We all think we understand the formula for keeping healthy-- eat right, exercise, don’t smoke, skip dessert. But that picture is vastly incomplete, perhaps fatally so. While our individual health is highly dependent on our daily behaviors, it may be even more strongly influenced by the social and environmental conditions in which we live. Smith, a prestigious doctor, argues that the future of our health, and our healthcare system, depends on growing and supporting a new generation of healthcare practitioners who look upriver at the source of our health problems, rather than simply opting for quick-hit symptomatic relief. These “Upstreamists,” as he calls them, are practitioners on the frontlines of health who see that health (like sickness) is more than a chemical equation that can be balanced with pills and procedures administered within clinic walls. They see, rather, that health begins in our everyday lives, in the places where we live, work, eat and play. Upstreamists — who may be doctors, nurses or other clinicians — know that asthma can start in the air around us, or from the mold in the walls of our homes. They understand that obesity, diabetes and heart disease partly originate in our busy modern schedules, in the unhealthy food choices available in our stores and even in the way our neighborhoods are designed. They believe that depression, anxiety and high blood pressure can arise from chronically stressful conditions at work and home. And, just as important, these caregivers understand how to translate this knowledge into meaningful action.

16. What is the main idea in this passage?

A recreational vehicle is a large vehicle designed for people to live and sleep in when they are traveling on the road. Many recreational vehicles today are equipped with bedding, cookware, and furniture. Therefore, they have made it possible to combine nonstop travel with a real home. They become a home as well as a base where different lifestyles find a way to go on. Simply close your eyes and imagine the free roving life on wheels. Are you itching for such a choice now?

As a matter of fact, living and traveling in recreational vehicles is becoming a trend in many countries around the world. Ironically, this boom is fueled by a new coronavirus disease since a lot of people agree that one way of dealing with it is to buy a recreational vehicle. Nevertheless, even if you simply decide to become a part-time recreational vehicle traveler, there are still some issues that you have to deal cautiously with.

To begin with, you should avoid biting off more than what you can chew. Do not go over budget when you purchase a recreational vehicle. Moreover, just because you can afford a new recreational vehicle, this does not mean that you have no other expenses to cover. Oil, fuel, tires, insurance, and turnpike fees will all cost you a great sum of money. You may also have to take care of various problems, such as staying alive on the highway, finding acceptable campsites, encountering mechanical breakdowns, and even putting up with rainy days and campground neighbors. If you find the above problems conquerable, you may hit the road now, either alone or with people on the same wavelength. Wish you safe miles!
