65. According to the author, the true meaning of “wellness” is for people ________.
    A) to best satisfy their body’s special needs
    B) to strive to maintain the best possible health
    C) to meet the strictest standards of bodily health
    D) to keep a proper balance between work and leisure
    題目問(wèn)根據(jù)作者的說(shuō)法,wellness的真實(shí)含義是指人們要如何如何。第二段中間部分提到了某些健康專(zhuān)家的健康新觀(guān)點(diǎn),而后對(duì)well和wellness分別進(jìn)行了解釋。對(duì)wellness是這樣解釋的:“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。這段話(huà)較易理解,大意為:不要把wellness看做是一種人們能夠達(dá)到的狀態(tài),而應(yīng)該是一種努力追求的理想。健康的人更能夠抵御疾病侵襲,或在染病時(shí)能更好地與疾病抗?fàn)?。Wellness的觀(guān)念讓人們把注意力集中在健康的生活方式上,在人們面對(duì)日常生活的挑戰(zhàn)時(shí),wellness的觀(guān)念可以施加有益的影響。
    A,地滿(mǎn)足身體的特殊需求。第二段開(kāi)頭說(shuō)到滿(mǎn)足身體特殊需求(and pays attention to the body’s special needs)是傳統(tǒng)醫(yī)學(xué)界的觀(guān)點(diǎn),而不是新觀(guān)點(diǎn)。
    B,努力保持可能的的健康狀態(tài)。文中把wellness定義為an ideal that people can strive for,strive for是“努力達(dá)到”的意思,與B的表述一致。Ideal是理想狀況,可以理解為一種可[考試[大]能達(dá)到的狀況。B的說(shuō)法正確。
