Many people think daydreaming is bad for their emotions and has negative effects on their life and

those around makes adapting to life very hard and brains work less effectively.

Contrary to common ideas,the brains of people who are daydreaming might not stop working,but may

be working harder,new research has ists scanned the brains of people lying inside magnetic

resonance imaging(MRI) machines,as they pushed buttons or rested in scans showed that the

“default (默认的) network” deep inside a human brain becomes more active during daydreaming.

In a surprise finding,the scans also showed strong activity in the executive network,the outlying

region of the brain associated with complex problem-solving,says Professor Kalina Christoff,who is a co-author of the study.“People assume that when the mind wanders away,it just gets turned off—but we show

the it wanders,it is turned on,” says Christoff.

The findings,published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences,suggest,“People who let

themselves daydream might not think in the same focused way as when performing a goal-oriented

task,but they bring in more mental and brain resources,” says Christoff.

Barth said at Psychology Today that the more we daydream,the more our brain is able to hold

onto the task when we are being bombarded(轰炸) from all sides by all kinds of noises,information

input,and conflicting ’re not trying to escape the task at hand;rather,you’re trying to get

rid of all of the information and stimuli(刺激物) that could pose as bothers.

According to Christoff,people typically spend one third of their waking time daydreaming.“It is a big

part of our lives,but it has been largely ignored by science,” she says.“The study is the first to use MRIs to

study brain activity during automatic thoughts and subjective now the only way is to use

self-reports that are not always reliable.”

Hochul’s proposal to allow restaurants to sell drinks to go with reasonable limitations

was met with great enthusiasm all across New New York’s liquor(酒) stores have already

begun a campaign of misinformation in an effort to block this.

Their basic argument is that the governor’s proposal will result in an increase in underage

sales,drunken driving,or any other public health r,they throw these statements around

without offering any support for their claims—because there is none.

While the liquor stores frequently claim that the laws have been unchanged since the abolishment(废除) of Prohibition in 1934,in just the past 20 years the rules governing liquor stores have been

changed,permitting the use of online third-party delivery services and allowing stores to open on

circumstances,the State Liquor Authority will only issue a new liquor store license if the nearby stores

report steadily increasing r anti-competitive and outdated this restriction may be,it does serve

as a protection against their concerns—in the very unlikely event they come to pass.

Economically,the pandemic has been a major help to the liquor store the

more than 20% below pre-pandemic levels.

does the underlined word “their” in the last paragraph refer to?
