Scientists from the University ofRoehampton in the UK said this activity can help people improve their short-term memory. Researchers asked 114 volunteers to watch a video. After watching the video, the volunteers were divided into three groups. One group was told to walk 10 meters forward. The second group walked 10meters backward. The third group stood in one place. All three groups were then asked 20 questions about what they saw in the video. The scientists found that the backward-walking group got two more answers correct than the other two groups. This means time and space are linked, and that influences how we remember things. “Time is really expressed through space,” Aleksandar Aksentijevic, who led the study, told the Daily Mail. When you walk backward, you see things from a different way. This difference helps people remember the things that happened in the past. And walking backward is also good for the rest of our body. Compared(比较) to walking forward,walking backward is more challenging. This can help us improve our health, according to New Scientist.Walking backward uses more energy in a short time and burns more calories(卡路里). In addition, walking backward is less stressful for our knees. It could be helpful for people who often have pain in their knees, according to researchers from the University of Oregon in the US.Walking backward also keeps our spines(脊柱) strong, which can help to reduce pain in the lower back.This might be why many old people like walking backward.

Experiment Researchers asked 114 volunteers to watch a video, and then 68 them into three groups(walk forward, walk backward, stand still). All three groups 69 20 questions about the video. 70 Group 2 got more answers correct than the other two groups. Explanation The connection 71 time and space influences memory.
