China 72
New Zealand 80
Japan 82
[Audio
Speaker A Hey, have you seen this chart? Guess which country has the highest life expectancy in the world?
Speaker A I know the answer to that question: it's Japan. 82 years is how long the average Japanese can expect to live… Why is that, do you think?
Speaker A I don't know for sure but their diet might have a lot to do with it. They eat lots offish and vegetables.
Speaker B Oh… Do New Zealanders have a good diet too?
Speaker A As far as I know, they eat too much meat and cheese so it's not exactly a healthy diet… lots of protein but probably too much fat. Their quality of life would be good though. New Zealand's part of the developed world, but it's not really an industrialised country, so they've got plenty of clean, fresh air.
Speaker B That could be the reason for their longevity, I suppose… I thought it might be because they play a lot of sport and get lots of exercise. Look, I see life expectancy in China is pretty high.
Speaker A Yes, 72. I think that's the highest it's ever been…higher now than Peru where people only live to be 70 on average. I have heard that there is a lot of poverty in Peru, in both urban and rural areas. Many of the workers are paid very low wages so they may not be able to afford nutritious food or proper health care… and Russians are even worse off; they can only expect to live to 65!
Speaker B Too much vodka!
Speaker A I don't know about that… but alcoholism could be a factor. Seriously, I think they have quite a low standard of living, you know, things like the quality of housing and the amount of food available. Even so, their life expectancy is nearly double that of Botswana.
Speaker B I don't think I've heard of Botswana before. Where's that?
Speaker A Africa. People in Botswana only live on average to the age of 34!
Speaker B That's awful!
Speaker A Terrible, isn't it? I know that about two thirds of Botswana is desert, but I also know it has a great natural resource— diamonds—so it's a relatively wealthy country and it only has a small population, less than 2 million. I've also heard that it has a good system of government and there is no civil war or fighting. It even has free education and health care for all its citizens.
Speaker B Why do they die so young then?
Speaker A Disease. The AIDS epidemic. It's the worst-affected country in the world! ]
