20．This year our meetingfocuses on the question of children's rights．
17．A new international study shows that some people's biological clock plays a powerful role for their life expectancy，regardless of lifestyle choices．
    Published in the latest issue of Aging on Wednesday，the study has found the most definitive evidence to explain why some people keep healthy lifestyle but die younger than others．
    Geneticist Steve Horvath from the University of California，Los Angeles （UCLA），led a team of 65scientists around the world to record age-related changes to human DNA，analyse blood samples collected from 13，000 people and estimate their lifespan．
    A higher biological age，regardless of actual age，consistently predicts an earlier death，the study says．
"You get people who are vegan，sleep 10hours a day，have a low-stress job，and still end up dying young，"Horvath said in a statement．"We have shown some people have a faster innate aging rate．"
    The findings discovered that 5 percent of the population ages at a faster biological rate，which translated to a roughly 50 percent higher than average risk of death at any age．
"The great hope is that we find anti-aging interventions that would slow your innate aging rate，"Horvath said，adding that"this is an important milestone to realizing this dream．"

18．Empathy，the Key to Being Kind
In science class，your teacher tells everyone to find a partner for a project．Out of the comer of your eye，you notice one girl sitting alone and not making eye contact with anyone．You think about asking her to be your partner，but you're afraid people will think you're uncool．You don't reach out．（36）EEmpathy is being able to understand and actually feel what someone else is feeling．For some people，this comes naturally； for others，it takes a bit more work．（37）BWhen you practice being empathetic，it gets easier to make kindness a part of your everyday life．If you can understand why people are feeling down，you'll want to help them．Here are some ideas that can help you．
（38）DSomeone not being able to find a group in class might not seem like a big deal-but part of being kind is noticing when someone seems sad，hurt or uncomfortable．After all，you have to notice how people feel in order to feel empathy and want to help them!
When you're trying to make kindness second nature，really getting other people's feelings is important．
（39）GThink about a time when you felt that way．Didn't you wish someone would reach out to you？If someone had offered you a few words of comfort，wouldn't it have made you feel so much happier？
So，when you find people around you who are feeling down next time，do not hesitate to put yourself in their shoes and reach out to them with a kind gesture．（40）AThere is always a time when you expect others to relate to you and feel what you feel．

A．And your kindness will be finally rewarded．
B．But empathy is super important to being kind．
C．Be open to learning more about what you don't understand．
D．One way to practice empathy is to pay attention to the people around you．
E．However，you never know showing empathy may make all the difference to her．
F．You don't have to have a similar background to someone else to feel empathy for them．
G．Whenever you find someone might be feeling lonely or sad，put yourself in his shoes．
