A People like to lose weight，but they do not like to eat less B People want to go to heavenbut they do not want to die C Mice will go to heaven if they lose weightD Mice enjoy losing weight44 The average modified mouse lived A 3 years B 753 days C More than 3 yearsD 887 days45 What Can be inferred from the passage about the route tO long life?

Redlichs findings clearly demonstrate how easy it can be to get people to falsely confess：59 percent of the young adults in the experiment immediately confessed_ (48)Of the 1 5-to 1 6-year-olds，72 percent signed confessions，as did 78 percent of the 1 2-to13-year-olds “Theres no question that young people are more at risk，”says Saul Kassin，Professor at Williams College，who has done similar studies with similar results. _ (49) a psychology Both Kassin and Redlich note that the entire interrogation” in their experiments consisted of a simple accusation-not hours of aggressive questioning-and still，most participants falsely confessed Because of the stres
