14、tion, medical care, homes and cars. But its not just about the money. For many Americans, selfworth is linked to our professional success or failure.We could learn about what makes people happy, and what does not, by studying people over the course of their lives. For almost 80 years, Harvard Medica
15、l School researchers have been doing just that. The Harvard Study of Adult Development is one of the most comprehensive studies in history. Since 1938, Henry, one of its professor has followed the lives of a group of men from their teen years to old age. Later, he began to follow their wives and chi
16、ldren as well. The study finds that wealth, social position and an important job title do not necessarily lead to health and happiness.Robert Waldinger is the current director of the study. He is a professor at Harvard Medical School. Waldinger shared some of the findings with a Harvard Gazette repo

But is it healthy to avoid exercise during the workweek and then try to fit it all in during the weekend?A
22、new study suggests that, yes, it is healthy. Australian researchers at the University of Sydney did the study. It took place over a nineyear period. During that time, the researchers looked at the selfreported exercise habits and health examinations of more than 63,000 adults in England and Scotland
23、. Then they connected that information to death records.The researchers found that people who exercised only one or two days a week improved their chances of living longer than people who did not exercise at all. Even those who are fat could extend their lives by exercising a couple of days per week
24、.Emmanuel Stamatakis is the senior author of the study. He says that he found it very encouraging that even people who exercised as little as one or two times a week appear to lower their risk of early death. In other words, their health improves even if they dont meet the suggested weekly amount of
25、 physical activity. However, to be in the best health, Stamatakis says more exercise is better.The WHO suggests that adults should get at least 150 minutes of moderate to intense activity per week.

From reference books to funny jokes, you made each class
30、exciting. You always tried to make class charming so that we could be excited about learning. However, those days have gone by.Whenever I was confused and needed extra help, you were the exact one to turn to. I would walk into your room for help and there would be several kids.
