    Read the following text and answer the following questions
    Positive thinkers are more likely to live longer than negative thinkers. This is according to a
    combination of studies conducted by the Boston University School of Medicine into the health
    of people in the USA. Researchers looked at data on the health of 70,000 female nurses and
    1,500 male military veterans. They discovered that people who were optimists (people who
    thought positively) were more likely to live to the age of 85. They said people who were more
    pessimistic (those who thought negatively) were 11-15 per cent less likely to live to that age.
    The researchers believe that optimists (positive thinkers) found it easier to manage stress
    than pessimists (negative thinkers).

    7
    Participants in the two studies answered questions in a survey. The questions assessed
    their levels of optimism. The surveys matched these levels with the participants' overall level
    of health. They were also asked about their levels of exercise, their diets, as well as how
    much they smoked and drank. Professor Lewina Lee said: "Our findings speak to the
    possibility that raising levels of optimism may promote longevity and healthy ageing." She
    had some advice for pessimists who might want to live longer. The advice was to, "imagine
    a future in which everything has turned out well". She urged people to increase levels of
    optimism. She said it was healthier for people to look on the bright side of life.

    How to be more optimistic


    When faced with what’s happening in the world today, it can be hard to be
    optimistic. Still, it’s possible to choose a more positive outlook. While there are
    some factors that are out of your control, the good news is that it’s possible to
    develop a more optimistic outlook as adults.
    How can you make the transition to a more positive outlook? Experts say that it
    helps to visualize your best possible self. Sit down and write down what you
    would like to happen next week, next month and next year. Dozens of studies
    show that imagining the best possible future for yourself is good exercise for your
    positivity muscles and can actually boost your levels of optimism.
    It’s also important to accept that sometimes you will be disappointed. No one can
    avoid disappointment forever, so if you have to choose between positive
    expectations that are occasionally proven wrong or negative expectations that are
    occasionally proven right, you can choose the former. How often have you spent
    time predicting negative events that never actually happened?
    Perspective is crucial when it comes to how you view the world. Whenever you
    have an extremely negative prediction, you can choose to intentionally counter it
    with an extremely positive one. This will help you to find some balance and put
    things in perspective.
