Young at heart and in body!

Today people are living a lot longer than they used to, and
their lives are much healthier, too. Older people used to say
that they were "young at heart" when they looked old but
felt young. Now, people want to look as young as they feel,
and they are willing to spend a lot of money on cosmetic
surgery to make their wish come true. If an operation can
give people a younger face or body, then some people will
have it and not worry about the dangers or the cost. People
have always looked for eternal youth, and maybe now they
have found it.
As well as trying to look younger, people can have operations for other reasons. They can become thinner or fatter.
They can have a different nose or more hair. They can even become taller or shorter! In fact doctors can probably
change almost any part of the body that you are unhappy with... for the right amount of money! The number of
people who have these operations is continuing to go up. Last year in the United States, there was an increase of
15 percent! And it is not only women who want a perfect body. Although the majority of operations are performed
on women, more and more men are choosing to have surgery, too. The most popular operations for men include
changing their nose or ears, and fat reduction. It is also worrisome that many young people are having surgery. It is
becoming so popular and cheap that some eighteendyeardolds are getting operations as presents for their
birthdays!
However, these operations can be dangerous, and they can also cause a lot of pain. Sometimes the operations go
wrong, and the person may look worse than before. There are some terrible stories, which have been shown on
some frightening television programs. Although there are problems, people continue to take the risks.
In the past, only the rich and famous could afford to pay for these operations, but today the prices are much lower.
Many more people today have the opportunity to look younger or to look like their favorite celebrity. Although it
costs money and is dangerous, millions of men and women still have surgery because they want a perfect body.
1. People today can change the way they look.

a. True b. False c. Doesn’t say
2. People look younger because their diets have improved.
3. People spend a lot of money on their health.
4. Some operations can make people thinner.
5. More men than women have surgery.
6. More people had surgery last year than the year before.
7. These operations are completely save.
8. Some men want to change their ears.
9. Teenagers under eighteen can have surgery.
10. These operations are extremely expensive.
