Answer:

successful aging

Step-by-step explanation:

Daria is exhibiting successful aging. Successful aging involves individuals adapting favorably to the changes in their age, which are both physiological and functional changes. Daria is adapting favorably to changes in her age functionally and physiologically and this is noticed in the fact that her cognitive functions is still intact as she can still read daily and does crosswords and can walk around unaided.
