Did you know that you could expect to live almost 20 years longer today than someone who was born 100 years ago?
Thanks to the development of science, life expectancy (预期寿命) in most countries has been increasing(增加,增长) for ten years. But researchers believe we have finally reached our biological limit (生理极限).
A report in the magazine Nature says it is almost impossible our life expectancy will increase again. The oldest person to ever live was a French woman Jeanne Calment, who was 122 when she died in 1997. The report says she will probably remain the oldest, because it is almost impossible that anyone will live over 115. The “absolute maximum age (绝对最大年龄)” may be 125, according to the report, but it is not very possible that anyone could actually live that long.
Jan Vijg at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine in New York led the research. His team studied the age of people who had died in America, Britain, France and Japan. They found that the age of the oldest people dying had increased regularly between the 1960s and 1990s. But beginning in the 1990s, “you no longer see that,” Vijg told NPR. “You see that it stays the same.”
Of course, many scientists and companies are still trying to find ways to increase our lifespan (寿命) over 125. But there is one simple way to make sure you live a healthy and long life. “Stop smoking, start exercising and eat healthily,” Professor Dame Linda Partridge, told CNN. “What will be will be. It’s only a question of when.”
1.What did researchers find?
A. The oldest age is increasing year by year.
B. People who were born 100 years ago usually live longer.
C. People now are not stronger than those born 100 years ago.
D. It’s almost impossible that human’s life expectancy will increase.
2.The oldest person to ever live _____.
A. came from the US B. was a man
C. was 122 years old D. died 20 years ago
3.According to the report, people may not live longer than _____ years old.
A. 115 B. 120 C. 122 D. 125
4.Which of the following is true according to the article?
A. The research studied people from different countries.
B. The oldest age stayed the same from the 1960s to the 1990s.
C. With the development of science, people will live longer and longer.
D. If we live in a healthy way, we will definitely have a chance to live over 125.
