16、rizona State University is like any other. A group of enthusiastic women sit attentively in the front row; the men are spread out in the back. But the hearing aids suggest how unusual this class is.Mirabella, a 20- storey “university retirement community” on ASUs campus, is home to over 300 retired
17、people. When it was opened in 2020, the senior-living facility was nearly fully subscribed. Most residents are having a ball. They can attend the same classes and cultural events as students, but with the distinct benefit of not having to take exams. In their dorms, facilities include an art studio,
18、 a pool and gym, and a games room. Only the second floor feels institutional, with a memory- care centre and rooms for residents who need round- the- clock attention.This is part of a wider trend. An estimated 85 colleges in America are now connected to senior living communities. With more than 10,0
19、00 baby boomers (生育高峰期出生的人) in America turning 65 every day, the opportunity for alternative forms of retirement is large.

Whether you re a fan of Christmas classics or prefer streamable and made-for-TV specials, theres always a reason holiday movie s are so popular even the most predictab
25、le. “In fact, this is what keeps us coming back. You would almost be disappointed if they werent a little predictable,” says Dr. Pamela Rutledge, a media psychologist. “Its not like theres going to be a heart-stopping surprise waiting to catch you off guard.”And while the plot of a city girl meeting
26、 a hometown guy is overused, Rutledge says these romantic holiday movies satisfy our inner desire for social connection and provide our brain with the confidence to anticipate something and have that be the case. The holiday season itself can be stressful, making these movies an easy go - to for rel
27、axation during a busy time of year. “These movies can act as cinema therapy, when you can relax with your friends,” says Allison Eden, associate professor of communication at Michigan State. “You dont have to work too hard to enjoy it. Theyre just gentle comforting, feel-good movies that can really
28、help, especially during times of stress.”The most stressed youll feel during most holiday movies? A silly, low- conflict misunderstanding between love interests that you know will be resolved by the end. “The brain responds to that whole journey with both the dopamine (多巴胺) of reward of having it tu

So sort of a win - win,” Rutledge says.If you think you can find the same win - win in other forms of media, it may be harder than you think. People often use social me

34、ooze (打盹), you lose.Bartleby has no such ambitions. But hes experimented with early starts, and found they not only bring the sense of satisfaction that comes from arriving before your editor. Inboxes can be cleared and tricky problems solved before the flood of emails and meetings, leaving you feel
35、ing well prepared for the day ahead.Early birds are certainly held in higher regard. Rolling into the office late is unacceptable in most workplaces. A study published in 2022 found night owls (猫头鹰) were perceived by respondents as being “lazy”, “undisciplined” and “immature”.Rising early is not, th
36、ough, all upside. Those ready to receive work when the boss arrives may be given more of it. If the early bird gets the worm, the clever worm stays in bed. Urgent tasks often come up during the day, meaning early arrivals may end up working just as late as other colleagues.Waking before sun rise als
37、o risks turning you into a bore. Some early risers cannot resist describing how much they get done while night owls hit the snooze button. Others go home early rather than socialize. Night owls, by contrast, let loose. In the eyes of many, late nights are the preserve of youth, while early mornings
38、are seen as for the elderly. Efforts to change your circadian (昼夜节律的) rhythm are likely to end in disappointment, as it is largely a product of genes. Perhaps the best advice is to stop worrying about your body clock. Most people are neither early birds nor night owls, but in between, struggling bot

42、xing has been practiced for centuries it was even one of the sports in the original Olympic Games in ancient Greece. 36 Hundreds of thousands of people from all walks of life participate in the sport every week. But why? The answer lies in the physical, mental and even social benefits boxing can bri
43、ng.Its physical benefits are clear. Whether its practicing with a punching (拳打) bag, training with a partner or facing an opponent in the ring, boxing can be an intense form of exercise and give a full- body workout. 37 And it can also increase anaerobic (无氧的) fitness allowing someone to work out ha

These can, in turn, positively impact other aspects of physical well- being, like heart health and weight management. 38 Boxing can also positively impact someones mental well- being.
