Question

Stress is everywhere in our everyday life. Not only men have it, but also women and young people.

The most important reasons of stress are：death, diseases, exams, making money, getting married, moving houses, changing jobs, ending friendships and so on .

Do you get headaches a lot?
Do you take sleeping pills?
Do you find it difficult to relax?
Do you usually hide your feelings?
Do you smoke and drink a lot to keep quiet?
Do you find it difficult to put your heart into something?

If you answer “Yes” to more than two of these questions, you are one of those people with stress. So what can you do about it?

Doing relaxing exercises, talking with friends and listening to light music are all usual ways of relieving（減輕） stress. However, doctors now say that there are easier ways—people should laugh and smile more often. When you laugh and smile, your body relaxes.

試題分析：這篇短文告訴我們?cè)谖覀兊娜粘Ｉ�活中，壓力無(wú)處不在，很多人都會(huì)感到有壓力，引起壓力的原因也很多。作者還給我們列了一張表格，來(lái)測(cè)試一下我們是否有壓力，還提到了如何釋放壓力。

1.細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)短文的開頭部分Stress is everywhere in our everyday life. Not only men have it, but also women and young people.可知，壓力在我們的日常生活中無(wú)處不在，不僅男人有壓力，女人和年輕人也有壓力。故選D。

2.細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)表格下面If you answer “Yes” to more than two of these questions, you are one of those people with stress.可知，如果表格中的問題，你有兩個(gè)或以上的答案是“是”，那么你就是一個(gè)有壓力的人。故選A。

3.推理判斷題。根據(jù)短文第二段中The most important reasons of stress are：death, diseases, exams, making money, getting married, moving houses, changing jobs, ending friendships and so on可知，導(dǎo)致壓力的原因有很多，如死亡、疾病、考試、賺錢、結(jié)合、搬家、變換工作、結(jié)束友誼等等。其中沒有提到的是B選項(xiàng)服用安眠藥。故選B。

4.細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)短文最后一段中However, doctors now say that there are easier ways—people should laugh and smile more often和 crying is the natural way of relieving stress.可知，醫(yī)生說(shuō)釋放壓力簡(jiǎn)單的方式是要經(jīng)常笑，哭也是釋放壓力的一種自然的方式。故選C。
