3a. Listen, read the text and answer: How can you prolong your life? How much can you prolong your life?

American scientists have been examining 20,000 men and women for 10 years. Their findings are as follows:

1. 77 per cent of smokers die sooner than their peers. So, the more people smoke, the sooner they die.

2. 66 per cent of people who drink alcohol die young. So, the sooner you will start drinking, the less you will live.

3. People who eat fruit and vegetables at least 5 days a week prolong their life by 44 per cent. So, the more fruit and vegetables you eat, the longer you will live.

4. People who are physically fit prolong their life by 24 per cent. So, the more you exercise, the better for you.

5. All in all, the scientists calculated that those who exercise, eat fruit and vegetables and don't smoke or drink alcohol live 14 years longer than those who don't follow these rules. So, the sooner you understand it, the better and healthier your life will be.

Ответ:

You can prolong your life by not smoking, not drinking alcohol, eating fruit and vegetables at least 5 days a week, and being physically fit. Eating fruit and vegetables can prolong life by 44 per cent. Being physically fit can prolong life by 24 per cent. People who do all these things (exercise, eat well, don't smoke or drink alcohol) can live 14 years longer.

Перевод:

Вы можете продлить свою жизнь, если не будете курить, не будете употреблять алкоголь, будете есть фрукты и овощи не менее 5 дней в неделю и будете в хорошей физической форме. Употребление фруктов и овощей может продлить жизнь на 44 процента. Хорошая физическая форма может продлить жизнь на 24 процента. Люди, которые делают все это (занимаются спортом, хорошо питаются, не курят и не пьют алкоголь), могут прожить на 14 лет дольше.
