1.Перепишите текст, раскройте скобки, поставив прилагательное в соответствующую форму. (Elephants Live Longer)
Doctors want us to believe that doing sports is (good) …for our health. Sport and other activities help us to live (long).This is complete nonsense!
If you look at nature, you will see that the (active) … animals have the (short)
lifespan. A good example is the hummingbird (колибри).
However, animals which move slowly or live a (quiet) …life, usually grow a lot (old) … like the tortoise or the elephant.
This might also explain why the average woman lives about 5 years (long)… than the average man, who spends so much energy on hard, often physically hard work.
I therefore suggest that we should not advertise sports actively. This suggestion would help more people to have (long) …lives.

goodbye,long,active, sports.
