What do you think of stress? Is it a good thing or a bad thing?
Most of the students think stress can do harm to them in some ways. There’s a story about a teenager in a middle school. He even ________ his study because of the stress from school and family. We also usually ________ that someone turns to psychological doctors (心理医生) because of heavy working stress. There is no doubt that some people think stress is a dangerous wolf.
On the other hand, other people argue that stress is not a bad thing. They ________ stress can produce momentum (动力) in the end. For them, right attitude and action can reduce (减少) stress and make it ________. When I was a child, my Mom always pushed me to study hard. She wished I could go to an ideal college for further education. I experienced stress for the first time. Born in a ________ family, I deeply knew life was not easy for us, and everything my Mom did to me was just to hope I could live a better life in the future. As the saying goes, “no pains, no gains.” So I did what my Mom expected because I didn’t want to let her down. At last, I did measure up (达到标准) to my Mom’s expectation and go to college ________. Thanks to my Mom’s push! Thanks to the stress! In this way, I don’t think stress is a bad thing.
Overall, stress is not a bad thing in itself. The key is how we deal with it.
