Women who drank three or more cups of coffee a day were 30 percent less likely to have memory decline at age 65 than whose who drank one cup or less daily. And the benefit increased with age. Women over age 80 who drank three or more cups of coffee a day were about 70 percent less likely to have memory decline than those who drank one cup or less, the researchers said.
Caffeinated tea had the same effect in the women, the study found, although more was needed to get the same caffeine boost. "Count roughly two cups of tea for a cup of coffee," said study leader Karen Ritchie of INSERM, the French National Institute for Health and Medical Research.
But the researchers didn’t find a similarly protective effect in men, although other studies have found a benefit to males.
How might caffeine help ward off cognitive decline "It is a cognitive stimulant," said Ritchie. It also helps to reduce levels of the protein called beta amyloid in

| A child who has once been pleased with
a tale likes, as a rule, to have it retold in identically the same words, but
this should not lead parents to treat printed fairy stories as sacred texts. It
is always much better to tell a story than read it out of a book, and if a
parent can produce what, in the actual circumstances of the time and the
individual child, is an improvement on the printed test, so much the
better. A charge made against fairy tales is that they harm the child by frightening him or arousing his sadistic impulses. To prove the latter, one would have to show in a controlled experiment that children who have read fairy stories were more often g0.ilty of cruelty than those who had not. Every child has aggressive, destructive, sadistic impulses and, on the whole, their symbolic verbal discharge seems to be rather A. repeated without variation B. treated with reverence C. adapted by the parent D. set in the present [单项选择]
