You can live longer and feel wonderful by following the top eight secrets to longevity(长寿) provided by America's leading experts, Franklin Williams.

1. EXERCISE: Studies show that 30 minutes of mild (not hard) exercise a day will increase your life span. This doesn't mean you have to run three miles or start high-jumping. Simple activities such as walking, gardening or taking exercise will work.

2. ENJOY PEOPLE: Contacts with family and friends help fight depression and stress. Studies show that people who socialize regularly live longer than loners. So join social clubs or church groups so that that you can laugh and share life's joys.

3. STAY MENTALLY ACTIVE: People who are not mentally active run the risk of shortening their lives through falls and other injuries, and not being able to take care of themselves. Read the newspaper, visit the public library, balance your checkbook without a calculator, exercise your brain by doing crossword puzzles.

4. DIET: The key words are "high-fiber, low fat." Cut back on red meat, salt, white flour, white sugar, alcohol and coffee. Start eating a balanced diet including lots of fruit, grains, raw(not ripe) vegetables and nuts.

5. MEDICATION MIX: As we age, we are more likely to take medicines. Sometimes this leads to over-medications, which can be disabling and even deadly. Ask your doctor if the drugs you take are really necessary. Make sure there is no danger of a bad drug interaction from your medications.

6. VOLUNTEER: Helping others increases your self-esteem and make you feel like a valuable contributor. Join a house of worship, visit an old folks home, ask your Chamber of Commerce for information on agencies that need volunteer help.

7. PRACTICE SAFELY: Always wear your car seat-belt. And remember, falls kill-and are especially dangerous for the elderly. Do a safety inspection of your home and put away anything you could trip over.

8. REGULAR CHECKUPS: Make CHECKUP for cancer, high blood pressure and other illnesses that threaten your longevity. By taking care of your health, you are taking the most important step in living a longer life.

1. Which of the following exercises will benefit your health as mentioned in the passage?

A. High-jumping. B. Marathon. C. Walking. D. Boxing.

2. Which of the following can't help keep your mind working?

A. Using a calculator.

Googlefight is a simple service available on the Internet which offers you the chance to compare two different items and see how many hits they get on the Google search engine. The seemingly simple device has proved invaluable to users, especially to help win arguments.

For example, imagine that you and your friends are arguing about who are the most popular music or movie stars, you can decide the argument by writing the names in the Googlefight boxes. Let’s say that you are arguing about Jackie Chan and Jet Li. You will quickly discover that Jet Li is mentioned 16 million times on Google pages, whereas Jackie Chan is mentioned a mere 12 million times! In this unscientific way, you can claim victory for one Star over another.

But teachers have come up with ways of using Googlefight which are much more useful from an academic point of view, particularly when it comes to studying languages. You can, for example, find out the frequency of two words with the same meaning, and deduce (推断) from the answers which one is more common. For example, let’s take the words “buy” and “purchase”, which mean the same thing (although “buy” is only a verb and “purchase” is both a verb and a noun). It is immediately clear from Googlefight that “buy” is much more commonly used, with a massive three and a half billion hits, compared to only one billion occurrences for the more formal word.

But the real value of Googlefight to the language learner is in determining which is the more common of two phrases. For example, “raining cats and dogs” is an old-fashioned English expression about the weather. Do English speakers still use it? Or are they more likely to say “pouring down”? Googlefight suggests the latter. “Pouring down” has 898,000 Google hits, whereas “raining cats and dogs” only has 326,000.

With phrases, it’s important to remember that you need to use quote marks to make the search more accurate. For example, if you type in the similar phrases “look after” and “take care of “ without quote marks, the second phrase seems to be more common, but with quote marks, the result is reversed.

1. What is Googlefight?

A. A fight between two people on Google.

B. A way to make sure you win an argument.

C. A website showing how many hits two different things have.

D. A list of all the websites on Google.

2. Language teachers find it useful because _______.

A. there are a lot of words on Googlefight

B. it can tell them which of the two words with the same meaning appears more often

C. some words mean the same thing

D. common words have a billion hits

3. What must you remember to do if you are checking phrases by Googlefight?

A. Make sure they mean be same thing.

B. Make sure they are different.

C. Remember to put quote marks round the phrase.

D. Don’t put quote marks round the phrase.

4. Which statement is NOT true according to the passage?

A. Googlefight is effective to determine the more common of two phrases.

B. Googlefight is a scientific way to decide an argument.

C. Quote marks can make the search more accurate.

D. Googlefight is invaluable to help win arguments.
