2.Nearing the age of 101has not slowed down one Japanese woman.In fact,in the swimming pool-she is only getting faster.
Recently,a 100-year-old Japanese woman became the world's first  centenarian to complete a 1,500-meter freestyle swimming competition in a 25-meter poo1.
Her name is Mieko Nagaoka.Ms.Nagaoka set a world record for her age group at a recent Japan Masters Swimming Association event in the western city of Matsuyama.She swam the race in 1hour,15minutes and 54seconds.
By comparison,the overall female world record holder completed the same distance in just under 15and a half minutes.But that swimmer,Katie Ledecky,is only 17years old.And Ms.Nagao.ka was not competing against her.In fact,Ms.Nagaoka was the only competitor in the 100-104year old category.Her race was not a race of speed but of endurance,or not giving up.
Breaking swimming records is nothing new to Ms.Nagaoka.So far she has broken 25records.But she began competing when she was much younger-at 88.
Ms.Nagaoka sufferred a knee injury in her 80s,so she began swimming to help her body recover.Since her first international swimming competition,she hasn't looked back,except maybe to see if her competition is catching up.
In 2002.at a masters swim meet in New Zealand,Ms.Nagaoka took the bronze medal in the 50-meter backstroke.In 2004,she won three silver medals at an Italian swim meet.
Masters swimming is a special class of competitive swimming to promote health and friendship among participants.Swimmers compete within age groups of five years.
Japan has a large number of people who live beyond 100years old.Until she passed away this month,the oldest person in the world was also from Japan.Misao Okawa was born in 1 898.She said her secrets for longevity,or long life,were good genes,regular sleep,sushi and exercise.

8.The launch of the UK's biggest online university venture has the potential to"revolutionise conventional models of formal education"and keep UK ahead in the global race to deliver the best education,says universities minister David Willetts.
The FutureLearn project will see more than 20 institutions enter the global market to offer massive open online courses,or Moocs.Until now,the US has led the way in the creation of Moocs,catering to an estimated 3 million learners worldwide with hundreds of courses from a range of top institutions.
Bath,Exeter,Birmingham,Edinburgh and Warwick are among the 21 UK universities that have signed up.The British Library,British Museum and British Council will also make material available to students.The venture,set up by the Open University,is a response to the rise of Moocs and will offer students a new and innovative way to access courses,says Martin Bean vice-chancellor of the Open University.Bean said,"Time and again we have seen the impact the Internet can have on industries-driving innovation and enhancing the customer experience.I have no doubt Moocs will do the same for education-offering people new and exciting ways to learn."
A senior academic at University College London-which has chosen not to be involved in FutureLearn-has questioned whether the Mooc model is the best road for universities to go down.Although free for students,online courses have some downsides.Stephen Caddick,professor at the university,says students want flexibility above all."Moocs are an online product of higher education currently experienced offline by a lot of students:inflexible",said Caddick."These courses are free to students,yet very expensive to develop for universities."
Simon Nelson,CEO of FutureLearn,said university partners see this opportunity as"money extremely well spent",helping them to boost their global profile and encourage experimentation and innovation within university departments.According to Nelson,FutureLearn will continue to expand its number of partners both in the UK and overseas,as well as develop its commercial model,which in the future could see students paying to take exams and purchase extra course material.
