Last week, the group of scientists said they had identified important biological qualities in some bat species. The grou
11、p studied bat chromosomes(染色体), a line of genes found in the nucleus of cells. The scientists were most interested in structures connected to the ends of the chromosomes. They are called telomeres. Telomeres protect the ends of chromosomes, which shorten each time a cell divides. Scientists believe
12、this shortening process causes cells to break down. They say this is what causes aging. The European researchers studied 493 bats from four bat species. The group used information that had been gathered over more than 60 years. Of these animals, the greater mouse- eared bat generally lived the longe
13、st, an average of 37 years. The scientists said this and a related species, which are grouped together under the name Myotis had telomeres that did not shorten with age. The scientists findings suggest that these bats cells have the ability to maintain and repair their telomeres. This, they said, he

21、life satisfaction, while middleaged adults (age 40 to 64) more accurately predicted how they would feel in the future.Adults of 65 and older, however, were far more likely to underestimate their future life satisfaction.Not only did they feel more satisfied than they thought they would, the older pe
22、ssimists seemed to suffer a lower ratio (比率) of disability and death for the study period. “We observed that being too optimistic in predicting a better future than actually observed was associated with a greater risk of disability and a greater risk of death within the following decade,” wrote Frie

Lang and his colleagues believed that people who were pessimistic about their future may be more careful about their actions than people who expected a rosy future. “Seeing a dark future may encourage positive evaluations of the actual s

Surprisingly, compared with those in poor health or who had low incomes, respondents who enjoyed good health or income were associated with expecting a greater decline.Also, the researchers said that higher income was
25、related to a greater risk of disability. The authors of the study noted that there were limitations to their conclusions.Illness, medical treatment and personal loss could also have driven health outcomes. However, the researchers said a pattern was clear.“We found that from early to late adulthood,
26、 individuals adapt their expectations of future life satisfaction from optimistic, to accurate, to pessimistic,” the authors concluded. 27According to the study, who made the most accurate prediction of their future life satisfaction?
