What will you accomplish today, tomorrow, or this week? Do you have stress? Stress is your reaction to the physical, mental, or emotional changes in your life. Everyone is affected by stressful situations. It is easy to acknowledge that a major life change, such as losing one’s job or a death in the family, causes stress. One can also “be stressed” by an accumulation of daily pressures, such as long commutes in traffic, a hectic (繁忙的) work schedule, or disagreements with co-workers or family members.

Stress, if continuous, can affect your physical, mental, and emotional well-being. The following information will help you to reduce your risk of health problems.

Let us first take a look at what stress does to the body. When confronted with an alarming situation, our brain releases adrenalin（肾上腺素）and other chemicals which cause our heart rate and blood pressure to increase, our breathing to become faster and our digestion（消化） to slow

10. There is no doubt ______ the driver is responsible for the accident.

down, and we feel a sudden rush of energy.

When we perceive that the danger has passed, our brain stops producing the chemicals that cause the physical reactions, and our bodies return to their normal state. If we continue to react to the event, even after the event has passed, our minds and our bodies stay in a state of alarm. If this state of tension maintains, it can contribute to minor health problems.

The next step is to identify the sources of your stress and to write them down. Often the act of writing down your problems may give you an opportunity to think through some possible solutions.

It will be easy for you to record your major life changes such as acquiring a new job, moving, or losing your job. When these changes occur, be sure to manage your stress.

Stress, if continuous, can affect our physical, mental, and emotional well-being.

3. Why does the author think that recording your problems is a good way to release your stress? A. Because it is easy to record what your stress is.

Philip Pullman was born in Norwich on October 19th, 1946. The early part of his life was spent traveling all over the world. He spent part of his childhood in Australia, where he first met

the wonders of comics, and grew to love Superman and Batman in particular.

From the age of 11, he lived in North Wales. It was a time when children were allowed to roam anywhere, to play in the streets, and to wander over the hills, and he took full advantage of it.

After he left school he went to Exeter College, Oxford, to read English. He did a number of odd jobs for a while, and then moved back to Oxford to become a teacher. He taught at various middle schools for twelve years, and then moved to Westminster College, Oxford, to be a part-time lecturer. He taught courses on the Victorian novels and on folk tales, and also a course examining how words and pictures fit together. He eventually left teaching in order to write full-time.

His first published novel was for adults, but he began writing for children when he was a teacher. Some of his novels were based on plays he had written for his school pupils, such as The Ruby in The Smoke.

Philip Pullman believes firmly in the virtues of healthy exercise and a moderate diet. It makes him feel good. The exercise he normally takes most is unscrewing the top of a whisky bottle. If he liked the taste of tobacco, he would smoke vigorously(果断地). He is fond of sport, and plays it by watching television. He is a big fan of Neighbours, but that is the only soap he watches, as Neighbours gives him quite enough to think about.

As far as he can tell, Philip Pullman is moderately harmless and useful. He would like to carry on doing what he’s doing now, and there seems to be no reason why he shouldn’t, but if it suddenly became against the law to write stories, he would break the law without a second’s hesitation.

5. Of the following statements, which one is TRUE according to the passage? A. Philip Pullman worked as a teacher all his life.

B. Philip Pullman began to like fantasy stories when he was a child. C. Philip Pullman’s neighbors are his good friends. D. Philip Pullman has very bad habits.

6. What can we conclude according to the second paragraph? A. Philip Pullman was greatly influenced by his English teacher.
