Walking 3,000 or more steps a day may slow progression of Alzheimer’s, study says
Even modest amounts of daily exercise may slow the progression of Alzheimer’s disease in older people who are at risk of developing the condition, researchers have said.
People are often encouraged to clock up 10,000 steps a day as part of a healthy routine, but scientists found 3,000 steps or more appeared to delay the brain changes and cognitive decline that Alzheimer’s patients experience.
Results from the 14-year-long study showed cognitive decline was delayed by an average of three years in people who walked 3,000 to 5,000 steps a day, and by seven years in those who managed 5,000 to 7,000 steps daily.
“We’re encouraging older people who are at risk of Alzheimer’s to consider making small changes to their activity levels, to build sustained habits that protect or benefit their brain and cognitive health,” said Dr Wai-Ying Yau, the first author on the study at Mass General Brigham hospital in Boston. Dementia affects an estimated 50 million people worldwide, with Alzheimer’s disease the most common cause.

Choose the alternative that correctly completes the blanks in the text.
( ) Words in the same semantic field must always have the same grammatical category (e.g., all nouns or all verbs).
( ) Words related to emotions, such as anxiety, joy, anger, and relief, cannot be considered part of a semantic field because they describe feelings.

Choose the alternative which presents the correct sequence, from top to bottom.

III. Reversing binomials like "bread and butter" to "butter and bread" is grammatically incorrect and disrupts the semantic unity.

Pedagogical Practice in English as a Second Language
Teaching English as a second language involves creating meaningful opportunities for learners to use the language in real and purposeful contexts. Effective pedagogical practice includes the integration of speaking, listening, reading, and writing activities that reflect authentic communication. Teachers often adopt communicative approaches, encouraging students to interact, express opinions, and solve problems using English.
Another key aspect of ESL teaching is the use of diverse resources, such as videos, songs, digital tools, and real-life materials. These elements help students connect classroom learning with everyday language use. Additionally, good practice involves formative assessment, in which the teacher constantly observes learners’ progress, provides feedback, and adjusts activities according to their needs. In this way, ESL teachers promote not only language development but also learners’ confidence and autonomy.
1. The underline words in paragraph 1 from text 2 meaningful and purposeful, are, respectively noun suffixes.
2. The ( ‘ ) in constantly observes learners’ progress, provides feedback, is being used to form the possessive case of a plural noun.
3. In the sentence provides feedback, and adjusts activities according to their needs, the word their, refers to activities.
4. In the sentence ESL teachers promote not only language development but also learners’ confidence and autonomy, the not only / but also construction is used to connect two similar, grammatically equal parts of a sentence.
Choose the alternative which presents all the correct sentences.
