Is nuclear power gaining new energy?
[ Ссылка ]
But only one country, Finland, has actually built such a facility, while environmentalists and anti-nuclear campaigners argue that (ridding, dumping, disposing, dropping) waste out of sight and out of mind is simply too risky.
Solving that (mystery, conundrum, impasse, entanglement) may be a key factor in dictating whether there really will be a new age of nuclear power.
Researchers study impact of singing on wellbeing
[ Ссылка ]
More than 300 people have taken part in an experiment to (find, discover, seek, detect) if singing can improve mental health and wellbeing.
Researchers invited people to take part in Sing for Happiness which saw participants take part in choir sessions where data on mood was collected, (culminating, peaking, crowning, completing) in a festive performance.
The study, run by St George's music venue in Bristol and the University of the West of England (UWE) in the run up to Christmas aimed to build on the (findings, judgements, verdicts, detections) of a similar project in the summer.
John Neugebauer said he had a "joyful" experience by taking part and created "instant bonds" with (colleague, fellow, companion, comrade, partner) singers.
"If anyone is considering singing in a (choir, chorus, choral, troupe, orchestra) and had no training just go for it you'll really benefit from it, you'll get a feeling of being part of something bigger than yourself - such joy," he added.
"You get a great (dash, race, rush, bolt) of endorphins when you're singing. When words don't do certain feelings justice you can sing."
Jon Munday said he was (aroused, incited, inspired, urged) to take part after his friend joined the project in the summer.
"I've had no singing experience in a choir so it can be quite (discouraging, daunting, bullying, gruesome) at first when you worry about not being able to hit certain notes, but once you put that aside and have that shared experience you feel the difference straight away," he said.
"I feel much more (powered, energised, boosted, abated) much more grounded. Everything goes out of the window when you start singing."
Data was (presented, surrendered, submitted, yielded) by 361 participants who took part in the summer event, including mood surveys and wellbeing questionnaires completed before and after the sessions.
The research found the mood of participants immediately (better, improved, greater, finer) by singing together and they felt calmer, more energised and happier.
