Read the excerpt from paragraph 13.
IrinaK [193]

The reason that  the author use the phrase 87 years young is option B. The use of this phrase suggests that the author believes that age is just a number and that everyone ages differently.

<h3>Why do some think that age is simply a number?</h3>

It's just meant to be a quote for inspiration. You are neither too old nor too young to try something you want to because age is simply a number.

The biological age of a person is determined by how healthy they are in comparison to the average health of a huge population of people of different ages. Participants who were biologically older felt and looked older than their biologically younger peers, were weaker, less coordinated, and had lower IQs.

Therefore, when they say that age is just a number. That's not actually true, though. Your chronological age and your biological age together make up your age. With birthday candles, chronological age is the one you count.
