Answer to Question 1

A

Answer to Question 2

It refers to a set of beliefs and practices that are not accepted, recognized, or controlled by official religious groups. Sometimes called folk or popular religion, it is practiced by ordinary people rather than by religious professionals. It takes many forms--purchase of religious literature, faith healing, meditation--and may be practiced by members of organized churches as well as by those who have no formal church affiliation.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
