Stress Level Tied to Education Level

　　People with less education suffer fewer stressful days, according to a report in the current issue of the Journal of Health and Social Behavior．

　　However, the study also found that when less-educated people did suffer stress it was more severe and had a larger impact on their health．

　　From this, researchers have concluded that the day-to-day factors that cause stress are not random．Where you are in society determines the kinds of problems that you have each day, and how well you will cope with them．

　　The research team interviewed a national sample of 1,031 adults daily for eight days about their stress level and health．People without a high school diploma(畢業(yè)文憑)reported stress on 30 percent of the study days, people with a high school degree reported stress 38 percent of the time, and people with college degrees reported stress 44 percent to the time．

　　“Less advantaged people are less healthy on a daily basis and are more likely to have downward turns in their health,” lead researcher Dr．Joseph Grzywacz, of Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center, said in a prepared statement．“The downward turns in health were connected with daily stressors and the effect of daily stressors on their health is much more devastating(毀滅性的)for the less advantaged．”Grzywacz suggested follow-up research to determine why less-educated people report fewer days of stress when it is known their stress in more acute and chronic．

　　“If something happens every day, maybe it’s not seen as a stressor” Grzywacz says．“Maybe it is just life．”

Hu Yaohui, a schoolgirl in Zhejiang province, didn’t want to speak or eat for a week. She kept worrying about her scores on the exam. “I can’t stop thinking about my place in the class,” she said. “I feel stressed out.”

Hu is not the only one who faces stress. According to a recent survey conducted by Wuhan University of Hubei province, 70 percent of the 2,000 students who are going to take the college and high school entrance exams feel under pressure (壓力).

Stress is a normal physical response (反應(yīng)) to things that make people feel worried or break their balance of life in some way.

Stress isn’t always bad. Sometimes, people’s stress is important during emergency situations, such as when a driver has to stop his car to avoid an accident. Sometimes, stress can help people do their best — like while getting ready before a big competition or exam.

However, too much or long-term stress gives people a stress overload (負(fù)荷過多). People with stress overloads may have problems remembering or concentrating on things. They are quick to get angry or lose patience. They may even have other problems, such as sleeping problems, headaches and often getting colds.

The most helpful way to deal with stress overloads is to learn how to manage the stress. For example, you might manage it by getting a good night’s sleep, or by exercising every day.

Another good way to deal with stress is to ask parents or friends for help. Everyone has stress. For many people, stress is so common that it has become a way of life. Don’t be too shy to tell others that you are having a hard time. They may comfort you or give you some useful advice. Sometimes just sharing your problems with someone else can make you feel better.

1.Hu Yaohui felt stressed out about __________.

A. her marks on the exams

B. which seat to take during exams

C. not being able to sit in the front

D. not being allowed to eat in class

2.According to the survey in Paragraph 2, __________ of the 2,000 students who will take entrance exams feel stressed.

A. nearly half                          B. about 1,400

C. almost seven hundred                 D. about one seventh

3.Which of the following is TRUE?

A. Stress is a kind of serious heart disease.

B. Stress is always bad for people.

C. Stress is always useless for an exam.

D. Stress is greatly needed sometimes.

4.The best title of this passage is “__________”.

A. Many students face stress now.

B. People’s stress is sometimes important.

C. How to get less stress

D. How to get good results with the help of stress.
