实用英语口语(高级) ms of stress
PROFESSOR：令人惊奇的是，当我们受到压力时，我们的身体会做出和几千年前我们的祖先遇到危险时一样的反应：“打还是跑”。
This is when our brain releases chemicals that give us extra
strength and speed, so that, in any dangerous situation, we
can either stay and fight, or run away. This is called a
'stress response', and it can be pretty useful. It doesn't
just help you escape from dangerous situations, it also comes
in handy if you're competing in a sporting event, have an
important deadline to meet at work, or are taking an exam.
However, the problem is, when we find ourselves in a
situation that causes us stress on a regular basis for
example worrying about our job, money, family or relationship
our brain still produces these 'Fight or Flight' chemicals.
PROFESSOR：Our heart beats faster, our blood flows more
quickly, we feel hot, we sweat and, to save energy, we even
stop digesting our food. This, of course, can be bad for our
health. In fact, if we suffer from this kind of 'low level'
stress over a long period of time, it can make us seriously
ill. So, how can you tell if you or someone you know is
suffering from stress? Well, there are a number of physical
and behavioral symptoms to look out for.
PROFESSOR：Physical symptoms of stress can include high
blood pressure, shortness of breath, chest pains, headaches,
muscle pain, insomnia, hair loss and allergies. Behavioral
symptoms can vary, but any change in someone's normal
personality, such as greater anxiety, sudden mood swings or
an unusually negative outlook on life, can be signs that the
person is stressed. Stress can also make existing behavioral
problems, like alcohol or substance abuse, worse. Being
stressed also means you don't look after yourself. If you're
stressed out, it's important to make sure you get enough
sleep, take regular breaks, eat and drink healthily and get
regular exercise.
PROFESSOR：Conversely, falling into a cycle of negative
lifestyle habits just makes things worse. Despite an
increasing number of scientific studies, the link between
stress and serious illness is still a controversial one. Not
all scientists agree that stress, in itself, causes illness
or disease. However, stress has been linked to high
cholesterol levels in the blood, gastrointestinal problems
and even diabetes. Stress may also put people at greater risk
of heart attacks and strokes.
PROFESSOR：But don't start getting too stressed out about
stress! The most important thing to remember is this： if you
live a well balanced life, and that means work life and home
life, you can manage your stress levels independently,
without any cause for concern.
