Most scientists who study old age think that the human body is【C1】________to live no longer than 120 years.【C2】________, 110 years is probably the longest that anyone could hope to live—if he or she is extremely healthy and lucky. Some scientists even say we can live as long as 130 years’. Yet, our cells simply cannot reproduce【C3】________. They wear out, and as a result, we get old and【C4】________die.
Even though we can’t live forever, we are living a【C5】________life than ever before. In 1900, the average American lifespan (寿命) was only 47 years, but today it is 75 years!

Now the chances of dying【C10】________are much lower and the chances of living long are much higher due to better diets and health care.
