五、阅读理解
Going to the doctor can seem boring as a child and even as a teen. But when do people really start taking their health seriously? According to a survey of 2,000 adults in the UK,people don't start seriously paying attention to their health until the age of 38—often only after some health scares.
The study found that some people took better care of themselves only after they experienced new pains and reached a milestone(里程碑) birthday. Others were warned to take action after a loved one died or experienced a health problem. Famous people also play a role in making people take notice of their health. After King Charles was reported to be going through treatment for cancer,the UK National Health Service's webpage about the condition received more visits than before.
The study also found that 11 percent of adults said they still didn't take their health very seriously. Nearly half didn't take much notice at a younger age as they felt fine most of the time. 36 percent simply felt they were too young to need to worry about it. And 25 percent felt that nothing bad would happen to them.
It can be very easy to disregard your health especially when you are young or you feel that everything is OK. No one wants to think that there might be something wrong,but often the early signs of a health problem are not clear. Sometimes it can take a bit of a wake-up call before you start taking your health more seriously,whether that is falling ill yourself or seeing a loved one or even a well-known person experience a health problem.
There's no one-size-fits-all way when we talk about keeping healthy.
