In the 21st century, digital technlgy, especially generative AI, has reshaped ur daily lives greatly. The shift frm traditinal t digital technlgy started in the 1960s, and peple wh lived thrugh this histrical change are nw entering their 80s. A new study explres what we can learn frm them abut technlgy’s impact n the aging brain.
German scientist Manfred Spitzer put frward the “digital dementia” thery in 2012, claiming that ver-reliance n digital devices weakens cgnitive abilities. This is linked t passive screen time, handing ver thinking tasks t technlgy (like nt memrizing phne numbers), and increased daily distractin. Hwever, a meta-analysis published in Nature Human Behaviur challenges this idea.
Led by neurpsychlgists Jared Benge and Michael Scullin, the study cmbined data frm 57 research prjects invlving ver 411,000 adults aged 50 and abve. It fund n evidence fr “digital dementia” — instead, mre frequent technlgy use was linked t a 58% lwer risk f cgnitive decline. This significant benefit remained even after accunting fr key factrs like sciecnmic status and health cnditins.
Ntably, technlgy’s prtective effect is similar t r strnger than physical activity (35% risk reductin) and healthy bld pressure (13% risk reductin). Thugh mre research is needed — especially n lw- and middle-incme cuntry grups — the findings suggest technlgy use may actively prmte the brain, like reading r learning a new language. Adapting t updates r devices culd build “technlgical reserve” and help lder adults stay cnnected and independent.
In tday’s fast-paced digital wrld, aviding technlgy is impractical. Instead f wrrying abut its harms, we shuld fcus n hw t use it wisely. While AI’s lng-term impact n aging brains is unknwn, ur ability t adapt t past technlgical changes ffers reasn fr ptimism.
8. Why des the authr mentin “digital dementia” thery in paragraph 2?
A. T clarify a cncept.B. T challenge a thery.
C. T lead in a new study.D. T supprt an pinin.
9. What is the main finding f the study led by Jared Benge and Michael Scullin?
A. Technlgy veruse causes brain disrders.
B. Technlgy use lwers cgnitive decline risk.
C. Exercise prves mre effective than technlgy.
D. Mental abilities are impacted by health cnditins.
10. What is the authr’s attitude twards the lng-term impact f AI n aging brains?
A. Psitive.B. Indifferent.C. Unclear.D. Disapprving.
11. What can be inferred frm the text?
A. AI updates can bst the functin f aging brains.
B. Technlgy use matters mre than physical activities.
C. Benge and Scullin’s study ignred age differences in the elderly.
D. Current research may need mre data frm lw-incme grups.

On winter evenings in Eurpe and Nrth America, thusands f starlings (椋鸟) gather an hur befre sunset t perfrm dazzling air shws. They mve as ne — surging, waving, and wheeling like a single shape-shifting creature — befre settling in nighttime habitats. Hw these birds cperate s tightly has puzzled researchers fr ver a century.
In 1931, bilgist Edmund Selus suggested the “murmuratin” (群飞) came frm telepathy (心灵感应), arguing that the birds “think cllectively, and all act at the same time”. Als, cmputer mdels shwed their simple rules culd create synchrnized grup mvement. A breakthrugh came in 2005, when physicists Andrea Cavagna and Irene Giardina’s team spent three years phtgraphing Rme’s murmuratins with cameras, recnstructing 3D psitins f ver 4,000 birds.
Their finding is shcking — each starling nly interacts with seven nearby neighbrs. Fllwing three simple rules — fly in the same directin, stay clse, but nt t clse — these interactins create the cmplex display. Dutch researcher Charltte Hemelrijk cnfirmed this with a cmputer mdel that matched the Rme data, prving n leader r telepathy is needed. Surprisingly, the flck has “scale-free crrelatins” (无标度相关性): a bird’s turn spreads acrss the grup, ttally crrect, like a perfect game f telephne. Each starling’s senses effectively cver the whle flck, letting it respnd t distant events.
Tday, researchers use tls like a bird-shaped rbt t study avidant strategies, and cameras t track flcks. But starling numbers are drpping — British ppulatins halved in 60 years. Eurpe and Nrth America have lst billins f birds due t habitat lss and human activity.
Starlings have taught us that Earth’s mst beautiful phenmena, like murmuratins, need species t thrive in large numbers. As phtgrapher Søren Slkær says, witnessing a murmuratin reflects ur deep bnd with nature.
12. Hw des the authr intrduce the tpic?
A. By describing a scene.B. By giving an example.
C. By prviding statistics.D. By making a cmparisn.
13. What des the underlined wrd “synchrnized” in paragraph 2 mean?
A. Rapid.B. Silent.C. Unifrm.D. Separate.
14. Hw d starlings achieve their grup mvement accrding t paragraph 3?
A. They use telepathy t “think cllectively”.
B. They fllw instructins frm a single leader.
C. Each bird interacts with nly seven neighbrs.
D. They receive signals frm distant birds directly.
15. What is the main idea f the text?
A. The rejectin f telepathy thery.
B. The sharp fall f starling ppulatins in certain areas.
C. The evlutin f starlings’ flying.
D. The mystery and prtectin f starling murmuratins.
