A is correct.

C cannot interpret the "however".

我想问下A把adults分成男人跟女人，那万一女人就是比男人活的长（除了做好事之外的其他生理心理因素）那A会不会对解释这个题目就没用了

teresa861122

明白了。不是比较到底是不是做好事能使寿命变长。A的意思是说这组人，也就是做好事比较多的人大部分是女人，而女人寿命本来就比男人长，所以即使做好事不能使寿命变长，做好事的那组人寿命也会比不怎么做好事的人长，因为做好事的那组是女人。。。。佩服laywer同学啊，真精辟。。。枉我还一直在想女人本来命就比男人长啊A怎么能说明做好事命会长的啦。。。。注意，in the communities studied

“It has

been suggested that regular release of endorphins increases people’s longevity.

And a statistic on adults who regularly engage in volunteer work helping others

shows that they live longer,”

 

One of advantages for helping others--- endorphins increases people’s longevity

 

However, that statistic would be what we would expect even if volunteering does not

boost longevity, because .

 

“However” take another perspective.

 

“would be what we would expect even if” Which means beside the point, … Think out side of the box???

 

What if the optimism emotion gaining from helping others can have positive impact on the ailment of the volunteer, thus allow him recover sooner and be healthier and live longer. This comes from different perspective---emotional health---other than physical benefit and thus best complete the passage.

以下是引用jamesyeah在2007-3-7 17:32:00的发言：

看了楼上的发言，我觉得A 应该是正确答案吧，结合13楼中引用lawyer的话，然后把A中and连接的内容倒过来看，是不是A会更容易理解一些呢？

A.     in the communities studied, women were much more likely to do regular volunteer work than men were, and women tend to live longer than men do.

没错，就是这样理解的，and连接的两个句子是并列关系，而非因果关系。把这个搞清楚之后，A成为正确选项就很容易理解了。谢谢lawyer同学！

A包含两层意思：1.女人比男人长寿（PS：新陈代谢的缘故）；2.女人比男人更喜欢做好事。
