For most people, that would have destroyed any hope of a dancing career. But for Hill, it was the beginning

24、. Far from being a barrier, her wheelchair encouraged her to fight. “I want to prove to everyone including myself that Im still normal,” she said, “whatever normal means.”Normal for her meant dancing, so Hill did it in her wheelchair alongside her nondisabled high school dance team. Half of her body

25、 was taken away from her, so she had to move it with her hands.

28、mmates had taught me.” she said. “I didnt know I could be sexy. Its so powerful to have my teammates in my life, because theyre my teachers. I have more confidence.”Chelsie Hill attained what many of us never will: her childhood dream. She has been chasing her dream in the wheelchair. Shes a dancer.

32、your brain sharper.Yes, it turns out that overweight may damage cognitive functions (认知功能) such as memory and attention. There have been few studies of overweight and cognitive functioning, possibly because it is generally believed that it is not a primary risk cause for poor cognitive performance.

Growing evidence suggests that being fat is linked to cognitive deficits (缺陷). So Gunstad and his team guessed that losing w

34、eight might improve mental function.

At the end of the study, those who had lost weight after operation improved their scores into the average or above averag

36、e range for cognitive functions. Scores for the volunteers who didnt lose weight dropped even further. The study helped Gunstad to find out whether losing weight had any effect on mental function. Now that hes seen the positive effect that weight loss can have on memory and attention, he says he wil

37、l next study those who choose to lose weight by the traditional wayeating healthier and getting more active. He expects that losing weight in this way will have a similarly positive effect on the brain. “If we can improve the condition with operations, then we can probably produce the same change wi
