Four common bad habits combined—smoking, drinking too much, inactivity and poor diet—can age you by 12 years, sobering new research suggests.
The findings are from a study that tracked nearly 5,000 British adults for 20 years, and they highlight yet another reason to adopt a healthier lifestyle.
Overall, 300 people studied had all four unhealthy behaviors. Among them, 90 died during the study, or 30 percent. Among the 400 healthiest people with none of the four habits, 8 percent of them died.
The risky behaviors were: smoking tobacco; downing more than three alcoholic drinks per day for men and more than two daily for women; getting less than two hours of physical activity per week; and eating fruits and vegetables fewer than three times daily.
These habits combined substantially increased the risk of death and made people who engaged in them seem 12 years older than people in the healthiest group, said lead researcher Elisabeth Kvaavik of the University of Oslo.
The healthiest group included never-smokers and those who had quit; teetotalers, women who had fewer than two drinks daily and men who had fewer than three; those who got at least two hours of physical activity weekly; and those who ate fruits and vegetables at least three times daily.
"You don't need to be extreme" to be in the healthy category, Kvaavik said. "These behaviors add up, so together it's quite good. It should be possible for most people to manage to do it."
The US government generally recommends at least 4 cups of fruits or vegetables daily for adults, depending on age and activity level, and about 2 hours of exercise weekly.
【小題1】What problem may you have, if you smoke often and eat few fruits and vegetables?
A.You would have difficulty in walking. | B.You would feel tired, lack of energy. |
C.You may look older than you really are. | D.You may face the risk of death of cancer. |
A.32. | B.24. | C.56. | D.120. |
A.Suggestions to smokers. | B.The results of four bad life habits. |
C.The findings of a new research. | D.The recommends from the US government. |

The Children’s Hour
The Children’s Hour by Lillian Hellman is a striking play about the power of a lie. Karen Wright (Keira Knightley) and Martha Dobie (Elisabeth Moss) run a girls’ boarding school in the 1930s New England. When an angry student starts a rumour that the two headmistresses are having a lesbian (女同性戀者) affair, it gradually destroys the women’s careers, relationships and lives. The Children’s Hour is an upsetting story of cheat, shame and courage.
Banned in London and several cities across America, The Children’s Hour received its world opening on Broadway in 1934. Generations on, its exploration of a culture of fear remains remarkably relevant.
Keira Knightley and Elisabeth Moss Star
Keira Knightley, nominee (被提名者) for Best Actress 2010 Evening Standard Awards for The Misanthrope, returns to the London stage. Knightley starred in Love Actually, The Pirates of the Caribbean Trilogy, Pride and Prejudice.
