Which evidence from the Newsela article "Health Benefits of Reading, Writing, Are Not Just for Patients" supports the central ideas that reading can help people better understand one another and that reading can help improve people's feelings about their own lives? Select the two correct answers.

"'We learn through the experiences of the characters we read about,' Coke says. '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.'"

"Coke points to books such as Frank McCourt’s Angela’s Ashes. In that book the author writes about growing up poor in 1930s and ’40s Ireland."

"He found that children and adults who have read stories their whole lives were more likely to correctly identify the feelings and thoughts of others than those who do not read regularly."

"For example, think of fairy tales that teach moral lessons. Or religious texts that wrestle with valleys of despair and mountains of hope, or poetry that cleanses the writer’s soul."
