9、ne have discovered an effective new method to capture the atmospheric carbon dioxide that is damaging our planet and transform it into something solid, making it much easier to store.Carbon capture isnt new, but previous methods call for the gas to get into a liquid and then the mixed gas is forced
10、into underground. Widespread usage of that technology has been blocked by economic and environmental concerns due to possible leaks. Instead, in a study published in Nature Communications, the group details their lasting and cost-effective plan for transforming CO2 into coal.This new process involve
11、s a liquid metal catalyst（催化剂） that is useful in conducting electricity. CO2 gas is then mixed in a container with some liquid and the liquid metal. Once electricity charge is introduced, the CO2 begins to turn into solid pieces of carbon, which can be collected and stored.What makes this particular
12、ly unique is that the entire process can occur at room temperature. Previousexperiments have only shown a gas to solid conversion at extremely high temperatures, which made it impossible on a large scale. Now, the researchers are hoping that their work will be used to create even further options whe
13、n it comes to carbon storage.In an interesting side benefit, the solid carbon also works as an electrode(电极），which opens up a world of possibilities. “A side benefit of the process is that the carbon can hold electrical charge, becoming a super battery, so it could potentially be used as a part in f

18、tists at Oxford University reported that adults with normal math abilities were able to improve their performance on a series of numerical tests with the help of a technique known as transcranial direct-current stimulation (TDCS).TDCS involves stimulating specific regions of the brain with low-level
19、 electrical currents to improve or reduce the activity of neurons (神经细胞). Over the last decade, the procedure has shown promise in improving brain functions in stroke (中风) victims, as well as in people with Parkinsons disease.

Control tests showed that the effect was specific to the learned symbols and did not affect other cognitive(认知的) functions
