In fact, some elderly people are quite happy to 65 their age, especially if they feel they look young 66 their age. Nevertheless, it is not very wise to ask a(n) 67 question like ―How old are you?‖if elderly people want to talk about their age, and perhaps receive a compliment on how young they look, they may easily 68 the topic themselves, and ask the other person to 69

In 1784,at the end of the American Revolutionary War,a heavily armed ship wasbound for the port of New Orleans.On board was a fortune in Spanish Silver Dollars.Hundreds of thousands of them were loaded for the trip to New Orleans,yet not a singleone arrived.With no survivors from the ill-fated voyage,historians can only guess at whathappened.Some say powerful storms took her down while others speculate it was treasurehungry pirates(海盗）。Whatever happened,the secret-along with a treasure valued near＄100,000,000 in today's dollars-was sent to a watery gravesome 300 feet below theocean's surface.

9.Eating an apple a day doesn' t keep the doctor away, but it does reduce the amount of trips youmake to the drug store per year. That ' s according to a new study that investigates whether there's any truth in the old saying.A team of researchers led by Dr Matthew Davis, of the University of Michigan School ofNursing,asked 8,399 participants to answer survey questions about diet and health. A total of 753were apple eaters, consuming at least 149g of raw apple per day. The remaining 7,646 were classedas non-apple eaters. When both groups answered questions on trips to the doctor and trips to thedrug store per year,the apple eaters were found to be 27% less likely to visit the druggist for drugs.Trips to the doctor were not significantly affected by apple consumption, though. "Evidence doesnot support that an apple a day keeps the doctor away. However, the small number of US adultswho eat an apple a day does appear to use fewer prescription medications," the study concludes.Apple eaters were also found to be less likely to smoke and be more likely to have a highereducational attainment than non-apple eaters. While apples do not compete with oranges, theydocontain some immune (免疫的) system-increasing vitamin C, which may be why apple-eatersvisit the druggist less. With over 8mg of vitamin C per medium-sized fruit, an apple can provideroughly 14% your daily recommended intake.Previous studies have also linked apple consumption to a lower risk of Type 2 diabetes (二型糖尿病) ,improved lung function and a lower risk of colon (结肠) cancer.What can be described as the writing style of this passage?
