2. Read the following passage and answer the questions:
From the beginning, children should be allowed to develop in their own natural happy way within the control of
parental love, guidance and care and without too much pressure. A change of some conventional parental
attitudes may help to prevent many cases of drug dependence and other adolescence problems.
We should also understand our parental responsibilities to the World environment. Remember that the living
space of this world is limited and we must leave enough space for our future generation to live happily. To
achieve that aim, we must practice family planning and limit the birth rate by having only one or two children per
couple. Between each birth there should be a gap of three or four years so that each child is not deprived of the
right to sufficient parental love and care. Family planning really means family welfare, as it helps to keep women
healthy enough to contribute to a happy home environment. A happy healthy mother is a key to the welfare of
the whole family.
The mind is most important in the maintenance of positive health. To develop a healthy mind it is important to
learn to relax properly and to develop ways to deal with day to day stress. Many diseases such as high blood
pressure and some heart problems are thought to be released to stress, so by using relaxation, techniques you
may avoid many health problems.
However, even when we enjoy good health, diseases may occur. According to international statics, each person
is at risk of becoming sick or injured about twice a year on average. It is important to deal with any sickness or
injury in a realistic and intelligent way without panic.
