I will be giving out points all day(and brainliest)
(If you know the answer please answer my first question)

First, choose two sources from each of the research
documents provided on this page, and summarize each
source below, in your own words. Be sure to include
the title of each source in your summary.

Second Page:Source: “Acceptability of smartphone technology to interrupt sedentary time in adults with
diabetes”
Abstract
Breaking up sitting time with light- or moderate-intensity physical activity may help to alleviate some negative health effects of sedentary behavior, but few studies have examined ways
to effectively intervene. This feasibility study examined the acceptability of a new technology
(NEAT!) developed to interrupt prolonged bouts (≥20 min) of sedentary time among adults with
type 2 diabetes. Eight of nine participants completed a 1-month intervention and agreed that
NEAT! made them more conscious of sitting time. Most participants (87.5 %) expressed a desire
to use NEAT! in the future. Sedentary time decreased by 8.1± 4.5 %, and light physical activity
increased by 7.9± 5.5 % over the 1-month period. The results suggest that NEAT! is an acceptable technology to intervene on sedentary time among adults with type 2 diabetes. Future
studies are needed to examine the use of the technology among larger samples and determine
its effects on glucose and insulin levels.
DISCUSSION
The current study suggests that the NEAT! technology is a feasible and acceptable tool to intervene on sedentary time among adults with type 2 diabetes, who may be unduly adversely
affected by excessive sitting. Participants used the technology for an average of 21 days over a
1-month period and indicated that using the technology made them more aware of how much
time they spent sitting. Furthermore, the majority of individuals agreed that they would use the
technology in the future if it were available, further suggesting NEAT!’s acceptability. As smartphone usage in the USA continues to rise, this ubiquitous technology may provide an opportunity to intervene to improve the health of a large proportion of the population.
CONCLUSIONS
Given the expected rise in the prevalence of diabetes in the USA, as well as the strong detrimental association between sedentary time and insulin or glucose levels, innovative approaches are
needed to break up prolonged sedentary behavior among the large proportion of the population affected by diabetes. The results of this study suggest that the NEAT! technology is an
acceptable tool for use by adults with type 2 diabetes. Additional refinement of the technology
is needed further to optimize improvements in sedentary time, physical activity, and breaks in
sedentary behavior. Examination of longer-term effects of using the technology on glucose and
insulin levels is also warranted.

What is the theme of old glory

Read the passage below. He fell silent. I sat meditating his words. For a time his wild hope of communication, of interpretation, with these weird beings held me. Then that angry despair that was a part of my exhaustion and physical misery resumed its sway. I perceived with a sudden novel vividness the extraordinary folly of everything I had ever done. What does Mr. Bedford’s reaction to Mr. Cavor’s plan imply about Bedford’s character? He is depressed about the mistakes he has made in life. He is more moved by emotion than reason.
