研究指出忙碌的人拥有更敏锐的思维以及更好的记忆力。

 

 

Scientists say that packing more into the day increases the opportunity to learn new things, stimulating and challenging the brain.

科学家表示一天中有许多事情要做可以增加学习新事物的机会，而且可以刺激并鞭策大脑。

 

 

Some 330 healthy men and women in their 50s, 60s, 70s and 80s were quizzed about their daily schedules and put through a battery of mental tests.

330名50、60、70或80多岁的健康男人和女人被问及他们的日常安排，并完成了一连串的智力测试。

 

 

The results showed that no matter how old they were or how well educated, a busy lifestyle was linked to a healthy brain.

研究结果指出，无论他们的年纪有多大，或是他们受过多好的教育，忙碌的生活方式与健康的大脑都是有关联的。

 

Busy people processed information more quickly and had superior memory, reasoning and vocabulary to those who took it easy.

与那些轻松的人相比，忙碌的人能更迅速地处理信息，并且有更优秀的记忆力、推理能力以及词汇量。

 

Dr Sarah Festini, of the University of Texas at Dallas, said: ‘that people who report greater levels of daily busyness tend to have better cognition, especially with regard to memory for recently learned information.’

达拉斯德克萨斯大学的莎拉·菲丝汀尼博士指出：“那些日常中更忙碌的人通常有更好的认知能力，尤其是对最近了解到的信息的记忆。”
