Three people say what they think ... 
:1. Our uniform is OK. I like the colours. grey and red. The only 
things I don't like are thet ie, because it's difficult to put on. 
and the skirt, because I prefer trousers. I think uniforms 
are a good idea. Everybody looks the same, and it's easy to 
get dressed in the morning - I don't need to think about 
what to wear. 
2 Our uniform is dark trousers and a white nylon top, a bit 
like a nurse's uniform. We can't wear anything over the 
uniform, so it's quite cold in the winter. and it gets dirty 
very easily because it's white. I'm not against uniforms. but 
my uniform just isn't practical! 
3 Our uniform is very simple - a dark blue jacket and trousers 
and a white shirt and tie. I like it, it's nice and comfortable. 
so I'm happy to wear it. And I think it's important that 
people can see where we are when they need help. 
b With a partner. say what the highlighted words mean .

Ecuad r 
Vileabamba, a small village in the Andes, is often called 'the Valley of Long Life'. What's its secret? Firstly, Vileabamba is not very hot or 
very cold - the temperature is usually between 18 and 27 degrees, and 
the air is very cleah. Secondly, people work hard in the fields, and do>a 
lot of exercise. Thirdly, their diet is very healthy- they eat a lot of fruit 
and vegetables, and they hardly ever eat meat or fish. The water they 
drink, from the river in Vileabamba, is very rich in minerals. They also 
have a good social life. In Vileabamba people say, 'The left leg and the 
right leg help you to be healthy, because they take you to your friends' 
homes.' 
Italy 
I n Ogliastra, a mountain region of Sardinia, one out of every 200 people lives to be 100, 
and they are normally very healthy, too. Most of 
the people in the villages work outside in their 
fields and with their animals. They have a healthy 
diet, wi th a lot of vegetables and not much meat 
or fish. They hardly ever take any medicine, but 
they usually drink a little grappa before they go 
to bed. 'Life is hard,' says Fortunato, who is a 
shepherd, 'but 1 am never stressed. I never read 
the newspaper - because I can't read very well.' 
Japan 
People i n Okinawa in Japan do not have big meals. They usually just have vegetables and fish, and often eat soya. Okinawans are very 
active, and they often work until they are 80 or more. But they also relax 
every day - they see friends and they meditate. Ushi, from Okinawa, is 
107. In t he evening she often dances with her daughter and has a glass 
of sake. 'l want to have a boyfriend,' she says. When journalists ask 
people from Okinawa 'What is your secret?' they answer, 'We are happy, 
we are always positive, and we are never in a hurry.'
