读书是老年人闲暇生活中不可缺少的一部分。科学研究证明:人脑约有120-140亿个神经细胞,即使一个人活到100岁,也只不过损失10亿左右,还剩下100多亿个细胞可供使用。同时,科学家还发现正常老人的脑细胞树突数量、长度及分枝数量,不但不萎缩、变短、减少,反而有所增加。这说明老年人的大脑潜力仍很大,有读书能力,能读书。 Reading is an indispensable part of the elderly’s leisure life. Scientific research shows that there are 120-140 billion nerve cells in the human brain. Even if one lives to 100 years old, it only loses about 1 billion, leaving over 10 billion cells left for use. At the same time, scientists also found that normal elderly brain cell dendrites number, length and number of branches, not only does not shrink, shorten, reduce, but increased. This shows that the brain potential of the elderly is still great, have the ability to read books, able to study.
