Some people are super-agers, who are over the age of 80, but have the brain of much younger people.Scientists know that parts of the brain become smaller in size with age. But the change of the super-agers goes much more slowly. In her recent study, Emily Rogalski, a neuroscientist (神经科学家), showed that super-agers have young brains. The area of the brain for attention and memory (记忆) was shown to be thicker in super-agers. When we look at a super-agers brain, we see that it looks more like a 50-year-old brain than an 80-year-old one.Scientists say super-agers have several things in common, including an active lifestyle. Most of them like travelling and playing sports. They always enjoy reading. They usually have healthy relationships and spend time with friends.Growing old, she adds, does not have to be depressing (令人沮丧的) and sad. Perhaps, if we expect a little better from ourselves, well understand that not all getting old makes us sad.Rogalski said jokingly that super-agers do not grow on trees- meaning they are special and few. She says she wants to find out why a super-agers mind is working so well and not getting old as quickly as most. The science behind super-agers is a new, but growing field. It attracts many scientists. Scientists in the research offer the advice to us: Stay active. Learn new things. Challenge yourself. Develop healthy relationships.（1）Super-agers are people _. A . over 80 with older brainsB . over 80 with younger brainsC . under 80 with older brainsD . under 80 with younger brains（2）This passage is probably from a _.

A . super-agers are common and very easy to find in our livesB . scientists have found out why a super-agers mind works so well.C . few super-agers like traveling, playing sports and doing readingD . more and more scientists may get into the study of the super-agers19. （8分）阅读理解Michael Perham (born on 16th March, 1992 in Hertfordshire, England) is a boy who, at the age of 17, became the youngest person to sail around the world in the 50 feet racing boat, completing his journey on 7th August, 2009.
