9.They wear the latest fashions with the most up-to-date accessories (配饰).Yet these are not girls in their teens or twenties but women in their sixties and seventies.A generation which would once only wear old-fashioned clothes is now favouring the same high street looks worn by those half their age.
    Professor Julia Twigg,a social policy expert,said,"Women over 75 are now shopping for clothes more frequently than they did when they were young in the 1960s.In the 1960s buying a coat for a woman was a serious matter.It was an expensive item that they would purchase only every three or four years-now you can pick one up at the supermarket whenever you wish to.Fashion is a lot cheaper and people get tired of things more quickly."
    Professor Twigg analysed family expenditure (支出)data and found that while the percentage of spending on clothes and shoes by women had stayed around the same-at 5or 6per cent of spending-the amount of clothes bought had risen sharply.
     The professor said,"Clothes are now 70per cent cheaper than they were in the 1960s because of the huge expansion of production in the Far East.In the 1960s Leeds was the heart of the British fashion industry and that was where most of the clothes came from,but now almost all of our clothes are sourced elsewhere.Everyone is buying more clothes but in general we are not spending more money on them."
    Fashion designer Angela Barnard,who runs her own fashion business in London,said older women were much more affected by celebrity (名流) style than in previous years.
    She said,"When people see stars such as Judi Dench and Helen Mirren looking attractive  and  fashionable  in  their sixties,they want  to follow  them.Older women are much more aware of celebrities.There's also the boom in TV programmes showing people how they can change their look,and many of my older customers do yoga to stay in shape well in their fifties.When I started my business a few years ago,my older customers tended to be very rich,but now they are what I would call ordinary women.My own mother is 61and she wears the latest fashions in a way she would never have done ten years ago."

16.Just finishing loading his car,my husband Jerry went back to the kitchen."I guess filling my thermos(保温瓶) is all I have left to do,and then I'm off."Down the drain went the hot water that had been warming his thermos.
With a nostalgic(怀旧的) look on his face,he softly said:"Anytime I fill my thermos I think of your mom."The tone in his voice was so tender as he spoke of my mother,who is sadly no longer with us.
"Oh honey,I know she's watching and listening right now with a big smile on her face,"I responded,tears in my eyes.
One morning years ago when we were leaving,mother watched as Jerry was to fill his thermos.Mom then casually said,"Jerry,if you filled your thermos with hot water and let it sit a while,your coffee would stay hot for longer then."With her simple suggestion,his face showed that he was shocked by his own lack of common sense,well,of course it would!
He poured out the small amount of coffee already in the thermos and refilled it with boiling hot water.Then he poured the water and refilled it with hot coffee.Mom smiled as Jerry did so.
Words of wisdom from a loving mother-in-law made an impact that will never be forgotten.She never dreamed her words would be a treasured and everlasting memory in the heart of her son-in-law.
The lasting memories don't necessarilycome from major moments in life.Memories are often made during those small,ordinary times Life is about small moments we share with friends and loved ones.
