Although this term has not been commonly used to describe health in years past, sustainable health is a growing
movement. Health can be defined as a state of feeling good. The word sustainability describes the process by which
something can keep going. Thus, sustainable health describes being in a state where you feel good not just once but over an extended period of time. Some major areas of interest surrounding sustainable health include: food additives, animal welfare, biodiversity, community farming, genetic engineering, and pesticides.
Youths are increasingly being exposed to unhealthy diets, including diets are high in saturated fats and low in
fruits, vegetables, and complex carbohydrates. Probably the most worrying realities of unhealthy eating practices have been the increased risk of diseases like diabetes, heart failure, malnutrition, and obesity. In 2006 the WHO reported that 400 million out of the 1.6 billion adults who were diagnosed as overweight were simultaneously diagnosed as obese in both developed and developing countries.
Research studies have shown that educating school-aged children and young people on healthy and sustainable nutritional habits will increase the likelihood of those children and young people remaining healthy in the future
regardless of socio-economic background. These educational programs not only teach nutrition, but also teach youth how to prepare and handle food in safe and sustainable ways, achieve a balanced diet with limited resources, and to decrease their risk of acquiring a nutrition-related disease or disorder. The Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) has been used by many research studies on nutrition to predict the factors that affect youth decision-making with regards to eating healthy. A study found that youth in a multicultural low-income community in the Unites States of America who participated in a 10-week program significantly improved in nutrition and eating habits. The success of the nutrition education program for multicultural youth identified several factors that were important to positively influencing the nutrition choices, which includes: a nutrition and cooking curriculum that emphasized culturally diverse foods; participatory learning activities (role-playing), sustainable gardening lessons, in addition to skills to fight racism and poverty discrimination. TPB model has also been used to help identify the ecological and cultural factors that affect indigenous youth in the Americas.

A difficult problem that the society is facing is the legalization of euthanasia – the act of causing death painlessly in order to end suffering. People who are in a coma because of injury to their brains and elderly people who are terminally ill are being kept alive by artificial means. They do not have a chance to recover, but laws in most states of the United States do not allow doctors to end their lives. Although many people feel that doctors must do everything possible to keep their patients alive, I believe that euthanasia should be legal for three reasons.
The first and most important reason to support euthanasia is that some patients who have no chance to recover do not wish to be kept alive on machines. These patients are kept alive by life-support machines such as respirators to help them breathe and feeding tubes to provide them with nutrition. A well-known example in the United States is the case of Teri Schiavo, a young woman who went into a coma in 1990. Mrs. Schiavo was able to breathe on her own, but her brain was dead. For fifteen years, she was kept alive by a feeding tube. After eight years of seeking treatment for her condition, her husband asked the court for permission to remove her feeding tube. He said that his wife had told him that she would not want to be kept alive artificially when there was no hope of recovery. Mrs. Schiavo’s parents disagreed with Mr. Schiavo and fought to keep their daughter alive. After seven years of bitter court battles, Mr. Schiavo finally won. Doctors removed Mrs. Schiavo’s feeding tube, and she soon died. Clearly, when there is absolutely no hope of recover, society should allow a person to die if that is her or his wish.
A second reason is that medical costs in the United States were very high. Keeping a person alive for years
requires round-the-clock care in a hospital. According to an administrator at a local hospital, a daily hospital room
charges average $5,000 there. The high cost can cause serious financial problems for a family.
The final reason is that the family suffers. Hospital staffs give terminally ill patients only minimal care. Thus, the
family must spend time caring for the special needs of their loved one. For instance, a cousin of mine who had been in a motorcycle accident was kept on life-support machines for eight years. Someone had to stay with him twenty-four hours a day. During those years, his parents took turns taking care of him. Other family members tried to help out when they could, but his parents did most of the physical work and suffered most of the emotional stress. After he finally died,my aunt said, “Of course, I am sad, but since we all knew he would eventually die, it might have been better if it had happened right when he had the accident. These past eight years have been hard.” To summarize patients who are either terminally ill or who are in an irreversible coma often wish to die. Their care is a financial, physical, and emotional burden for their families. Therefore, families should have the right to ask doctors to turn off life support machines or to remove feeding tubes.

11. Concerning euthanasia, the author thinks that …
(A) it should be legalized in any circumstances.
(B) the family, not the law, decides if it is to be performed.
(C) doctors should perform it when the patient wishes to die.
(D) it should be legalized under certain conditions.
(E) it is the answer to relieve a social burden of the patient’s family.

12. The least important reason the author argues is that …
(A) the patient’s family suffers because of the hospital staff’s indifference.
(B) doctors and nurses do not really care about their patients.
(C) when somebody is ill, the family has to take turns caring for them.
(D) the parents of the terminally ill patient suffer a lot.
(E) the family suffers the most although they know the patient will not recover.

13. What does the author’s concern about the legal form of euthanasia?
(A) the family’s objection
(B) the family’s rights
(C) the life of the dying patient
(D) the patient’s expectation

(B) The family might refuse the idea of euthanasia.
