But recent findings offer good news for older people and for people who worried about getting older.Researchers found that people b
24、ecome happier and experience less worry after they reach the age of 50. In fact,they said,by the age of 85,people are happier with their life than they were when they were 18 years old.The findings came from a survey(调查) of more than 340,000 adults in the US. The Gallup Organization questioned them
25、by telephone in 2008.At that time,the people were between the ages of 18 and 85.The researchers asked questions about emotions like happiness,sadness and worry. They also asked about mental or emotional stress. Arthur Stone in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Science at Stony Brook Univer
26、sity in New York led the study. His team found that levels of stress were highest among adults between the ages of 22 and 25.The findings showed that stress levels dropped sharply after people reached their fifties. Happiness was highest among the youngest adults and those in their early seventies.
27、The people werent likely to report negative emotions they were in their seventies and eighties.The study also showed that men and women have similar emotional patterns as they grow older. However,women at all ages reported more sadness,stress and worry than men. The findings appeared in the Proceedi
28、ngs of the National Academy of Sciences.Researchers said they didnt know why happiness increases as people get older.

29、.Professor Stone said the emotional patterns could be linked to changes in how people see the world,or maybe even changes in brain chemistry.The researchers also considered possible influences like having young children,being unemployed or being single. But they found that influences like these did
30、not affect the levels of happiness and wellbeing related to age.28How many people were involved in this survey? AMore than 340,000 adults. BLess than 314,000 adults. CMore than 340 adults.

CWomen at all ages reported more sadness,stress and worry than men.
