Section A Lighten Your Load and Save Your Life Step 1 Warming Up This step aims at getting Ss ready for the topic of stress Activity One Look at these pictures and find out what these people suffer from. What causes their suffering? Tips for talk: 1. Sufferings: worry, depression, frustration, fury, disappointment, distress, anxiety, irritation, annoyance, confusion, uneasiness, unrest . 2. Causes: job stress, life stress, study stress . Activity Two Watch a video and have a discussion: What is the relationship between stress and life? Path of thinking: Q1: What is stress ? Q2: How much does stress affect our life? Sample Answers to Q1 Summary: Stress is a state of tension that results from one’s response to the demands and pressures caused by work, family and other external sources, as well as those that are internally generated from self-imposed demands, obligations and self-criticism. Stress is both additive and cumulative. It adds up over time until a state of crisis is reached and symptoms appear. It often manifests itself in irritability, anxiety, impaired concentration, mental confusion, poor judgment, frustration and anger as psychological symptoms. It also shows such physical symptoms as muscle tension, headaches, low back pain, insomnia and high blood pressure. Stress comes in all forms and affects persons of all ages and from all walks of life. No external standards can be applied to predict stress levels in individuals. The degree of stress in our lives is highly dependent upon individual factors such as our physical health, the quality of our interpersonal relationships, the number of commitments and responsibilities we carry, the degree of others’ dependence upon and expectations of us, the amount of support we receive from others, and the number of changes or traumatic events that have recently occurred in our lives. On the part of students, more often than not they suffer from depression triggered by exam pressures. Sample Answers to Q2 Summary: As mentioned above, stress has great influences on us both physically and psychologically. Headache is one of the most frequent symptoms associated with lifestyle stress. While too much stress disrupts the balance and function of mind and body, however, a mild degree of stress and tension can sometimes be beneficial. Feeling mildly stressed when carrying out an assignment often compels us to do a good job and to work energetically. It is only when stress is undue, or poorly managed, that its negative effects appear. For example, stress may increase the risk of many typical age-associated diseases by altering the immune response. Just as the video shows, many people suffering from the stress at work leave their jobs. Recent research shows that people today are more likely to experience stress and psychological distress than people in the past. Therefore, how to cope with stress becomes our first concern. As shown in the video, hugging each other in the morning is just one way of keeping under control the stress in the workplace. The manager here focuses on keeping workers happy to relieve their

• We have bigger houses, but smaller families; • We have more compromises, but less time; • We have more knowledge, but less judgment; • We have more medicines, but less health; • We have multiplied our possessions, but reduced our values; • We talk much, we love only a little, and we hate too much; • We reached the Moon and came back, but we found it troublesome to cross our own street and meet our neighbors; • We have conquered the outer space, but not our inner space; • We have higher income, but less morals; • These are times with more liberty, but less joy; • We have much more food, but less nutrition; • These are the days in which it takes two salaries for each home, but divorces increase; • These are times of finer houses, but more broken homes; • That’s why I propose, that as of today: • You do not keep anything for a special occasion because every day that you live is a special occasion; • Search for knowledge, read more, sit on your front porch and admire the view without paying attention to your needs; • Spend more time with your family and friends, eat your favorite foods, visit the places you love; • Life is a chain of moments of enjoyment; not only about survival; • Use your crystal goblets. Do not save your best perfume, and use it every time you feel you want it. • Remove your vocabulary phrases like “one of these days” or “someday”; • Let’s write that letter we thought of writing “one of these days”! • Let’s tell our families and friends how much we love them; • Do not delay anything that adds laughter and joy to your life; • Every day, every hour, and every minute is special; • And you don’t know if it will be your last. 5. Read passage, then do the multiple choice questions and put the underlined sentences into Chinese. “Humans should not try to avoid stress any more than they would shun food, love or exercise,” said Dr. Hans Selye, the first physician to document the effects of stress on the body. While there’s no question that continuous stress is harmful, several studies suggest that challenging situations in which you’re able to rise to the occasion can be good for you. In a 2001 study of 158 hospital nurses, those who faced considerable work demands but coped with the challenge were more likely to say they were in good health than those who felt they couldn’t get the job done. Stress that you can manage may also boost immune (免疫的) function. In a study at the Academic Center for Dentistry in Amesterdam, researchers put volunteers through two stressful experiences. In the first, a timed task that required memorizing a list followed by a short test, subjects believed they had control over the outcome. In the second, they weren’t in control: they had to sit through a gory (血淋淋 的) video on surgical procedures. Those who did well on the memory test had an increase in levels of immunoglobulin A, an antibody that’s the body’s first line of defense against germs. The video-watchers

experienced a downturn in the antibody. Stress prompts the body to produce certain stress hormones. In short bursts these hormones have a positive effect, including improved memory function. “They can help nerve cells handle information and put it into storage,” says Dr. Bruce McEwen of Rockefeller University in New York. But in the long run these hormones can have a harmful effect on the body and brain. “Sustained stress is not good for you,” says Richard Morimoto, a researcher at Northwestern University in Illinois studying the effects of stress on longevity（长寿）, “It’s the occasional burst of stress or brief exposure to stress that could be protective.” 1． The passage is mainly about _.
