Which evidence from the Newsela article "Health Benefits of Reading, Writing, Are Not Just for Patients" best supports the inference that reading fiction can be very beneficial to personal relationships?
"Because we empathize, or feel what others are feeling, we expand our understanding of other people in other situations.
We are also less bothered by our own misfortunes."
"Trying to understand these characters exercises the same mental muscle that helps us understand people in the real
world."
"Because when people are reading fiction, they are imagining what it is like to be in these stories, Mar says."
"Harper says doctors who read stories are more understanding and therefore, more compassionate or caring, more willing
to listen to their patients' stories."

From the way this question is structured, I assume it only has one correct answer. In that case, it should be:

"Harper says doctors who read stories are more understanding and therefore, more compassionate or caring, more willing  to listen to their patients' stories."

Explanation:

Interpersonal relationships are associations, connections between two or more people, varying when it comes to closeness and intimacy. For an interpersonal relationship to work smoothly, traits such as empathy, compassion, caring, patience, and willingness to listen, among others, are essential. They allow people to truly connect by understanding one another, relating to the other person's feelings.

According to the article, reading stories can help develop those traits. So much so that doctors who read stories display those characteristics more easily, being more understanding toward their patients. That is what the last option tells us. Therefore, we can choose it as the option that best supports the inference that reading fiction can be beneficial to personal relationships.

because of all the immigration, america became one big melting pot. the diversity of cultures from all over the world made america somewhat divided as well. people that immigrated stayed with their kind, and their traditions, while native born americans stayed with their kind and their traditions. normally, people born in american scorned the immigrants as well. the new religions also divided america. in summary, it took away from the american culture and identified america as the "melting pot."
