8、 2、These days scientists have been looking beyond diet and lifestyle to genetic factors（基因因素）when it comes to long life. The small village of Molochio in Calabria, Italy, has a population of about 2,000. And of these, there are at least eight people over a hundred years old. Researchers ask people a
9、bout the secret of their long life. The answer is invariably （一贯地）to do with diet and is almost always the same , “I eat a lot of fruit and vegetables. A A little bit, but of everything.

10、e genes that explain why some people are protected from the harmful genes that affect the aging process. In one small region, Ecuador, there are a number of people with a genetic condition called Laron syndrome, which restricts a person s growth to little more than a metre, but also seems to protect
11、 them against cancer. Those with Laron syndrome live longer than the rest of their families.

12、aron syndrome group. Back in Calabria, scientists have been trying to work out exactly how much of the local longevity（长寿）is due to genetics and how much to environmental factors.

These small plastic cards do more than showing the names and pictures of students. In recent years, IDs in some colleges can also buy things. The schools enter into agreements with banks so stu
