Life Expectancy in the Last Hundred Years
A hundred years ago,life expectancy in developed countries was about 47; in the early 21st century, men in the United States and the United Kingdom can expect to live to about 74, women to about 80, and these【C1】______are rising all the time.

Genetically ,we should all be able to live to about 85 but【C12】______people do live longer today, there are still some big killers around that are preventing us from consistently reaching that age.
