The term “quality of life” is difficult to define. It covers a very wide scope such as living environment， health， employment， food，family life， friends， education， material possessions， leisure and recreation， and so on. Generally speaking， the quality of life， especial as seen by the individual， is meaningful in terms of the degree to which these various areas of life are available or provide satisfaction to the individual.
