Conversation One M: Today, we have Professor McKay on our morningtalk show. Good morning, Professor McKay. I’veheard that you and your team have just completed areport on old age. W: That’s right. (1) Well, the report basically looksinto the various beliefs that people hold about old age and tries to verify them. M: And what do you think your report can achieve? W: (2) We hope that it will somehow help people to change their feelings about old age. Theproblem is that far too many of us believe that most old people are poor, lonely, and unhappy.As a result, we tend to find old people, as a group, unattractive. And this is very dangerousfor our society. M: But surely we cannot escape the fact that many old people are lonely and many are sick. W: No, we can’t. (3) But we must also remember that the proportion of such people is nogreater among the 60-70 age group than among the 50-60 age group.

M: So that someone who enjoys new experiences, travel, education, and so on in his middleyears will usually continue to do so into old age? W: Exactly. 1.
