Sam Walton, the founder of Wal-Mart，was born in Kingfish，Oklahoma on March 29，1918. He was raised in Missouri where he worked in his father's store while attending school.

Throughout the centuries, various writers have contributed greatly to the literary treasure of books lining the shelves of today’s libraries. In addition to writing interesting material, many famous writers, such as Edgar Allan Poe, were larger-than-life characters with personal histories that are as interesting to read as the stories they wrote. Poe’s rocky life included being driven off from the United States Military Academy at West Point in 1831 and an ongoing battle with alcohol. Yet, despite heavy gambling debts, poor health, and terrible unemployment, Poe managed to produce a body of popular works, including" The Raven" and "The Murders in the Rue Morgue．”

Which statement is TRUE according to the passage?

The passage mainly tells us that＿＿．

As we have seen, the focus of medical care in our society has been shifting from curing disease to preventing disease-especially in terms of changing our many unhealthy behavior, such as poor eating habits, smoking, and failure to exercise. The line of thought involved in this shift can go further. Imagine a person who is about the right weight, but does not eat very nutritious
foods, who feels OK but exercises only occasionally, who goes to work every day, but is not an outstanding worker, who drinks a few beers at home most nights but does not drive while drunk,  and who has no chest pains or abnormal blood counts, but sleeps a lot and often feels tired. This person is not ill. He may not even be at risk for any particular disease. But we can imagine that this person could be a lot healthier.
The field of medicine has not traditionally distinguished between someone who is merely "not ill" and someone who is in excellent health and pays attention to the body’。special needs. Both types have simply been called "well". In recent years, however, some health specialists have begun to apply the terms "well" and "wellness" only to those who are actively striving to maintain and improve their health. People who are well are concerned with nutrition and exercise, and they make a point of monitoring their body's condition. Most important, perhaps, people who are well take active responsibility for all matters related to their health. Even people who have a physical disease or handicap（缺陷）may be "well", in this new sense, if they make an effort to maintain the best possible health they can in the face of their physical limitations. "Wellness" may perhaps best be viewed not as a state that people can achieve, but as an ideal that people can strive for.
People who are well are likely to be better able to resist disease and to fight disease when it strikes. And by focusing attention on healthy ways of living, the concept of wellness can have a beneficial impact on the ways in which people face the challenges of daily life.
Today medical care is placing more stress on＿＿．

In the first paragraph, people are reminded that＿＿．

Traditionally, a person is considered "well” if he＿＿．

According to the author, the true meaning of "wellness" is for people to＿＿．

Learning how to be patient with people can be challenging for some. After all, not everybody is gifted with great patience. The good news is that it is something that can be learned and eventually perfected
When the customer before you takes ages to pay for his or her groceries, you tap your foot impatiently and cough every～and then; but，the customer is still not hurrying up. It takes all of your power not to make a scene. However, if you picture that customer to be someone you like (say your partner), then you will find yourself not getting too annoyed, right? So the next time you find yourself losing patience with somebody, simply imagine that person to be someone you really, really like and your patience will extend its life.
The second step on how to be patient with people involves whistling. When you whistle a happy tune, you instantly cheer up. You can sing your favorite song if you can't whistle—it really doesn't make a difference. What’s important here is that you have done something that makes you feel good. And when you feel good, you are more likely to be patient with the people around you.  Next, when you’re stressed, it’s almost impossible to learn how to be patient with people. If you know you’re going to be in a situation where your patience will be tested, meditate(沉思)or get yourself a massage按摩）first. Don't dive into anything unless you've managed to clearyourself off negative emotions. Remember: the more stressed you are, the faster you’11 you’re your temper. The less stress you have in your life, the longer your patience.
Learning how to be patient with people is not a necessity in life. You've seen people who manage to survive day to day with incredibly bad tempers after all. But do you really want to live like they do? If, however, you want a life that has better quality than that, then just follow these steps and embrace the fact that patience is a virtue.
