Stress used to be an almost unknown word, but now we have got used to 【小题1】(talk)about it.

In recent years, stress has been regarded as a cause of many kinds of medical problems, from high blood pressure to mental illness. But like so many other things, it is only too much stress 【小题2】 does you harm. If you are stuck at home with no stress, then there is slight chance that you will make much 【小题3】(achieve). In some degree, the more stress you are under, the 【小题4】(good)your performance will be.

Beyond a certain point, though, further stress will only lead to exhaustion, illness and finally a breakdown. You can tell when you are over the top and on the downward slope, by asking yourself 【小题5】 number of questions. Do you, for example, feel that too much is being expected of you, and yet find it impossible 【小题6】(say)no? Do you find yourself getting impatient or 【小题7】(annoy)with people over unimportant things? If the answer to all those questions 【小题8】(be)yes, it’s best to control your stress, because you probably are under more stress than is good for you.

You can partly control the amount of stress in your life. Doctors have worked out a chart showing how much stress is involved in various 【小题9】(activity). Getting married is 50, pregnancy 40, moving house 20, Christmas 12, etc. 【小题10】 the total stress in your life is over 150, you are twice as likely to get ill.
