Reading The word's aging population

Scanning

When you read articles containing statistics, start by quickly scanning through for important numbers. For example, you are about to read an article about the world's aging population:

1. Look for ages.
2. Look for years.
3. Look for percentages.

Use scanning strategies to find the important information in the following sentence. Try not to read every word.

In 2005, people who were 65 years or older made up 20 percent of the Japanese population.

Expressions Changing situations

Changing situations
To describe situations that are changing, we can use phrases like these:

These days, I'm noticing that it's more difficult to stay in touch with everyone.

I think it's getting harder and harder to make time for myself.

I'm finding myself spending more time staying in and chilling out.

Right now, I'm struggling to find time to cook in the evening. I usually just grab takeout.	

I haven't gotten to the gym in ages.

Now read the conversation between the man and woman that you heard earlier. Move the text to the correct gap.

MAN: How're you finding life in the city?
WOMAN: It's OK. I just notice that these days I'm spending so much more time on the go.
MAN: Yes. Grabbing fast food on the way home rather than eating properly?
WOMAN: Exactly. And I'm finding it harder to get to the gym too. It just feels like there's no time.
MAN: Yeah, I know what you mean. I struggle with that as well.
WOMAN: I think it's getting harder and harder to make time for other things I enjoy too.
MAN: I haven't met up with some of our friends in ages .
WOMAN: I'm noticing that  too!  It's been a while since I've seen the guys, but they're all just super busy too.
MAN: Yeah, but I guess you've just got to make time for these things, right?
