Never before in history has there been a time with so many people living to be over 100 years old. As the quality of life rises, we have more and more pensioners reaching even further beyond 100. On Wednesday, Louise Jean Signore celebrated her 107th birthday!
历史上从未有过如此多的人活到100岁以上。随着生活质量的提高，领取养老金的人越来越多，甚至超过了100岁。周三，路易斯·珍·西格尔庆祝了她107岁的生日!
The woman living in the Bronx in New York attributes her long life to a peculiar reason, one you wouldn’t necessarily expect to hear. No, it’s not just eating healthy or having lots of close friends. According to Louise Jean, her secret is staying single. She told the media: “I think the secret of 107: I never got married. I think that’s the secret. My sister says, ‘I wish I never got married.’
住在纽约布朗克斯区(Bronx)的这位女士把自己长寿的原因归结为一个奇特的原因，一个你未必会想到听到的原因。不，不只是吃得健康或者有很多亲密的朋友。路易丝·珍说，她的秘诀是保持单身。她在接受媒体采访时说:“我认为107岁的秘诀是:我从未结过婚。我想这就是秘密。我妹妹说:“我希望我从来没有结过婚。”

Louise Jean’s sister is almost as old as she is — she is 102. So, naturally, a lot of Internet users were wondering just how much genetics had to do with the two women’s longevity.
露易丝·珍的妹妹几乎和她一样大——102岁。因此，很自然地，许多互联网用户想知道这两位女性的长寿与基因有多大的关系。
