In 2016,Strlok dcolded to atudy tho conneotion between muscles and stress by using a motbod he pioneered. Striok invented a prooess where he oould put a virus into an organ to traok the neural network a that connect the braln and the muscles."So we inJected (the adrenal medulla with a virus,and we tracked le baok into the brain and thon mapped whioh areas influenced the adrenal,he says."And that's where the suprise came." Essentially,Striok dlacoverad that our stress responsq is controlled by more than just the'thinking'part of the brain. Other parts of the brain,including those controlling our muscles,are also sending signals to the adrenal medulla. And the area of the brain that communicates with the adrenal recoives signals/from the core-musoles as well.So, strengthening those muscles,Striok says,can adjust our stress. When we'ro tapping away at a computer in a chair all day,many of us feel more mentally atressed.Striok recommends strengthening the core muscles so that sitting upright all day becomes more.natural."Slump,and then sit up straight,"ho says"And see what the difference they make to your mood." Strick also says this discovery was a wake-up oall for his own health.He oredits his children,who persuaded him to try yoga years ago."And I once said,come on,give me a break.I don't havo time,"he says."But as it turns out,they're right." 28.What can.we lear about Strick's study?] A.lig referred-to other researohers'methods. B.He observed the influence ayirus nas on the adrenal. C.Ehe got the result similar to that of previous studies. D.He found the part of the brain managing muscles can affect stress. 29.What does the underlined word"slump'probably mean in paragraph 3? A.Sink into a chair. B.Stand up all of a sudden.

"The way we interact during virtual communications may reveal something more about ourselves,"said paper author and IU psyohologist Simon Dube in a statement,"It is not juat a smiley face or heart emoji-it's a way to convey meaning and opmmunicate more cffectively,and how you usc it tells us something about you,"he said. In their study,Dube and his colloagues interviowed 320 U.S.adults who regularly send and reoeive text mossages.Each subjeot was surveyed about his or her identity information,typlcal emoji use,emotional intolligence and so-called attachment styles. The latter refers to the ways in which we relate to other people when in olose relationships and are thought to be influenced by how we interact with parents and other caregivers early in life.Children who feel safe,proteoted and supported by their caregivers tend to go on to develop a secure attachment style,which is the healthiest type.In contrast,ohildren whose parents are emotionally distant or dismissive tend to develop an avoidant attachment style and struggle to develop olose relationshipsuater in life Inoonsistent caregiving,meanwhile,can lead to.anxious atracbment,where people long forloloseness put meanwhile fear abandonment and rejection. The researchers found that texters with higher levels of emotional intelligenoe and secure attachment styles tend to use more emoji when messaging.Overall,women were found to use emoji more with friends and family than their male counterparts do.However,women were found to send and receive emoji less often with friends,dates and romantio partners when they exhibited more avoidant styles of attachment.Men withavoidant attacbmer, meanwhile,were found to send fewer emoji to partners.
