An interesting project called Blue Zones is recording the lifestyle secrets of the communities?with the highest concentrations of centenarians in the world.
The people in the five regions in Europe,Latin America,Asia and the US that live to be 100?have a lot going for them.Genes probably play a small role,but these folks also have strong social?ties,tightly-knit families and lots of opportunities to exercise.
As we?were examining the dietary secrets of the Blue Zones,as described in author Dan?Buettner′s latest book,The Blue Zones Solution,we were struck by how essential tea drinking is in?these regions.In fact,Buettner′s Blue Zones Beverage Rule—a kind of guideline summarized from?his 15 or so years of studying these places—is:“Drink coffee for breakfast,tea in the afternoon,wine?at 5 p.m.”
Science has plenty to say about the healthful virtues of green tea.Researchers are most enthusi-astic about the components in green tea,as well as foods like cocoa.Why might they help so many?Okinawans in Japan break 1007 Some components in green tea can lower the risk of stroke,heart?disease and several cancers.One review study also found that drinking green tea can slightly improve?metabolism(新陈代谢).
If you find yourself on the island of Ikaria,the Greek Blue Zone in the middle of the Aegean,you won′t be offered any tea made with tea leaves.Instead,Ikarians typically make their daily cup of?tea with just one fresh herb that they have picked themselves that day—either rosemary,wild sage,oregano,marjoram,mint or dandelion,all plants that may have anti-inflammatory(消炎的)properties,which may help lower blood pressure.This could explain Ikaria′s very low dementia(痴呆)rate,since high blood pressure is a risk factor for the disease.

考题 共用题干 Want to Be 100? Listen to These 5 Centenarians(百岁老人)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 (长寿)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(寿命)of Americans is about two or three years short of an 80th birth-day 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 Woffson, 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-old are today.

考题 问答题Practice 2  The news couldn’t be worse. Three years of recession or anemic economic growth, Argentina’s debt default and collapse and—more recently—Bolivia’s president run out of office by indigenous people fed up with his pro-business, pro-Washington agenda. Taken together, these trials have seemingly erased the promise of prosperity that wafted across the region a decade ago. Now there’s the specter of a return to the dark days of the 1970s and 80s when economic and political chaos were the norm. Social eruptions have prompted a wide-ranging and contentious reappraisal of the economic orthodoxy—the neoliberal model that has shaped policy in Latin America for the past 15 years. Market-oriented structural reforms have succeeded in a few crucial ways: they ended the ruinous era of hyperinflation, and inculcated a sense of fiscal responsibility among profligate governments. But belt-tightening has not led to the robust economic performance promised when reforms began. After enjoying encouraging GDP expansion in the early and mid-1990s, Latin America has stumbled through about five years of economic stagnation that have left the region’s have-nots in a surly mood. Latin America desperately wants increased access to markets in the United States and Europe, but the region doesn’t want to pursue trade deals on what it perceives to be unfair terms. (Newsweek)
