三、阅读理解
??
Aging
brings
wrinkles,
sagging
bodies
and
frustrating
forgetfulness.
But
getting
older
is
not
bad
for
many
people.
Mounting
evidence
suggests
aging
may
be
a
key
to
happiness.
There
is
conflicting
research
on
the
subject,
however,
and
experts
say
it
may
all
boil
down
to
this:
The
attitude
is
everything.
???
Older
adults
tend
to
be
more
optimistic
and
have
a
more
positive
outlook
on
life.
The
big
question
is
why
seniors
are
happier.
A
recent
study
suggests
one
reason:
Older
adults
remember
the
past
through
happy
memories.
Aging
can
bring
more
cheer
as
people
become
more
comfortable
with
themselves
and
their
roles
in
society.
The
older
adults
said
they
were
enjoying
more
time
with
their
family,
spending
more
time
on
hobbies
and
having
greater
financial
security
and
did
not
have
to
work.
???
But
others
are
doubtful
about
the
link
between
happiness
and
growing
older.
???
"The
notion
that
those
in
old
age
are
happier
is
misleading,"
said
Richard
Easterlin,
a
professor
of
economics
at
the
University
of
Southern
California.
"It
is
based
on
comparing
people
of
different
ages
who
are
the
same
in
terms
of
income,
health
and
family
life."
Easterlin
added,
"When
you
take
account
of
the
fact
that
older
people
who
have
lower
income
than
the
younger
are
less
healthy,
and
more
likely
to
be
living
alone,
then
you
will
find
it
hard
to
accept
that
they
are
happier."
???
In
fact,
scientists
have
found
that
as
people
age,
their
health
declines
and
social
networks
disappear
as
their
friends
die,
which
can
make
the
elderly
less
happy.
???
Even
if
one
does
give
in
to
age's
dark
side,
health
and
happiness
don't
always
go
hand-in-hand.
It's
all
about
the
attitude.
Research
by
the
University
of
Chicago's
Yang
suggests
that
the
attitude
to
life
and
happiness
is
partly
shaped
by
the
era
in
which
a
person
was
born.
It
turns
out
that
individuals
who
adapt
the
best
to
changes
also
have
the
highest
expected
levels
of
happiness.
???
Despite
the
conflicting
findings
about
aging
and
happiness,
the
good
news
is
that
there
doesn't
appear
to
be
a
limit
to
how
much
happiness
one
can
achieve
in
one's
life.
"Most
people
desire
happiness"
Easterlin
said.
"To
my
knowledge,
no
one
has
identified
a
limit
to
attainable
happiness."
