Title: Even moderate drinking can damage the brain, claim researchers

Source: The Guardian 2017-06-07

饮酒伤身想必已是不争的事实。但先前曾有医学家认为适度的酒精摄取可以保护大脑，让人记忆模糊、老年痴呆的仅仅是过度饮酒。但新的研究全盘否定了喝酒的任何益处(相信大家都在不同场合或多或少听别人说过喝点酒有益健康之流的伪科学)。牛津大学和英国伦敦大学学院从1985年开始跟踪550名男女，时间长达30年。受访者最后的磁共振扫描显示，无论性别、年龄和社会地位如何，饮酒者通常海马体萎缩且大脑白质结构不佳。不饮酒的受访者中35%海马体萎缩，每周饮用14到21个单位的受访者中比例达到65%，而那些饮酒量高达30个单位的则有77%。

今天的句子：

None of the participants were deemed to have an alcohol dependence, but levels of drinking varied. After excluding 23 participants due to gaps in data or other issues, the team looked at participants’ alcohol intake as well as their performance on various cognitive tasks, as measured at six points over the 30 year period.

词汇突破：

1.participant参加者

2.deem视作

3.dependence依赖

4.exclude除去

5.intake摄取(量)

6.performance表现

7.cognitive认知的

8.measure估量

第一句话结构单纯，由两个并列分句构成：

none of the participants were deemed to have an alcohol dependence

but levels of drinking varied

第二句话

确定主干：

the team looked at participants’ alcohol intake as well as their performance on various cognitive tasks

切分成分：

1.After excluding 23 participants due to gaps in data or other issues状语从句

2.as measured at six points over the 30 year period

参考译文：参与研究的人均没有酒精依赖，但饮酒量各有不同。出于数据空白等原因，研究小组排除了23位参与者，然后在30年中共6次对其他人的饮酒量和认知表现进行评估。

明天的题目：

I have discovered, as perhaps Kelsey will after her much-publicized resignation from the editorship of She after a build-up of stress, that abandoning the doctrine of “juggling your life,” and making the alternative move into “downshifting” brings with it far greater rewards than financial success and social status. Nothing could persuade me to return to the kind of life Kelsey used to advocate and I once enjoyed: 12-hour working days, pressured deadlines, the fearful strain of office politics and the limitations of being a parent on “quality time”.

1.“Juggling one’s life” probably means living a life characterized by ________.

[A] non-materialistic lifestyle

[B] a bit of everything

[C] extreme stress

[D] anti-consumerism

明天的句子：

The ability to distinguish between fact and opinion, and to constantly question what we call knowledge, is vital to human progress, and something we cannot afford to let slip.
