Age-liars and birthday-deniers... you'd best learn a thing or two from those who are young at heart. People who feel younger than their actual age may live longer than those who feel older than they truly are, a new study says.

Perceived age might play a role in more than just how you feel. Results from the study, published in the Journal of the American Medical Association suggest that people who feel a year or more older than they truly are could have around 41 per cent greater risk for death.

University College London researchers looked at nearly 6,500 older adults, with an average age of 65.8 for the study. Around 70 per cent of the subjects felt younger than they were, about a quarter felt their precise age and just under 5 per cent felt a year or more older than they were, when asked \

Those who felt older than they were had a higher death rate after a follow-up period of 99 months. While just 14.3 and 18.5 per cent of people who felt younger or felt their age, respectively, died during those 99 months, 24.6 per cent of those who felt aged beyond their years had died.

The authors say more research is needed on the topic, but suggest it could be that those who feel \顺应力), giving them a stronger will to live. \change, so interventions may be possible. Individuals who feel older than their actual age could be targeted with health messages promoting positive health behaviors and attitudes toward aging,\helping participants have positive feelings about age, by showing them positive word associations, also helped older adults improve in physical tasks like balancing and getting up out of a chair, in as little as four weeks.

There you have it Age really should be treated as just a number. 68. What does the underlined part \A. The age you think you are. B. Your actual age.

C. it's proved that healthier behavior is the main reason for longer age D. people feeling young at heart tend to live longer than others 71. What is the purpose of the passage?

Students wishing to safeguard their careers against changes in the job market should opt for science rather than arts degrees, according to a survey of undergraduates.

Engineering and chemistry were considered to be the most \万金油技能), as they are courses most likely to lead to an enduring and adaptable career.

Students polled by a college were broadly optimistic that their chosen courses would prepare them for a world in which the job market could change dramatically during their working lives.

But opinion was sharply divided over which degrees were best for future-proof careers. Eighty-two per cent of respondents believed engineering would help develop future-proof skills, with 74 per cent believing the same of chemistry and 73 per cent of computer science.

But just 33 per cent of undergraduates believed history would lead to a future-proof career, and 40 per cent English.

The findings, published today, come after Education Secretary Nicky Morgan sparked controversy with claims that teenagers should steer clear of the arts and humanities and opt for science or maths subjects if they want to access the widest range of jobs.

She said that in previous decades students would only take maths or science if they wanted to pursue a specific career such as medicine or pharmacy, but nowadays that \

\you wanted to do something different, or even if you didn't know what you wanted to do... then the arts and humanities were what you chose. Because they were useful—we were told—for all kinds of jobs. Of course now we know that couldn't be further from the truth, that the subjects that keep young people's options open and unlock doors to all sorts of careers are the STEM (science, technology, engineering and maths) subjects.\

\figures show us that too many young people are making choices aged 15 which will hold them back for the rest of their lives,\72. Where would you most likely find the passage?

One possible version: Dear editor.

This term, our school has been organizing students to do rooming jogging between classes. Students have different opinions on this activity. I'm now writing to express my view on it.

In my opinion, doing morning run brings us lots of benefits. Firstly, the proper amount of exercise in the run is good for our health, especially for us Grade Three students, who would otherwise ignore physical activities. What's more, after the run, we feel refreshed and can have better performance in the following classes. Besides, jogging is meaningful in training students' character. They will learn to lie strong-willed and not easily give up

Last but not least, to enjoy morning jogging, you should remember to have a good breakfast at home, or the exercise will be too much for you. Let's join in jogging and live an active life!

Yours,
