The word health can be used in a number of ways. In the past, health meant only the absence of disease or illness, Today, though, health has a broader meaning. Health is the state of your wellbeing that includes how you feel physically, mentally, and socially. Well- ness is another term that describes this broader view of health. You can understand the need for a broader definition if you think about how health in your life is different from health in your grandparents’ lives.
In 1900, the main causes of death were diseases that were spread by bacteria (细菌) and viruses (病毒). If you had lived then, the danger of your dying from pneumonia (肺炎) would have been three times greater than the danger of your dying from cancer.
The diseases that were most common in 1900 affected people of all ages. It is not surprising, then that around 1900, the emphasis of health was on freedom from illness. Today many of the diseases that were common in 1900 can be prevented or cured by improved medicines and methods of sanitation (卫生). Most diseases now are likely to occur later in life. You as a teenager will probably not have to think about the same threats to your health as your grandparents did.
These improvements in health conditions mean that not only can you now enjoy a better life, but you also have a greater chance of having a longer life. Controlling diseases has increased the life expectancy in the United States. Generally, people born more recently have higher life expectancies. Since 1900, the life expectancy in the United States has increased by more than 27 years. It has increased from 47 years for those born in 1900 to 74 years 1981.
According to Paragraph 1, health and wellness ______.
选项
A、can be used interchangeably on all Occasions
B、are different in that the latter has a broader sense
C、had the same meaning in the past
D、both refer to the state of your well-being
答案
B
解析
根据原文第一段Wellness is another term that describes this broader view of health 一句可知health 与wellness 都可以表示广义的“健康”,因此选D。A项意为“可以在任何场合下交替使用”,过于绝对;B 项意为“两者不同,因为后者意义更广泛”;C 项意为“在过去意义相同”,均不符合原文意义。
