Last year, my husband and I decided t make ur 12-strey building mre f a cmmunity. We live in a small rented apartment in Park Merced, a large husing develpment. I wuld call us lwer-middle-class. A lt f nurses, bus drivers, and tradesmen live here, many f them 1st r 2nd generatin immigrants.
We’re all renters. Renters cme and g and tend nt t see the buildings they live in as their hme. But it can be dne. We started with a mnthly tw-hur scial in the building lbby (门厅) n the secnd Friday f each mnth. Sme peple came, between 15-30 each time. The events lasted tw hurs, but there wasn’t much t d besides talking, eating snacks and drinking juice. The scials were nice, but mst residents gave them a miss.
Then ne day I was n the nearby campus f San Francisc State University. A yung man frm a scial club fr students had a big sign abut “Building Cmmunity”. I asked, “Hw d yu d that?” He said they tried t get peple t share smething abut themselves with at least ne ther persn. That made much sense t me.
I bught a large wrld map. At the scial, I taped it n the lbby wall with signs saying “Where We’re Frm. Put a green sticker where yu were brn and yellw stickers where yur grandparents were brn.” Peple put up their stickers and lked where ther peple came frm. We left the map up vernight, and the next day, Saturday, mre peple played. I planned t leave the map and stickers up fr a mnth r mre. They certainly made the lbby mre interesting than the husing prject lk it usually has.
I see there will be challenges, but I als knw a strng cmmunity will help us live gd lives. I have the time and energy t d this wrk.

Frm Sctland t Crnwall, an rganic, regenerative cllective f the UK farmers is lking t pair up with sustainable businesses that need access t land and tls. Pitch Up! was funded in 2021 by Tim May, f Kingsclere Estates (庄园) farm in Hampshire. It ffers land, resurces and expertise t businesses with big ideas fr sustainable prjects. The idea is t cpy nature’s “clsed lp” system, with waste being reused t create a bming circular (循环的) farming cmmunity.
“Our gal is t have a diverse mix f enterprises (企业) all perating ff the land — using each ther’s byprducts r waste, and sharing knwledge, equipment and experience,” says May. “Nature thrives (兴盛) n diversity; it als fuels ecnmic resilience (韧性), helps create a clsed-lp system, and builds strnger rural cmmunities. As farmers, we have an abundance f land and natural resurces, and we want t share thse resurces and bring mre peple n t the land.”
Pitch Up! has already helped t launch a handful f businesses. Balcaskie Estate cvers 2000 hectares f land in Fife, Sctland, and has hsted markets, a butchery, and pp ups by Sctland The Bread, an rganizatin that wrks t get mre peple eating better bread.
Rsie Jack, Balcaskie’s business develpment manager, says, “We knw that there’s a real demand fr rural land s ur message is, ‘We have land, cme and use it!’ We really d welcme appraches frm businesses f all shapes and sizes.”
This year, the Pitch Up! farming cllective is keen t hear frm mre cperative enterprisers. “We are lking fr sustainable businesses at all stages f the business life cycle, but particularly thse that have an idea f hw they can fit int the circular systems in place at a Pitch Up! farm,” says May, “It might be a cheese maker fr example, wh can add value by using the rganic milk frm the mbile dairy business here.”

The field f anti-ageing medicine has explded in recent years due t discveries abut the fundamental bilgy f ageing, which are translated int experimental therapies (疗法). The latest funtain f yuth cmes in the frm f vaccines (疫苗) against age-related cnditins — cancer, heart disease, dementia and mre. The first f these culd be available by the end f the decade. All-purpse anti-ageing injectins are als in develpment.
The upsides f such vaccines are clear. Anything, limiting the impact f age-related cnditins n peple wh live int ld age and the lved nes wh ften end up caring fr them, has t be welcmed. They als prmise t lessen the effect n the increasingly scietal and ecnmic csts f these diseases.
But as with all anti-ageing interventins, there are ptential dwnsides t. If millins f peple live significantly lnger, we risk a ppulatin explsin n a planet with verstretched resurces. If the vaccines merely delay the beginning f age-related cnditins, they will nly pstpne the burden n peple and sciety. And as Nbel prizewinner Venki Ramakrishnan tld us earlier, a lng-lived sciety is likely t becme less dynamic. These are familiar fears. The cmmn respnse is t fcus n increasing health span, which means peple living fr lnger, free frm the diseases f ld age, then suddenly declining and dying.
We wn’t knw the utcme until the therapies have been widely used, at which pint it might be t late t put the genie back in the bttle. But there is really n turning back anyway. If vaccines and ther anti-ageing therapies wrk and are affrdable, they will be used. Besides, nbdy wuld argue that innvatins like antibitics, vaccines and advanced diagnstics were a bad idea even if they marked the beginning f ur era f age-related diseases. Similarly, we shuldn’t fear life-saving medical advances n the basis f unintended cnsequences. If we can make lives lnger and less painful, the dwnsides are a price wrth paying.
12. Why is the field f anti-ageing medicine grwing rapidly?
A. The bilgy f ageing is better applied.
B. The trend f healthy lifestyle is grwing.
C. The demand fr lnger life is increasing.
D. The number f elderly is rising glbally.
13. Hw d anti-ageing vaccines benefit sciety?
A. By increasing the wrkfrce.B. By reducing healthcare expense.
C. By curing peple f diseases.D. By bsting ecnmic grwth.
14. What des the underlined phrase “put the genie back in the bttle” mean?
A. T stp the prcess f ageing ttally.
B. T create a new medical breakthrugh.
C. T remve the impact f the therapies.
D. T delay the develpment f technlgy.
15. What is the best title fr this article?
A. Can Anti-Ageing Medicine Really Wrk?
B. What Is the Risk f Anti-Ageing Medicine?
C. Is It Wrthwhile Using Anti-Ageing Medicine?
D. Hw t Stay Yung with Anti-Ageing Medicine?
