五、七选五Its commonlythought thatpeople getinto badfinancialsituationsbecause ofpoordecision-making skills.36In fact,several studiesover thelastdecadehavedemonstrated thatthe causeand effectmay bemore complexthan iswidely believed.37Scientists firstasked thestudy participantsaseriesof questionsthat madethem thinkabouttheir personalincomeandsavings.They werethen askedto solvea numberof puzzles.Those inbetterfinancial situationsperformedbetteratsolvingthepuzzlesthan thosein financialtrouble.However,when thetest wasrepeated withoutmakingtheparticipants thinkabout theirownfinances,thedifferences inperformancebetweentherichandpoordisappeared.38In aseparate studyconducted in2018attheUniversityofTexas,the brainsof morethan300people agedbetween20and89were scannedand analyzedfor signsof goodcognitive function.Among thoseagedbetween35and64,it wasfound thatthosewithbetter financialsituations hadhealthierbrains,including characteristicslinked tohavingabetter memoryandalower riskof dementiawhenelderly.However,in youngeradults thoseaged20to34,there didnot seemtobeanyconnection betweenwealthandbrainhealth.39Its notdifficult toguess whypoverty mighthave theseeffects.People wholive inpoorerconditions oftenhavedifficultyaffordinghealthyfood.40And alwayswonying abouthaving enoughmoneytopayrentorputfoodonthetableputsconstant demandsonthebrain,leaving lessprocessingpower availableforcriticalthinking.Indeed,it couldbe saidthat povertyisavicious cycle,keepingpeople trappedby takingaway theirbest meansof escape-their abilitytomakesmart decisions.A.But ispoverty reallycaused bypoor thinkingB.Unwise decisionspeople make,toagreater degree,contributetotight budgets.C.They aremore affectedbynegativeenvironmentalelementssuchaspollution.D.Taken together,these resultsindicate thatlong-term povertyonly graduallycauses wearandtear onthebrain.E.Therefore,the scientistsconcluded thatpoor thinkingplaysamajor partin onesfuturefinancial condition.F.This suggestedthatthedistractionofworryingabouttheirbadfinancesmadethepoorpeopleperform worsethanthosewith nofinancial worries.G.One studyinthejournal Sciencein2013showed thatpeoples abilitiesto solveproblems canbesignificantly affectedby theircurrent financialsituation.
