Some primary schoolchildren have been raised in homes with more green space around． They are likely to come with larger volumes of white and grey matter in certain areas of the brain． These differences are associated（关联） with beneficial effects on cognitive function （认知功能）． This is the main conclusion of a study led by the Barcelona Institute for Global Health．
The study was performed among 253 schoolchildren in Spain．Lifelong exposure（接触） to green space in the living places was recorded﹣using the information on the children's addresses from birth up through to the time of the study． Brain structure was studied using 3D magnetic resonance imaging （MRI）． Working memory and inattentiveness（注意力不集中）were graded with computers．
"This is the first study that shows the association between long﹣term exposure to green space and brain structure．" Says Dr． Payam Dadvand， the leading researcher of the study． "Our findings suggest that exposure to green space early in life could result in beneficial structural changes in the brain．"
The findings show that long﹣term exposure to greenness is positively associated with white and grey matter volumes in several parts of the brain． Some of them are related to higher scores on cognitive tests． Moreover， larger volumes of white and grey matter in those parts might lead to better working memory and less inattentiveness．
Exposure to nature has been thought to be necessary for brain development in children． Another study of 2，593 children shows that children in school with more green space have a greater increase in working memory and a greater decrease in inattentiveness．
Humans are believed to be tied to nature． Playing in greener areas offers children opportunities to search and learn． Accordingly， green space is thought to promptimportant exercises in discovery， creativity and risk taking． These exercises in turn positively influence brain development．
Dr． Dadvand's study suggests how such structural changes could bring about the beneficial effects of green spaces on cognitive development． It also adds to the proof that suggests the lasting effects of early life exposure to greenness on our health and the benefits of increasing greenness in cities．
Further studies are needed to prove the findings in other populations， settings and climates． And researchers need to examine differences according to the nature and quality of green space．

Texting while driving is against the law in 47 states． But what about texting while walking？ A 2018 study reported that more than 2， 500 people in the US ended up in hospitals resulting from using a mobile device（设备） while walking．
Hawaii passed a law making it illegal（违法的） to text or look down at a mobile device while crossing the street． It is the first state with a law like this． Do people think more places should accept such a law？ The LA Times did a survey． Here are some replies they received．
Rena Jose， 2， New York Which is more important， texting or safety？ If you are looking at your phone while walking， you might not see a car come or traffic lights turn red． It can be very dangerous． For example， in Japan， one person fell into a lake and another got her leg stuck in a hole， because both had their mind on their phone． We should make texting while crossing the street illegal in more cities． |
Andy Selvam， 55， California People do many things that cause injury to themselves but are not illegal， such as climbing mountains， driving cars， swimming and so on． People might get hurt from texting and walking if they're not paying attention． But I still think they should have a choice． |
Bob Madigan， 45， Oregon As humans， we can make our own decisions． I'm not saying it's safe， but we don't need the government to babysit us． If we want to learn to make smart decisions， the government needs to stop telling us what to do． After all， this is a free country． |
Andrew Black， 34， Alaska This law is a good idea﹣compare this protection with seat belts． If this law is passed all over US， people will be worried． But is there really a way to please everyone？ This would not be for fun． It would be safe and good for all Americans． |

"Made in China" is having its moment now﹣and it's a fashionable one．
The story of Chinese fashion began in 2011 when Feiyue and Huili， both Chinese sports shoe brands（品牌）， suddenly got international attention． Their products were seen all over the world． Chinese sportswear brand Li Ning was at the New York Fashion Week in September， 2018． They showed their new designs﹣sweaters and jackets with Chinese characters．
Shaun Rein， managing director of China Market Research Group， said that the latest Chinese brands no longer catch customers' eye by low price． He told CNN， " They are sure that they can go head to head with foreign brands．

On March 10，2019，eight﹣year﹣old Tani won the New York Chess Championship （纽约象棋冠军赛）of his age group． But the boy， who was homeless at the time， began learning the game less than a year ago．
Tani and his family arrived in New York City from Africa in 2017． A church helped him enter the primary school， P．S.116． Here the gifted boy was first introduced to chess by a part﹣time teacher Makofsky， owner of a chess club． Interested in the game， the seven﹣year﹣old asked his mother to allow him to join the club． Not able to afford the chess classes， she emailed Makofsky． To her surprise and joy， Makofsky agreed that Tani could learn it for free．
Though the chess club helps， it's largely believed that Tani's success lies in his hard work． The boy practices the game for many hours a day on the floor with his board． Every Saturday， Tani goes to a free 3﹣hour class to improve his game skills．

With her eyes feeling increasingly tired and her vision blurry（视力模糊的），l6﹣year﹣old Tian Ting went to the hospital with her parents in January.She was shocked when she found out that her eyesight dropped from 5.0 to 4.6 in only a term. "A few of my friends have had the same experience lately，" Tian said.
In fact，poor eyesight among Chinese primary and high school students rose from 59.2 percent to 70.6 percent in the first six months of 2020，according to the Ministry of Education.
To protect students' eyesight，the Chinese government has worked out new requirements （要求） for school supplies （供应品） and equipments that will take effect （生效） on March 1，2022.For example，according to the requirements，the size of text in students' textbooks should be no smaller than nine﹣point.Teachers should also try not to use projectors （投影仪） or other multimedia equipments （多媒体设备） that are too bright，Beijing Daily reported.There are also requirements for desks and classroom lights.For example，these lights should give off （散发） as little blue light as possible.
Blue light is bad for our eyes，as it can kill the photoreceptor cells （光感器细胞） we need for vision，according to Harvard Medical School.Many of the electronic devices we use every day，like our phones and computer screens，give off blue light.
Chinese government has also taken other steps to protect students' eyesight in China.In May 2020，the National Health Commission urged schools to make sure that students have at least two hours of outdoor activity a day.

Wild beavers （河狸） are back! Experts say that the wild beaver families are doing well． The beavers are even boosting wildlife and the environment!
Over ten years ago， a family of beavers turned up in a part of the river Otter， in Devon．No one knew exactly where they came from． It was a big surprise一wild beavers hadn't lived in England for around 400 years!
In 2015， the government allowed the beavers to stay there as part of a trial （试验）． They wanted to see if these animals could be reintroduced to the wild．The trial ends in February．Some scientists from the University of Exeter already say the beavers help the wildlife in the area． One scientist called it" an amazing story"．
A lot of this is because of dams． Beavers build dams along the river． This creates deep pools in the riverbed and slows the water down． Scientists say this is perfect for many different types of plants and animals! Many plants are growing near the beavers．Different types of animals are also becoming more and more in the river． Beavers also help make flooding less，scientists say．The beavers' dams slow down the speed of the river， especially after heavy rain．
There are， however， some problems． Beavers gnaw （咬，啃） on trees and this can harm them．Their dams can also sometimes create floods （洪水） on people's land．
Beavers aren't the only animals that are being reintroduced to the wild! In 2019， red squirrels were brought back to an area of the Scottish Highlands． Further away， the world's rarest （罕见的）duck， the Madagascar pochard， is making a comeback． It was set free into the wild on the African island in 2019 and is doing well．
