Longliving women are also more likely to be sympathetic and cooperative than women with a normal life span. These findings are in agreement with what you would expect from the evolutionary theory： those who like to make friends and help others can gather enough resources to make it through tough times.　　Interestingly， however， other characteristics that you might consider advantageous had no impact on whether study participants were likely to live longer. Those who were more selfdisciplined， for instance， were no more likely to live to be very old. Also， being open to new ideas had no relationship to long life， which might explain all those badtempered old people who are fixed in their ways.　　Whether you can successfully change your personality as an adult is the subject of a longstanding psychological debate. But the new paper suggests that if you want long life， you should strive to be as outgoing as possible.　　Unfortunately， another recent study shows that your mother’s personality may also help determine your longevity. That study looked at nearly 28，000 Norwegian mothers and found that those moms who were more anxious， depressed and angry were more likely to feed their kids unhealthy diets. Patterns of childhood eating can be hard to break when we’re adults， which may mean that kids of depressed moms end up dying younger.　　Personality isn’t destiny（命運）， and everyone knows that individuals can learn to change. But both studies show that long life isn’t just a matter of your physical health but of your mental health.　　51. The aim of the study in the Journal of the American Geriatrics Society is____.　　A）to see whether people’s personality affects their life span　　B）to find out if one’s lifestyle has any effect on their health　　C）to investigate the role of exercise in living a long life　　D）to examine all the factors contributing to longevity　　52. What does the author imply about outgoing and sympathetic people？　　A）They have a good understanding of evolution.　　B）They are better at negotiating an agreement.　　C）They generally appear more resourceful.　　D）They are more likely to get over hardship.　　53. What finding of the study might prove somewhat out of our expectation？　　A）Easygoing people can also live a relatively long life.　　B）Personality characteristics that prove advantageous actually vary with times.　　C）Such personality characteristics as selfdiscipline have no effect on longevity.　　D）Readiness to accept new ideas helps one enjoy longevity.　　54. What does the recent study of Norwegian mothers show？　　A）Children’s personality characteristics are invariably determined by their mothers.　　B）People with unhealthy eating habits are likely to die sooner.　　C）Mothers’ influence on children may last longer than fathers’.　　D）Mothers’ negative personality characteristics may affect their children’s life spans.　　 can we learn from the findings of the two new studies？　　A）Anxiety and depression more often than not cut short one’s life span.　　B）Longevity results from a bination of mental and physical health.　　C）Personality plays a decisive role in how healthy one is.　　D）Health is in large part related to one’s lifestyle.　　　Part IV Translation （30 minutes）　　Directions： For this part， you are allowed 30 minutes to translate a passage from Chinese into English.
