A study by a team at Northumbria University showed that smokers lost more of their memory when compared to non-smokers.

And the research also found that those who kicked the habit saw their ability to recollect information back to almost the same level as non-smokers.

The study involved more than seventy 18-to-25-year-olds and included a research of the university .Those who took part were asked to recall small details, such as a list of songs played at the Students’ Union and tasks completed at various points .

Smokers performed badly, remembering just 59 %of tasks. But those who had given up smoking remembered 74 %and those who had never smoked recalled 81 % of tasks.

Dr. Tom Heffernan, who leads Northumbria University’s Collaboration for Drug and Alcohol Research Group, said the findings would be useful in movements against smoking. He said, “This is the first time that a study has set out to examine whether giving up smoking has an effect on memory.”

“We already know that giving up smoking has huge health benefits (好處)for the body, but this study also shows how stopping smoking can have knock-on benefits for cognitive functions （認(rèn)知）too. ’’

The tree house

Many architects in the world would like to build a “tree house.” Like a leaf, the surface of the house collects sunlight during the day. The energy can be used to heat water, produce electricity, and even create fresh air for the home. The “root” (根) of the house is deep under the ground. It uses the soil (土壤) to the home’s temperature.

The Lizard house

Like a lizard (蜥蜴), changing color with the weather is the most important design of a lizard house. When it’s in the bright sun, the cover of the house will turn dark to protect it from strong heat. During dark days, it turns white and takes in as much light and heat as possible to produce energy.

Meals at home

This design is perhaps as much about the future of food production as architecture (建筑風(fēng)格). It has gardens on the outside wall of the house. People can plant tomatoes, carrots and green tea on them. So every day in the morning, you just need to walk outside and collect your meals.

Learning from the past

Looking to the future isn’t the only way to be green. Sometimes, ancient techniques (古老的技術(shù)) can also help cut down energy use. For example, a chimney (煙囪) can be a useful air conditioner because it is easier of hot air to flow out at the chimney.
