Examples of of a certain age in a Sentence

  1. Brad Jolliff:

    Planetary scientists know that the more craters on a surface, the older it is ; the fewer craters, the younger the surface. That's a nice relative determination, but to put absolute age dates on that, one has to have samples from those surfaces. The Apollo samples gave us a number of surfaces that we were able to date and correlate with crater densities. This cratering chronology has been extended to other planets -- for example, for Mercury and Mars -- to say that surfaces with a certain density of craters have a certain age.

  2. David Anderson:

    Unlike learning a sport or violin, you don't get a social media instructor when your kid turns a certain age, there are no lessons, and the internet is infinitely more complex. A good approach is to be clear with your child that you'll share the responsibility.

  3. Anthony Fauci:

    There have been a number of studies to show that when you have children that are of a certain age, namely … eighth grade and higher, that they transmit as easily as adults transmit.

  4. Demetre Daskalakis:

    For men who have sex with men and who are of a certain age, there has never been a time that they've had sex without having to be very, very worried about HIV constantly, you can plan ahead by saying, 'You know, something is going on in my surroundings that is putting me at risk for HIV, so I'm going to take this really, frankly, brave step in taking a medicine every day to prevent HIV infection.' So it's not really in the heat of the moment, or 'I have to put a condom on right now' or 'Where is my condom?' It just gives you the level of security to acknowledge that risks happen and that some people have risk patterns.

  5. Vivian Diller:

    If we know that it is in your genes you will get gray hair at a certain age, no matter what you do, you will say, 'OK, I'll just color it. I'm not going to pluck them out, and I know it doesn't mean I'm old and dying,'.
