人类如今更注重均衡饮食,也有更好的生活条件与医疗环境,因此预期寿命逐渐延长。不过荷兰研究人员表示,人类寿命其实是有最高“上限”的,生活方式再健康,寿命也不会无限延长。
Researchers claim to have discovered the maximum age 'ceiling' for human lifespan.
研究人员称,他们发现了人类寿命的上限。
Despite growing life expectancy because of better nutrition, living conditions and medical care, Dutch scientists say our longevity cannot keep extending forever.
荷兰科学家表示,虽然营养条件、生活环境和医疗水平的进步提高了人类的预期寿命,但是人类的寿命不会无限延长。
Women can only live to a maximum of 115.7 years, they said, while men can only hope for 114.1 years at the most.
科学家称,女性最多能活到115.7岁,而男性则为114.1岁。
The research by statisticians at Tilburg and Rotterdam's Erasmus universities said however there were still some people who had bent the norm, like French woman Jeanne Calment who died at the ripe old age of 122 years and 164 days in 1997.
但是,蒂尔堡大学和鹿特丹伊拉斯姆斯大学两校统计学家的研究表示,还是有一些人突破了这一极值。比如,来自法国的雅娜•卡尔芒就活了122岁零164天,于1997年去世。
Lifespan is the term used to describe how long an individual lives, while life expectancy is the average duration of life that individuals in an age group can expect to have - a measure of societal wellbeing.
