New research implies that even a small amunt f exercise might d help t lder peple with light memry prblems. Patients have lng been advised t d physical activity t help keep their brains healthy. But the U. S. gvernment-supprted research marks the lngest study f whether exercise makes any difference nce memry starts t decline.
Researchers fund arund 300 inactive lder adults with memry changes called mild cgnitive impairment（MCI）（轻度认知障碍）.

By cmparisn, similar MCI patients in anther lng-term study f brain health—but withut exercise experienced cgnitive decline ver a year.
Maria Carrill is the Alzheimer's Assciatin chief scientific fficer. She said earlier research has fund regular physical activity f any kind may reduce damaging inflammatin and increase bld flw t the brain. She added that the new study is especially interesting because the COVID-19 pandemic began halfway thrugh the study. That meant the study participants became scially islated.

The drug is suppsed t be the first t slw the prgressin f dementia but it is nt yet clear if it really helps patients. Researchers last mnth reprted anther drug that wrks similarly failed in an imprtant study. There is grwing urgency t find whether exercise might ffer at least sme prtectin.

A lt f manufactured glass tday made frm sand and sdium carbnate（碳酸钠） can be reused r melted dwn and recycled int new items, but it desn't break dwn in the envirnment and will sit in landfills fr thusands f years. A team f Chinese scientists aimed t deal with this envirnmental cncern by develping an ec-cnscius alternative.
In a study published recently in the jurnal Science Advances, a team at the Chinese Academy f Sciences’ Institute f Prcess Engineering describe hw they engineered bidegradable glass made frm amin acids（氨基酸）. That glass wuld have a smaller impact n the envirnment and can break dwn in a few weeks r in several mnths.
In a test, glass beads（玻璃珠） made ut f amin acids were placed under the skin f mice, and the breakdwn f the bead and the skin healing prcess were bserved fr 30days. A diagram frm the study shws hw the mice's bdies brke dwn the beads. In that mnth, the glass implant degraded beneath the skin, the wund site healed, and fur grew back. “Thrughut the experimental perid, n mice exhibited any pain-related behavir that may have been caused by the glass implantatin, and nne f them experienced bvius weight lss,” the researchers wrte in their paper.
Althugh amin acids d degrade ver time in the envirnment, this bidegradable glass is nt as durable as traditinal glass, because amin acids can break dwn quickly in heat. In rder t vercme this hurdle, the researchers chemically mdified the amin acids using the heating-cling prcedure applied in glass manufacturing. This is when materials fr the glass are heated t becme sft and then rapidly cled s as t make the glass tugher.
“It’s imprtant t pint ut that this bidegradable glass is currently in the lab stage, and far frm large-scale cmmercializatin,” emphasized Yan Xuehai, a prfessr invlved in the study, in a press release.
32. What is an advantage f the new glass?
A. It takes less time t break dwn. B. It can be recycled at a lw cst.
C. It is prduced withut pllutin. D. It has a wide range f applicatins.
33. Why did researchers implant glass beads inside mice?
A. T assess whether the glass is bilgically harmless.
B. T investigate why amin acids are medically useful.
C. T explre hw lng it takes fr the glass t degrade.
D. T bserve if the glass can be melt dwn in mice's stmach.
34. What des the underlined wrd “hurdle” in paragraph 4 refer t?
A. The challenge f imprving the heating-cling prcedure.
B. Envirnmental prblems caused by traditinal glass.
C. The difficulty f selecting materials fr the glass.
D. The instability f amin acids.
35. Which f the fllwing can be the best title fr the text?
A. Amin Acids Make Glass Tugher
B. Amin Acids Cast New Light n Science
C. Bidegradable Glass: Clser t Sustainability
D. Bidegradable Glass: Ready t Hit the Market
