Some experts say that scientific advances will one day enable humans to last tens of years beyond what is now seen as the natural limit of the human life span. I think we are knocking at the door of immortality (永生) , said Michael Zey, a Montclair State University business professor and author of two books on the future. I think by 2075 we will see it and thats a conservative estimate(保守旳估計(jì)). At the conference in San Francisco, Donald Louria, a professor at New Jersey Medical School in Newark said advances in using genes as well as nanotechnology(納米技術(shù))make it likely that humans will live in the future beyond what has been possible in the past. There is a great push so that people can live from 120 to 180 years, he said. Some have suggested that there is no limit and that people could live to 200 or 300 or 500 years. However, many scientists who specialize in ageing are doubtful about it and say the human body is just not designed to last about 120 years. Even with healthier lifestyles and less disease, they say failure of the brain and organs will finally lead all humans to death.Scientists also differ on what kind of life the super aged might live. It remains to be seen if you pass 120, you know; could you be healthy enough to have good quality of life? said Leonard Peon, director of the University of Georgia Gerontology Centre At present people who could get to that point are not in good health at alL 1.

That way work would be both painless and fun. Or, so we imagine. Well, in fact it isnt quite as simple as that. Yes, it is true that being the boss has its satisfactions and that you can arrange your working hours freely if you own your own small business. But in those early years of starting your own business, you shouldnt think of a free day, not to mention flying off for a months vacation. It is not unusual for new business owners to work seventy or eighty hours a week, and if there is a day off, that day might need to be devoted to accounting(算賬).But this negative picture doesnt destroy the beautiful hopes. The possibility of getting something wonderful in return-both material and mental-continues to drive that large number of people who start up small businesses each year in the United States. 1.
