Yours，

Do you have the experience of digging out your suitcase, deciding what to bring and being afraid that you’ve forgotten something?1.. Hope they can transform the way you pack.
Keep a Basket Handy
Do you wait until the last minute to pack? Keep a basket in your bedroom, living room, or bath room that you can use to throw in items you’ll need to pack as you come across them. 2.. Besides, you can just put the contents of the basket into your suitcase if you are in a hurry to leave for the airport.
Buy Wrinkle-free Clothing
You won’t need to worry about carefully packing your items of clothing if they’re made from wrinkle-free materials. 3.. You’ll still look fresh and bright when you are in them at your destination.
Keep Old Packing Lists
Chances are that you end up taking trips that require you to pack similar items. Keep old packing lists from former vacations to the beach, ski resort, and city—that way, you’ll always have a list of at least the basics. 4.. So you don’t need to waste your effort to remember where you left your hand-written packing lists.
Schedule a Packing Time
Time can slip away from you before a trip-you may be caught up at work, at home, or be occupied with other responsibilities of daily life.5.. That way, you will not need to do your packing frantically (狂乱地) from the last minute to 1 o’clock on the day you leave.
A. Buy necessary stuff when you arrive.
B. That’s why I’ve distilled (提炼) the art of packing down to some essential tips.
C. This makes you less likely to forget the stuff.
D. Rolling your clothes is the best way to save space for the suitcase.
E. The best way to do this is to save them on your computer.
F. Just ball them up or put them at the bottom of the suitcase.
G. Determine a night well in advance of departure to pack.
Why do some people live to be older than others? You know the standard explanations: keeping a moderate diet, engaging in regular exercise, etc. But what effect does your personality have on your longevity（长寿）? Do some kinds of personalities lead to longer lives? A new study in the Journal of the American Geriatrics Society looked at this question by examining the personality characteristics of 246 children of people who had lived to be at least 100.
The study shows that those living the longest are more outgoing, more active and less neurotic (神经质的) than other people. Long-living women are also more likely to be sympathetic and cooperative than women with a normal life span. These findings are in agreement with what you would expect from the evolutionary theory: those who like to make friends and help others can gather enough resources to make it through tough times. Interestingly, however, other characteristics that you might consider advantageous had no impact on whether study participants were likely to live longer. Those who were more self-disciplined, for instance, were no more likely to live to be very old. Also, being open to new ideas had no relationship to long life, which might explain all those bad-tempered old people who are fixed in their ways.
Whether you can successfully change your personality as an adult is the subject of a longstanding psychological debate. But the new paper suggests that if you want long life, you should strive to be as outgoing as possible.
Unfortunately, another recent study shows that your mother’s personality may also help determine your longevity. That study looked at nearly 28,000 Norwegian mothers and found that those moms who were more anxious, depressed and angry were more likely to feed their kids unhealthy diets. Patterns of childhood eating can be hard to break when we’re adults, which may mean that kids of depressed moms end up dying younger. Personality isn’t destiny, and everyone knows that individuals can learn to change. But both studies show that long life isn’t just a matter of your physical health but of your mental health.

A. to investigate the role of exercise in living a long life

2.What does the author imply about outgoing and sympathetic people?
A. They are more likely to get over hardship.
B. They are better at negotiating an agreement.
C. They generally appear more resourceful.
D. They have a good understanding of evolution.
3.What finding of the study might prove somewhat out of our expectation？
A. Personality characteristics that prove advantageous actually vary with times.
B. Easy-going people can also live a relatively long life.
C. Readiness to accept new ideas helps one enjoy longevity.
D. Such personality characteristics as self-discipline have no effect on longevity.
4.What can we learn from the findings of the two new studies?
A. Anxiety and depression more often than not cut short one’s life span.
B. Health is in large part related to one’s lifestyle.
C. Personality plays a decisive role in how healthy one is.
D. Longevity results from a combination of mental and physical health.
