Want to Be 100?Listen to These 5 Centenarians（百歲老人）

　　Five neighbors at a central Missouri retirement community who are all centenarians get asked all the time:"How did you live to be 100?"

　　If you want to live to 100 or more,this rare group of five golden girls says the key to longevity（長壽）is working hard at a job you love and taking care of your body while you're at it.

　　Even though an estimated 70,000 people in the country are currently at the century mark or beyond in age,it is unusual to find five 100-year-olds living in one place.

　　The average life-span（壽命）of Americans is about two or three years short of an 80th birthday party.And most people don't want to cut out coffee,soda,alcohol,cigarettes,and eat healthy food.

　　"People tell me all the time,'I don't want to live to be 100,'"said Mildred Leaver,who turned 100 in June.

　　"I think that's just sad.Aging is attitude and I don't feel old,"said Leaver,a former educator who still drives her Buick around town.

　　It doesn't take long to see that Leaver and her neighbors Mildred Harris,Grace Wolfson,Gladys Stuart and Viola Semas,have a lot more in common than their longevity and lifelong healthy habits.All are 100 except Stuart,who is 101.

　　Even though their sight and hearing aren't what they used to be,they've all avoided illnesses that many elderly people are stricken with.It's been 50 years since Leaver beat cancer for the first and only time.

　　The common thread that connects these women is the decades of service to jobs each loved as a farmer,designer,school principal,bookkeeper and secretary.In the early years of their lives,gainfully employed women like them were just as rare as 100-year-olds are today.

　　16.Currently about 70,000 people are aged 100 or above in America.

　　A.Right　　B.Wrong　　C.Not mentioned

　　17.It is not hard to find five 100-year-olds living in one place in America.

　　A.Right　　B.Wrong　　C.Not mentioned

　　18.None of the five centenarians have any children.

　　A.Right　　B.Wrong　　C.Not mentioned

　　19.The average life-span of Americans is 80 years.

　　A.Right　　B.Wrong　　C.Not mentioned

　　20.Leaver feels sad about her old age.

　　A.Right　　B.Wrong　　C.Not mentioned

　　21.Leaver was stricken with cancer 50 years age.

　　A.Right　　B.Wrong　　C.Not mentioned

　　22.The five centenarians live in a very friendly community.

　　A.Right　　B.Wrong　　C.Not mentioned

Facts about Stroke

　　1Every 45 seconds,someone in America has a stroke.Every 3.1 minutes,someone dies of one.Stroke killed an estimated 167,661 people in 2000 and is the nation's third leading cause of death,ranking behind diseases of the heart and all forms of cancer.Stroke is a leading cause of serious,long-term disability in the United States.

　　2Stroke is a type of cardiovascular（心血管的）disease.It affects the arteries（動脈）leading to and within the brain.A stroke occurs when a blood vessel that carries oxygen and nutrients（營養(yǎng)物）to the brain is either blocked by a clot（凝塊）or bursts.When that happens,part of the brain cannot get the blood（and oxygen）it needs,so it starts to die.

　　3The brain is an extremely complex organ that controls various body functions.If a stroke occurs and blood flow can't reach the region that controls a particular body function,that part of the body won't work as it should.If the stroke occurs toward the back of the brain,for instance,it's likely that some disability involving vision will result.The effects of a stroke depend primarily on the location of the obstruction（阻塞）and the extent of brain tissue affected.

　　4The American Stroke Association has identified several factors that increase the risk of stroke.The more risk factors a person has,the greater the chance that he or she will have a stroke.Some of these you can't control,such as increasing age,family health history,race,and prior stroke.But you can change or treat other risk factors to lower your risk.Factors resulting from lifestyle or environment can be modified with a healthcare provider's help.Some of these include:high blood pressure,current smoking,heart disease,and high red blood cell count.

　　5A stroke can happen to anyone at any moment.In fact about 600,000 people have strokes every year.For many years,there was no hope for those suffering a stroke.However,recent breakthroughs have led to new treatments.For the treatments to work,the person must get to a hospital immediately.
