Declining mental function is often seen as a problem of old age, but certain aspects of brain function actually begin their decline in young adulthood, a new study suggests.
The study, which followed more than 2,000 healthy adults between the ages of 18 and 60, found that certain mental functions—including measures of abstract reasoning, mental speed and puzzle-solving—started to dull as early as age 27. Dips in memory, meanwhile, generally became apparent around age 37.
On the other hand, indicators of a person’s accumulated knowledge—like performance on tests of vocabulary and general knowledge—kept improving with age, according to the findings published in the journal Neurobiology of Aging. The results do not mean that young adults need to start worrying about their memories. Most people’s minds function at a high level even in their later years, according to researcher Timothy Salthouse.
“These patterns suggest that some types of mental flexibility decrease relatively early in adulthood, but that the amount of knowledge one has, and the effectiveness of integrating it with one’s abilities, may increase throughout all of adulthood if there are no diseases,” Salthouse said in a news release.
The study included healthy, educated adults who took standard tests of memory, reasoning and perception at the outset and at some point over the next seven years. The tests are designed to detect subtle (細微的) changes in mental function, and involve solving puzzles, recalling words and details from stories, and identifying patterns in collections of letters and symbols. In general, Salthouse and his colleagues found, certain aspects of cognition (認知能力) generally started to decline in the late 20s to 30s. The findings shed light on normal age-related changes in mental function, which could aid in understanding the process of dementia (癡呆), according to the researchers.

【題目】 “The price of books for our students is just getting higher and higher and,combined with the rising cost of tuition,it’s killing these students,”said Peter Jason,a college professor. “Remember,students are one of the poorest groups of people in America. Almost half of them have at least one part-time job. In fact,one of my students has three jobs. And she still manages to have high scores and go to school full-time. ”
Textbook prices are traditionally high. Adding to that problem, many college teachers change textbooks year after year; they either upgrade to a new edition or switch to an entirely different textbook. This further hurts students because if an instructor no longer uses a particular textbook,that book has no resale value.
Dr. Jason decided to make reading a little easier and a lot cheaper for his students by writing his own book on public speaking. “Many books have an increased price because of CD-ROMs,lots of color photographs and pictures. I talked to my students,and many of them,like me,prefer to keep things simple! So,a few years ago,I wrote my own textbook. Compared to most other public speaking books,mine is half the number of pages,and one-third the price. That is,$30 instead of $90. When I wrote a second edition last year,students only had to buy the 35 new pages, For only $7. 00,they had almost a new book. Now my loose-leaf textbook enjoys great popularity among the students. Maybe in the future more writers and publishers will try it. ”
【1】What did Dr. Jason say about students at college?
A.They are short of money.
B.They need better textbooks.
C.They should do part-time jobs.
D.They are trying to get high scores.
【2】What did Dr. Jason decide to do to help the students?
A.To choose cheaper textbooks.
B.To write a textbook himself.
C.To speak to his students.
D.To use old textbooks.
【3】How much does a public speaking textbook usually cost?
A.About 7 dollars.B.About 30 dollars.
C.About 37 dollars.D.About 90 dollars.
【4】Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?
A.Dr. Jason’s textbook has CD-ROMs and nice pictures.
B.More writers and publishers will write simpler textbooks.
C.Dr. Jason teaches public speaking at a college.
D.Dr. Jason’s textbook is not well received.
