26、s are developing new helmets（头盔），and new rules are limiting physical contact in some sports. But are these efforts enough to protect kids brains?Concussions can happen during many types of activities. But sports like football and soccer are especially risky. When you run or jump，your body is moving

But the best wa

Cocoa prices have risen by more than 60 percent since 2012.But its not all doo

39、m and gloom for chocolate.One Central American research organization has developed more new strains of cacao that are diseaes-resistant but still taste good. And some experts say the shortage has been exaggerated（夸大）.“While our estimates show that supply shortages are likely to occur during the next

40、 several years，”the ICCO said in a statement，“supplies of cocoa beans should last until production growth increases.”In other words，the worlds chocolate lovers may not need to panic just yet.32The main reasons for the cocoa shortage are .Ahot and dry climate and plant diseases Bhigh temperatures and
