人类可以长生不死吗?
The average life expectancy in the UK has been steadily increasing since records began in 1840, but the fact remains that the human body gives up at around the 100 year mark - so could that change?
英国人的平均寿命自1840年以来一直保持稳定增长,但事实是,人类的寿命始终维持在100岁左右,那么这点可以改变吗?
The team turns to the east African naked mole rat, which enjoys ten times the lifespan of other species, to see if they can shed any light on the subject.
科学家们将目光转向东非的裸鼢鼠,想看看能否在它们身上找到一些答案。裸鼢鼠的寿命是其他品种的10倍。
Dr Chris Faulkes, of Queen Mary University of London, asks whether - given the unique protein in their skin that makes it super stretchy and means cancer is virtually unheard of - the mole rat actually holds the secret to a long life.
伦敦大学玛丽皇后学院的克里斯•福克斯博士想知道裸鼢鼠身上是否有长寿的秘密。因为它们的皮肤中含有独特的蛋白质,可以保持超强弹性,也不会得癌症。
未来的天气怎么样?
Britain's famously uNPRedictable climate may soon be a thing of the past, according to weatherman and meteorologist Peter Gibbs, who argues that we can expect a hotter, drier south, and a warmer, wetter north.
英国的天气是出了名的阴晴不定,不过据气象预报员兼气象学家皮特•吉布斯称,这也许很快就会成为历史,他认为南方天气可能更热、更干燥,而北方天气更加温暖潮湿。
