試題分析：如今生活總是充滿(mǎn)了壓力。你通常如何處理你的壓力？你知道做家務(wù)是解決壓力有用嗎？事實(shí)上，做一些像洗臟衣服可以使人放松。“做一些家務(wù)如洗窗、熨衣服是沒(méi)有服用任何藥物面對(duì)壓力的好方法，”卡羅爾說(shuō)克拉克，一個(gè)成功的心理學(xué)家在紐約。她經(jīng)常建議人們有很多壓力時(shí)試著每天做家務(wù)。“在你洗東西期間，”她說(shuō)，“你可以想象你洗去在你的生活的一些麻煩。”這樣做的人都同意她的想法？這里有一些關(guān)于它的觀(guān)念。“做家務(wù)是我生命中的應(yīng)力的主要原因，”琳達(dá)說(shuō)，“讓我做完家務(wù)，然后我會(huì)很輕松。”加里是一個(gè)單身的的父親。“一個(gè)人付心理學(xué)家200美元一個(gè)小時(shí)，問(wèn)關(guān)于他的壓力問(wèn)題。然而，他只是告訴回家去做一些家務(wù)活。我真的不知道誰(shuí)是瘋狂的，心理學(xué)家還是這個(gè)人！
