process in monkeys could be the best proof yet that restricted diets might do the same for humans.“the big question in aging research is, will caloric restriction in species closely related to humans slow aging？” said richard weindruch, senior author of a paper appearing in the july 10 issue of science.this is the first clear demonstration that, in a primate species, we re inducing a slowdown of the aging process showing increased survival, resistance to disease, less brain atrophy and less muscle loss.“this predicts humans would respond similarly，” added weindruch, professor of medicine at the university of wisconsin and an investigator at the veterans hospital in madison. another expert noted that, despite some highly publicized studies in certain species, the link between restricted eating and longer lifespan has been far from proven.“the idea that dietary restriction extends lifespan in all species is not true. many strains of rats and mice do not respond. in some strains, it s actually deleterious，” explained felipe sierra, director of the biology of aging program at the us national institute on aging (nia), which supported the new study. “the fact that it doesnt work in some mice but it does seem to work in monkeys is surprising and it gives us hope.”but there s a larger question: how to change humans increasingly lax eating habits. “this_finding_doesnt_give_me_hope_that_humans_are_going_to_go_into_dietary_restriction，” added marianne grant, a registered dietitian at texas a&m health science center coastal bend health education

people and land uses, and it accelerated the inherent instability of urban lifeby opening vast areas of unoccupied land for residential expansion, the omnibuses, horse railways, commuter trains, and electric trolleys pulled settled regions outward two to four times more distant form city centers than they were in the premodern erain 1850, for example, the borders of boston lay scarcely two miles from the old business district; by the turn of the century the radius extended ten milesnow those who could afford it could live far removed from the old city center and still commute there for work, shopping, and entertainmentthe new accessibility of land around the periphery（周围） of almost every major city sparked an explosion of real estate development and fueled what we now know as urban sprawlbetween 1890 and 1920, for example, some 250,000 new residential lots were recorded within the borders of chicago, most of them located in outlying areasover the same period, another 550,000 were plotted outside the city limits but within the metropolitan areaanxious to take advantage of the possibilities of commuting, real estate developers added 800,000 potential building sites to the chicago region in just thirty years lots that could have housed five to six million peopleof course, many were never occupied; there was always a huge surplus of subdivided, but vacant, land around chicago and other citiesthese excesses underscore a feature of residential expansion related to the growth of mass transportation: urban sprawl（建筑物无计划延伸） was essentially unplannedit was carried out by thousands of small investors who paid little heed to coordinated land use or to future land usersthose who purchased and prepared land for residential purposes, particularly land near or outside city borders where transit lines and middle-class inhabitants were anticipated, did so to create demand as much as to respond to itchicago is a prime example of this processreal estate subdivision

demand determine land usedthe effect of mass transportation on urban expansion73why does the author mention both boston and chicago?ato demonstrate positive and negative effects of growthbto exemplify
