A Taipei Times article reports on research showing that linguistic training, such as daily reading, significantly increases gray and white matter in the brains of healthy elderly individuals, potentially slowing cognitive decline. The study, a collaboration between Taiwanese and Japanese institutions, involved a month-long reading program for Japanese participants aged 65-90. Other articles in the same publication cover unrelated topics, including an increase in earthquakes exceeding magnitude 5.5, China's potential military exercises near Taiwan, expert opinions on a potential Taiwan invasion, and an upcoming delivery of modern M1 tanks to bolster Taiwan's defense capabilities.
