17、kable organization was a deeply personal experience. Seven years ago, my father was in the end-of-life stage.

18、g the emotions that come with knowing a loved one is at the end of their life can be overwhelming. Having a nurse with us made it easier to deal with these feelings.

CA new study from a team at the University of Pittsburgh has discovered blood-based markers that can reveal someones biological age, which could help treat various health problems that can happen as our bo

25、dies get older. We have our actual agesthe number of years weve been aliveand then we have biological ages, which is related to the wear and tear on cells and organs. Knowing this biological age can help us work out disease risk, tailor treatments, and better understand the different rates at which

26、our bodies break down. “Imagine two people aged 65,” says Aditi Gurkar, a geriatrician at the University of Pittsburgh. “One rides a bike to work and goes skiing on the weekends and the other cant climb ad flight of stairs.”“They have the same age, but different biological ages. Why do these two peo

27、ple age differently?” To help answer this question, the researchers enlisted the help of 196 elderly adults, split into two groups: one group of volunteers aged 75 or older who were classified as healthy agers, and the other group of volunteers aged 65-75 who were classified as rapid agers. The heal

28、thy agers were able to climb a flight of stairs or walk for 15 minutes without resting, while the rapid agers had to take breaks through each activity. The distinction gave the study team the chance to look at differences between the groups in metabolites (代谢物) : small chemical substances left by bi

29、ological processes in the body. They can be used as evidence for which processes are happening, and how well they re running. “We chose to look at metabolites because they are dynamic,” says Gurkar. “They change in real time to reflect our current health and how we feel, and we have the power to inf

30、luence them through our lifestyle, diet and environment.”With more research, it might be possible to develop a blood test for quick and easy biological age assessment. That test could then be run on people at earlier ages, when changes to molecular processes are easier to modify. 28. What do the und

34、th (猛象).“This is probably the most significant step in the early stages of this project,” said George Church, a geneticist at Harvard University. The woolly mammoth was extinct thousands of years ago. Church has been working to bring the mammoth and other extinct species back to life using the lates

35、t cloning and genetic (基因的) engineering techniques. And now the company says scientists have for the first time created stem cells for the mammoths closest living relative, Asian elephants. The achievement is still far from the ultimate goal of creating herds (牧群) of giant hairy beasts, but Church s

36、aid, “Its a major step.

37、racters of mammoths, such as heavy coats and the layers of fat that enabled them to survive in cold climates. Some scientists have different ideas. “What are you going to get out of this?” asked Karl Flessa, a professor of geosciences at the University of Arizona. “If you re going to release a herd

38、into the Arctic tundra, is that herd going to go marching off to its second extinction in the face of global warming?”But Church and his colleagues defended the project. Church said the woolly mammoth program could lead to new ways to protect endangered species like Asian elephants by expanding thei

39、r habitat and helping scientists study the animals. Reintroducing elephants with woolly mammoth characters could also help fight global warming by restoring ecosystems in ways that would help reduce the amount of carbon being released into the atmosphere. 32.
