time—they necessarily change.

There are no clear ways to stop the ending of a friendship.However，you can keep some friendships by simply making an effort to stay in touch.This works well when you change your location（地点）.When it comes to lifestyle changes，you must remember that these changes shouldn't matter if the friendship is strong.Changing friendship doesn't mean ending friendships.

50．（10分）Beer and eggs are commonly seen in the kitchen.However，scientists recently found that they were used in historic paintings，too.To protect Danish paintings
According to their paper published in Science Advances，grains（谷物） and yeast（酵母），and its by﹣products were grains and yeast.The study showed that they were used to provide a stable painting surface.Researchers also pointed out that beer by﹣product was used as a"glue"because it had a lot of sugar.With beer added，the paint can also dry faster.
Apart from beer，egg has long been found in oil﹣based paints used by artists in the 15th century，such as Italian painter Leonardo da Vinci.A recent study published in Nature Communications may have"cracked"the secret of how eggs can help protect artworks.
The researchers re﹣created the ancient paint by adding egg yolks（蛋黄） to oil paint.They then looked into how it changed over time.The findings showed that the yolk's proteins（蛋白质）helped slow the oxidation（氧化）（皱褶） as the egg makes the paint more smooth.However，the oil paint with added egg usually takes longer to dry.It seemed fine for artists—they were willing to accept to have their work kept for longer.
The more we understand how artists choose and use their materials，the more we can"appreciate what they're doing"，Ken Sutherland，US，told Science News
