Developing healthy habits together A. Many of us enjoy post-apocalyptic horror movies, perhaps viewing them as a late-night guilty pleasure. However, research carried out at Penn State University at the beginning of 2021 suggested that people who regularly enjoy these films were better prepared for the reality of the COVID-19 pandemic than those who avoid scary movies. Even after factoring out personality influences, the team still found that the more horror, zombie, alien, and apocalyptic films people had watched, the better they coped with the pandemic. B.Scotland has three official languages: English, Scottish Gaelic, and Scots. Scottish Gaelic is an ancient Celtic language that evolved from Old Irish. It is mostly spoken in the Highlands and the Hebrides. Scottish English is the regular English spoken with a Scottish accent. Scots is a Germanic language that's closely related to English. It evolved from Old/Middle English in Northumbria, so it's still related to English. But it was also influenced by Latin, Norse, and even Norman French. Despite having three languages, people from different parts of Scotland can still understand each other. C. Friendships can help you make lifestyle changes that can have a direct impact on your well-being. Your friends can help you set and maintain goals to eat better and exercise more. They can also watch out for you and give you a heads-up when any unhealthy behaviours get out of hand. Additionally, people are more motivated and likely to stick to a weight loss or exercise program when they do it with a buddy. It's much easier to get out and stay active when you have a friend by your side. D. Nobody knows for sure how carrier pigeons find their way home. However, it is known that pigeons have a good memory for routes and can follow a landscape like a map. They can also sense places where the magnetic field changes a little and use these as landmarks. In addition, pigeons can hear very deep sounds that come from the movement of the earth. These sounds are different in every place. Their sensitive noses also play a big part in finding their homes.
