Answer to Question 1

B
It is important for nurses to assess the reading and comprehension abilities of patients before using printed materials. It is a common mistake to equate the highest educational level achieved with reading level. Typically, individuals read at three to five grade levels lower than their achieved educational level.

Answer to Question 2

C
Each individual has the capacity to learn, however learning ability varies from person to person and is situational. The pace of learning varies with each person. Learning is a continuous process and occurs in formal and informal settings. Learning is an individualized process. Motivation and readiness are necessary for learning to occur.

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.
