是的，我会的。我父母认为解谜是种刺激智力发育的良好方式，并因此在我小时候给我买了很多智力玩具，比如魔方、拼图和填词游戏。他们甚至规定我每天应该在解谜上花费的时间。

When do you do puzzles,during your trip or when you feel bored?你会在什么时候解谜，旅途中还是感到无聊的时候？

I should say both.While I am on a trip,I prefer puzzles with a stable structure,like the Rubik,so that the constant swing and bump will not interrupt my solving process.By contrast,I will choose jigsaws or crossword if I feel bored at home.They need a quiet environment and consume more time.

两者都会。当我在旅途之中的时候，我更喜欢拥有稳定结构的谜题，比如魔方，以便持续不断的摇晃和颠簸不会干扰到我的解谜过程。相比之下，如果我在家觉得无聊的话，我会选择拼图或者填词。它们需要安静的环境，能够消耗更多的时间，

Number puzzles.As a man who does not enjoy reading,I often find word puzzles beyond my capability.I mean,sometimes,because of the limitation of my lexical resources,I can be stuck on a puzzle for a whole afternoon.As for number puzzles,I can always find a way out as long as I know basic arithmetic.

数字谜题。作为一个不喜欢阅读的人，我总是觉得字谜超出了我的能力。我的意思是，由于词汇量有限，我有时候会在一个谜题上卡一下午。至于数字谜题，只要我知道基本的数学运算，我就总能找到解决方法。

是的，我认为如此。它能够帮助老年人在独处的时候消除无聊，享受一些品质时光。但更重要的是，解谜能够刺激大脑，减缓其退化，并显著降低老年痴呆的风险。
