Hwever, nthing deters the sprts lver. “In this sprt, crashes are unavidable. I am ready fr whatever challenges cme my way n the ice,” she said.
Yu expects t see mre f her gender fllw in her ftsteps. “Wmen with disabilities all ver the wrld, I hpe they knw it's nt impssible, and I hpe they see this as encuragement,”she said.

Can exercise during childhd prtect yu against memry lss many years later? Exercise early in life seems t have lifelng benefits fr the brain, in rats at least.
“This is an animal study, but it shws that physical activity at a yung age is very imprtant — nt just fr physical develpment, but fr the whle lifelng track f cgnitive (认知的) develpment during ageing,” says Martin f the University f Trnt, Canada. “In humans, it may put ff the appearance f Alzheimer’s (阿兹海默症) symptms, pssibly t the pint f preventing them.”
Martin’s team divided 80 yung male rats int tw equal grups, and placed running wheels in the cages f ne grup fr a perid f six weeks. Arund fur mnths later — when the rats had reached middle age — the team taught all the rats t cnnect an electric shck with being in a specific bx. When placed in the bx, they frze with fear.
Tw weeks later, the team tested the rats in three situatins: exactly the same bx in the same rm, the same bx with the rm arranged differently, and a cmpletely different bx in a different rm.
The rats withut access t a running wheel when they were yung nw frze the same percentage f times in each f these situatins, suggesting they culdn’t remember which ne was dangerus. But thse that had been able t run in their yuth frze 40 t 50 percent less in bth changed bx settings.
“The results suggest the amunt f physical activity when we’re yung, at least fr rats, has influence n brain and cgnitive health — in the frm f better memries — when we’re lder,” says Arthur Kramer f Nrtheastern University in Bstn, wh has fund that, in humans, exercise imprves the grwth f new brain cells.
32. The study shws that______.
using the running wheels is f benefit t the rats’ grwth
physical activity is imprtant fr physical health
exercise when yung can prevent memry lss when lder in rats
physical activity can prevent human’s Alzheimer’s symptms

34. Hw are Paragraph 3 and 4 mainly develped?

35. What is the authr’s attitude twards the animal study?

Can exercise during childhd prtect yu against memry lss many years later? Exercise early in life seems t have lifelng benefits fr the brain, in rats at least.
“This is an animal study, but it shws that physical activity at a yung age is very imprtant — nt just fr physical develpment, but fr the whle lifelng track f cgnitive (认知的) develpment during ageing,” says Martin f the University f Trnt, Canada. “In humans, it may put ff the appearance f Alzheimer’s (阿兹海默症) symptms, pssibly t the pint f preventing them.”
Martin’s team divided 80 yung male rats int tw equal grups, and placed running wheels in the cages f ne grup fr a perid f six weeks. Arund fur mnths later — when the rats had reached middle age — the team taught all the rats t cnnect an electric shck with being in a specific bx. When placed in the bx, they frze with fear.
Tw weeks later, the team tested the rats in three situatins: exactly the same bx in the same rm, the same bx with the rm arranged differently, and a cmpletely different bx in a different rm.
The rats withut access t a running wheel when they were yung nw frze the same percentage f times in each f these situatins, suggesting they culdn’t remember which ne was dangerus. But thse that had been able t run in their yuth frze 40 t 50 percent less in bth changed bx settings.
“The results suggest the amunt f physical activity when we’re yung, at least fr rats, has influence n brain and cgnitive health — in the frm f better memries — when we’re lder,” says Arthur Kramer f Nrtheastern University in Bstn, wh has fund that, in humans, exercise imprves the grwth f new brain cells.
32. The study shws that______.
