31、 choose a paragraph more than once.Each paragraph ismarked with a letter.Answer the questions by marking the correspondingletter on Answer Sheet 2.How Work Will Change When Most of Us Live to 100How Work Will Change When Most of Us Live to 100AA Today in the United States there are 72,000 centenaria

32、ns（百岁老人）.Worldwide,probably 450,000.If current trends continue,then by 2050there will be more than a million in the US alone.According to the workof Professor James Vaupel and his co-researchers,50%of babies born inthe US in 2007 have a life expectancy of 104 or more.Broadly the sameholds for the UK

33、,Germany,France,Italy and Canada,and for Japan 50%of 2007 babies can expect to live to 107.BB Understandably,there are concerns about what this means for publicfinances given the associated health and pension challenges.Thesechallenges are real,and society urgently needs to address them.But itis als

34、o important to look at the wider picture of what happens when somany people live for 100 years.It is a mistake to simply equate longevity（长寿）with issues of old age.Longer lives have implications for allof life,not just the end of it.CC Our view is that if many people are living for longer,and are he

35、althierfor longer,then this will result in an inevitable redesign of work andlife.When people live longer,they are not only older for longer,butalso younger for longer.There is some truth in the saying that“70 isthe new 60”or“40 the new 30.”If you age more slowly over a longertime period,then you ar

36、e in some sense younger for longer.DD But the changes go further than that.Take,for instance,the age atwhich people make commitments such as buying a house,getting married,having children,or starting a career.These are all fundamentalcommitments that are now occurring later in life.In 1962,50%of Ame

37、ricanswere married by age 21.By 2014,that milestone（里程碑）had shifted toage 29.EE While there are numerous factors behind these shifts,one factor issurely a growing realization for the young that they are going to livelonger.Options are more valuable the longer they can be held.So if youbelieve you wi

38、ll live longer,then options become more valuable,and earlycommitment becomes less attractive.The result is that the commitmentsthat previously characterized the beginning of adulthood are now beingdelayed,and new patterns of behavior and a new stage of life are emergingfor those in their twenties.FF

39、 Longevity also pushes back the age of retirement,and not only forfinancial reasons.Yes,unless people are prepared to save a lot more,our calculations suggest that if you are now in your mid-40s,then youare likely to work until your early 70s;and if you are in your early 20s,there is a real chance y

40、ou will need to work until your late 70s or possiblyeven into your 80s.But even if people are able to economically supporta retirement at 65,over thirty years of potential inactivity is harmfulto cognitive（认知的）and emotional vitality.Many people may simply notwant to do it.GG And yet that does not me

41、an that simply extending our careers isappealing.Just lengthening that second stage of full-time work may securethe financial assets needed for a 100-year life,but such persistent workwill inevitably exhaust precious intangible assets such as productiveskills,vitality,happiness,and friendship.HH The

42、 same is true for education.It is impossible that a single shotof education,administered in childhood and early adulthood,will be ableto support a sustained,60-year career.If you factor in the projectedrates of technological change,either your skills will become unnecessary,or your industry outdated

43、.That means that everyone will,at some pointin their life,have to make a number of major reinvestments in theirskills.II It seems likely,then,that the traditional three-stage life willevolve into multiple stages containing two,three,or even more differentcareers.Each of these stages could potentiall

44、y be different.In one thefocus could be on building financial success and personal achievement,in another on creating a better work/life balance,still another onexploringandunderstandingoptionsmorefully,orbecominganindependent producer,yet another on making a social contribution.Thesestages will spa

45、n sectors,take people to different cities,and providea foundation for building a wide variety of skills.JJ Transitions between stages could be marked with sabbaticals（休假）as people find time to rest and recharge their health,re-invest in theirrelationships,or improve their skills.At times,these break

46、s andtransitions will be self-determined,at others they will be forced asexisting roles,firms,or industries cease to exist.KK A multi-stage life will have profound changes not just in how youmanage your career,but also in your approach to life.An increasinglyimportant skill will be your ability to d

47、eal with change and even welcomeit.A three-stage life has few transitions,while a multi-stage life hasmany.That is why being self-aware,investing in broader networks offriends,and being open to new ideas will become even more crucial skills.LL These multi-stage lives will create extraordinary variet

48、y acrossgroups of people simplybecause there are somany ways ofsequencing thestages.More stages mean more possible sequences.MM With this variety will come the end of the close association of ageand stage.In a three-stage life,people leave university at the same timeand the same age,they tend to sta

49、rt their careers and family at the sameage,they proceed through middle management all roughly the same time,and then move into retirement within a few years of each other.In amulti-stage life,you could be an undergraduate at 20,40,or 60;a managerat 30,50,or 70;and become an independent producer at a

50、ny age.NN Current life structures,career paths,educational choices,andsocial norms are out of tune with the emerging reality of longer lifespans.The three-stage life of full-time education,followed by continuous work,and then complete retirement may have worked for our parents or evengrandparents,bu
