And in the town of Ovodda, the Vaccas are not alone.
在Ovodda，Vacca一家不是唯一的。
In this small town, there are five centenarians, but perhaps even more remarkably,
在這個(gè)小鎮(zhèn)上，有5個(gè)長(zhǎng)壽家庭，然而也許更值得注意的是，
it's the only region in the world where as many men as women live to be 100 years of age.

It's a phenomenon that Professor Luca Deiana has spent his life trying to understand.
這個(gè)現(xiàn)象讓Luca Deiana教授畢生努力搞明白。

cannot fully explain the unique longevity he's observed in Sardinia.

還有其它國(guó)家一樣是地中海飲食，
and there are centenarians there, but not as many as in Sardinia.

Over the past ten years, Deiana has tested every single Sardinian centenarian.
在過(guò)去10年里，Deiana已經(jīng)測(cè)試了每一個(gè)撒丁島的單身百歲老人。
Today, he's visiting the oldest member of the Vacca family, 104-year-old Maria.
今天他來(lái)造訪Vacca家族最老的成員，104歲的Maria。
Deiana is particularly interested in Maria because as a member of the Vacca family,
Deiana顯然對(duì)Maria感興趣，因?yàn)樽鳛閂acca家族的一員，
she comes from a long line of centenarians.
她來(lái)自百歲老人的長(zhǎng)隊(duì)。
