answer to each of the questions(63-70) There are many theories of aging, but virtually all fall into the category of being hypotheses with a minimum of supporting evidence One viewpoint is that aging occurs as the body's organ systems become less efficient Thus failures in the immune system, hormonal system, and nervous system could all produce characteristics that we associate with aging Following a different vein, many current researchers are looking for evidence at the cellular and sub cellular level It has been shown that cells such as human fibroblasts (generalized tissue cells) grown in culture divide only a limited number of times and then die (Only cancer cells seem immortal in this respect) Fibroblast cells from an embryo divide more times than those taken from an adult Thus some researchers believe that aging occurs at the cellular level and is part of the cell's genetic makeup Any event that disturbs the cell's genetic machinery such as mutation, damaging chemicals in the cell's environment, or loss of genetic material, could cause cells to lose their ability to divide and thus bring on aging Other theories of aging look at different processes Chronological aging refers to the passage of time since birth and is usually measured in years While chronological age can be useful in estimating the average status of a large group of people, it is a poor indicator of an individual person's status because there is a tremendous amount of variation from one individual to the next in regard to the rate at which biological age changes occur For example, on the average, aging results in people losing much of their ability to perform strenuous activities, yet some elderly individuals are excellent marathon runners Another type of aging is cosmetic aging, which consists of changes in outward appearance with advancing age This includes changes in the body and changes in other aspects of a person's appearance, such as the style of hair and clothing, the type of eyeglasses, and the use of a hearing aid Like chronological aging, it is frequently used to estimate the degree to which other types of aging have occurred However, it is an inaccurate indicator for either purpose because of variation among individuals and because a person's appearance is affected by many factors that are not part of aging, including illness, poor nutrition, and exposure to sunlight 63 What is the best title for this passage?

III Essay writing It is more important to spend public money on promoting a healthy lifestyle in order to prevent illness than to spend it on the treatment of people who are already ill To what extent you agree or disagree? Sample Answer band 8.0+ Many people believe that instead of being spent on curing the sick, public money should be used for illness prevention by encouraging people’s living in a healthy way Personally, I totally agree with this point of view, and supporting arguments will be presented in the following essay There are many reasons why illnesses should be prevented rather than be cured Firstly, it is a fact that many of them nowadays are caused by unhealthy lifestyles and habits For example, those who consume too much fast food and lead a sedentary lifestyle are likely to suffer from the risks of obesity and cardiovascular diseases like heart attack and heart failure People can minimize the chance of getting these illnesses if they actively change their eating practice and physical activity on a regular basis Secondly, scientists nowadays still have yet to find medical treatment for some incurable diseases like HIV, AIDS, different types of cancers and especially the Covid-19 epidemic Therefore, a more ideal approach, in this case, is apparently trying to lower the number of infected cases, which can clearly alleviate the burden on the patients themselves and their families CVA – HSG lan 17 Furthermore, prevention is less costly than cure in the long term Obviously, effective preventive solutions stop people from contracting acute diseases, which will lead to fewer sick people being hospitalized This not only reduces patients’ spending on hospitalization, drugs, and other medical fees but also lowers government expenditure on healthcare services For example, during the raging outbreak of Covid19 these days, worldwide authorities are sparing no effort to vaccinate their citizens with the hope of halting the spread of the pandemic This means the amount of public money saved can be, otherwise, reallocated to improving other fields of the society, such as education, economy, and infrastructure, as well as promoting sustainable social development and people’s well-being All things considered, I wholeheartedly agree that prevention is better than cure and that the state budget should be spent on preventive solutions, for the advantages given above 334 words – Band 8.0+ – Written by TalkFirst!
