"Did you ever hear your grandparents ask questions likethis? Usually, we think older people's memories (记忆力) become bad because their brains get weak. But a team of scientists inGermany has a different idea."The human brain (人类大脑) works slower in old age, "said lead scientist Michael Ramscar, "but only because they have stored more information over time. "The findings are a result (结果) of many computer simulations (模拟) of learning and memory.Scientists let the computers read some words and learn new things each day. When the computer "reads"only so much, its resultin cognitive (认知) tests is similarto that of a young person. But if the computer learns much more than that, its result issimilar to that of an older person.It is slower because more information makes the computer's database ( 数据库) grow, giving it more data to work with which takes time. This is similar to old people.Think about this. A person knows two people's birthdays. Another person knows the birthdays of 2,000 people, but canonly match the right person to the right birthday nine times out of ten. Can you say the first person has a better memory than thesecond person?
