indig created in the 20th century?
A. It made jeans’ clr unique.
B. It was easy t dye clth with it.
C. Peple liked jeans made frm it.
D. Peple were in greater need f jeans.
33. What des the underlined wrd “decimating” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Trubling.B. Entering.C. Destrying.D. Defeating.
34. Which is an advantage f the new methd?
A. The clur is mre beautiful than the synthetic indig.
B. The market can keep stable gds supplies.
C. Enzyme facilitates the advance f science.
D. The dye is mre envirnmentally friendly.
35. What makes Welner wrried abut the new methd?
A. Prductin csts.B. Envirnmental benefits.
C. Water cnsumptin.D. Labrer shrtage.
