Recently, researchers from University of California, Irvine, have provided the first evidence that short-term stress las

20、ting for a few hours has the same effect.“Stress does exist in our lives and cannot be avoided,” said Dr. Baram, leader of the UC Irvine School. “Our findings can play an important role in the present development of medicine that might prevent these undesirable effects and offer understanding of why

21、 some people are forgetful or have difficulty keeping the memories.”In their study, Baram and her UC Irvine colleagues identified a novel process in which stress caused these effects. They found that, severe stress activated (激活) Corticotropin Releasing Hormones (CRH), which prevented the brain from

22、 keeping memory.Memory takes place at synapses, where there are connections through which brain cells communicate. These synapses lie on dendritic spines (神经元). In rat and mouse studies, Barams group saw that the release (释放) of CRH in the brains primary memory center led to the rapid breakup of the

23、se dendritic spines, which in turn limited the ability of synapses to collect and store memories.In addition, the researchers reproduced the effects of stress on dendritic spines by keeping low levels of CRH, and watching how the spines ruptured over minutes. “Fortunately, once we removed the CRH, t

24、he spines seemed to grow back again, Baram said. “And this study can play a role in the creation of treatments to address stress-related memory loss.”25.

Thanks to the rapid advances in technology, new smart hardware is reshaping how pupils will write and interact with teachers.Equipped with a built-in mini

27、 camera, T-One, an Al-enabled smart pen can click up to 240 images (图像) per second, and store content handwritten on 400 A4-sized pages. Meanwhile, it can immediately digitalize students, handwritten notes, automatically evaluating their answers and potentially reducing the workload of teachers. Whe

28、n students write with the smart pen on a piece of specially produced paper, which is printed with an invisible dot code pattern, the high-speed camera at the front of the pen can record the movement of the penpoint. And the pressure sensor will store all the information such as writing time and spee

29、d, and page number. Information thus collected is sent via Bluetooth to computers or other hand-held devices (设备）, which are equipped with Master Learners “super teacher” system. The system can automatically review students homework on behalf of teachers.The system is said to be able to evaluate ans

30、wers. Professor James, founder of Master Learner, said, “Handwriting has always played an irreplaceable role as a medium of interaction between teachers and students. Unlike typing on the keyboard, writing on paper is still the most preferred way in Chinese classrooms and examinations.”According to

31、him, the smart pen is meant to digitalize the education process, and improve efficiency (效率) while protecting the traditional writing habits. “We are starting to mass-produce the smart pen. In the future, their appearance, weight and feel will be similar to that of conventional pens,” James said hopefully, without mentioning its price.28. What can we learn about T-One?A.
