Are people less happy or more happy the older they get? If you answered more happy, then you were right, based on a study in 2008. It found that people usually become happier and experience less worry after age fifty. In fact, it found that by the age of eighty-five, people are happier with their life than they were at eighteen.
The results came from a Gallup survey of more than three hundred forty thousand adults in the United States in 2008. At that time, the people were between the ages of eighteen and eighty-five.
Arthur Stone in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Science at Stony Brook University in New York led the study. His team found that levels of stress were highest among adults between the ages of twenty-two and twenty-five. Stress levels dropped suddenly after people reached their fifties.
Happiness was highest among the youngest adults and those in their seventies. But t he people least likely to report feeling negative emotions* were those in their seventies and eighties.
The survey also found that men and women have similar emotional changes as they grow older. However, women at all ages reported more stress and worry than men did.
The researchers also considered possible influences like having young children, losing jobs. But they found influences like these did not affect* the levels of happiness related to* age.
So why would happiness increase with age? One reason is that, as people get older, they become more thankful for what they have and have better controlled of thei r emotions. They also spend less time thinking about bad experiences.

The volunteers who brought the nine-year-old to the orphanage* knew little about her. The streets where they found her had been her home for many years. Her parents were unknown. They had left her long ago.
At the orphanage, the girl, like all the children there, was taught to read and write. While she was studying at the orphanage, she learned something else -- to be independent*. At twenty-one, she left the orphanage and began work as a secretary.
And then, in 1975, while she was still working as a common secretary, something very unusual happened. She entered the Miss Hong Kong competition -- and won it. This was the turning point in her life. Now Mary Cheung was very popular in Hong Kong.
Mary entered the competition because she was full of ambitions* and because she wanted to show that orphanage girls could be something. Winning the competition gave her the chance to start a new life. This led her first into television and then to a business manager. When she was working as a manager, she had trouble with her reports. “My English just wasn’t good enough,” she said. Fortunately, she had a boy-friend (who later became her husband) to help her.
Mary studied management at Hong Kong Polytechnic and graduated in 1980. She started her own company in 1995. But she was still working hard to develop herself. She then studied for a Fine Arts degree at the University of Hong Kong. Her ambition was to teach arts in Hong Kong. Since 1987, she has spent a lot of her time on photography. She has held several exhibitions of her work in many places, including China, New Zealand and Paris. She still found time, however, to work on TV and for charity, to write for newspapers and bring up her family.
The girl from street has come a long way, but her journey is not finished yet.
33. Mary ______ when the volunteers found her.
A. was known well B. lived with her parents
C. had been homeless for many years D. was at school like all the children
34. ______ was the turning point in Mary’s life.
