During World War II, Shelley Mydans and her husband Carl were captured. But despite spending two years as prisoners, both Mydanses survived and lived long and productive lives. The Mydanses' story was narrated in The Longevity(长寿)Project, a book that summarizes an 80-year study based on health data collected from 1,500 people. Its authors came to an unlikely conclusion. ____1____

The Mydanses appeared to turn their experience into a source of motivation. They didn't see their stress as meaningless. ____2____And this ability to think about the hard things we go through as ultimately beneficial seems to be important.

____3____They are often regarded as the necessary ingredients for a long and healthy life. But these oversimplifications tend to prioritize action over attitude. While day-to-day habits matter, a person's approach to life-the way he or she reacts to hardship-is the more important side of the longevity coin.

Faced with difficult times, lots of people form unhealthy habits that can be hard to kick. ____4____ Experts say one quality consistently tops the list. In terms of personality characteristics, the strongest predictor of a long life was being high on conscientiousness(认真).Conscientiousness refers to someone who is a little worried, organized and persevering in their pursuits.

Being worried all the time is a problem, but a little worrying-when you're thinking ahead and working through scenarios-can help you to be better prepared. Conscientious worriers tend to put their worry to good use. ____5____Their worrying is productive, not pointless. They tend to avoid sources of undue risk and adopt healthy habits. All of these tendencies promote a long and healthy life.

A. Instead, it seemed to fuel them.

B. Eat right, exercise, and avoid stress.

C. They commit their time and efforts to things that matter.

D. They make choices or changes in response to their concerns.

E. Most people are passionate and engaged after living through wars.

F. Many people who lived through hard times went on to live long lives.

G. However, certain qualities seem to safeguard some people from such habits.

【答案】1. F    2.A    3. B    4.G    5. D
