英国利物浦大学对30位老年人研究发现,研读文学巨著能够预防阿尔茨海默症(老年痴呆症)。当他们阅读辞藻较深奥的大师级作品时,比如莎士比亚的作品,脑部的活动就比较活跃。而阅读一般的文章时,脑部的活动就没什么特别的变化。研究人员说,之所以出现这种情况,是因为莎翁等文豪的作品,句子结构特别,阅读时脑部必须格外努力。 A study of 30 elderly people at the University of Liverpool in the United Kingdom found that studying a literary masterpiece can prevent Alzheimer’s disease (Alzheimer’s disease). When they read masters of more profound rhetorical works, such as Shakespeare’s works, brain activity is more active. When reading a general essay, there is no particular change in the activity of the brain. The researchers said that the reason for this situation is because Shakespeare and other literary works, the sentence structure is special, the brain must read extra hard work.
