A Bad Idea
Think you can walk,drive,take phone calls,e-mail and listen to music at the same time? Well,New York's new law says you can't.(46)The law went into force last month,following research and a shocking number of accidents that involved people using electronic gadgets (小巧机械)when crossing the street.
Who's to blame?(47)“We are under the impression that our brain can do more than it often can,” says Rene Marois,a neuroscientist (神经科学家)in Tennessee. “But a core limitation is the inability to concentrate on two things at once.”
The young people are often considered the great multi-taskers.(48),A group of 18- to 21-year-olds and a group of 35- to 39-year-olds were given 90 seconds to translate images into numbers,using a simple code.(49)But when both groups were interrupted by a phone call or an instant message,the older group matched the younger group in speed and accuracy.

www.lindalemus.com the productivity lost by multitaskers. But it is probably a lot. Jonathan Spira,chief analyst at Basex,a business-research firm,estimates the cost of interruptions to the American economy at nearly $650 billion a year.(50)The surveys conclude that 28 percent of the workers' time was spent on interruptions and recovery time before they returned to their main tasks.
A Talking on a cell phone while driving brings you joy anyway
B The estimate is based on surveys with office workers
C The younger group did 10 percent better when not interrupted
D However,an Oxford University research suggests this perception is open to question.
E Scientists say that our multitasking (多任务处理)abilities are limited
F And you'll be fined $100 if you do so on a New York City street.

Exercise Cuts Cancer Deaths in Men
Men who exercise often are less likely to die from cancer than those who(51),new research published in the British Journal of Cancer revealed yesterday.
A team of scientists from the Karolinska Institute in Sweden looked(52)the effect of physical activity and cancer risk in 40,708 men aged(53) 45 and 79.
The seven-year study found that men(54)walked or cycled for at least 30 minutes a day had a 34 per cent lower(55)of dying from cancer than the men who did less exercise or nothing at all.(56)the period studied,3,714 men developed cancer and 1,153 died from the disease. The researchers suggest that half an hour's walking(57) cycling a day increased survival among these men by 33 per cent.
The researchers surveyed men from two counties in central Sweden about their lifestyle and the amount of(58)activity they were usually doing. They then scored these responses and compared the results with data on cancer diagnosis and
death officially recorded in a central cancer registry (登记簿)over a seven-year (59). Lead author,Professor Alicja Wolk,
www.med126.comsaid:“These results clearly show for the first time the effect that very simple and basic daily(60)such as walking or cycling has in reducing cancer death risk in middle-aged and elderly (61)。”
Dr Lesley Walker,director of cancer information at Cancer Research UK,said:“This study gives us a clear indication that men who exercise are less(62) to die from cancer,and that they are more likely to(63)the disease if they get it. It's not entirely clear from this study what role exercise plays in preventing(64)in men,but we do know that a healthy lifestyle can prevent up to half of all cancers - and (65)exercise forms a key part of this.”
