In the 1960s, medical researchers Thomas Holmes and Richard Rahe developed a check- list of stressful events. They appreciated the tricky point that any major change can be stressful. Negative events like "serious illness of a family member" were high on the list, but so were some positive life-changing events, like marriage. When you take the HolmesRahe test you must remember that the score does not reflect how you deal with stress--it only shows how much you have to deal with. And we now know that the way you handle these events dramatically affects your chances of staying healthy.
By the early 1970s, hundreds of similar studies had followed Holmes and Rahe. And millions of Americans who work and live under stress worried over the reports. Somehow, the research got boiled down to a memorable message. Women’s magazines ran headlines like "Stress causes illness!" If you want to stay physically and mentally healthy, the articles said, avoid stressful events.
But such simplistic advice is impossible to follow. Even if stressful events are dangerous many--like the death of a loved one---are impossible to avoid. Moreover, any warning to a- void all stressful events is a prescription for staying away from opportunities as well as trouble. Since any change can be stressful, a person who wanted to be completely free of stress would never marry, have a child, take a new job or move.
The notion that all stress makes you sick also ignores a lot of what we know about people. It assumes we’re all vulnerable and passive in the face of adversity. But what about human initiative and creativity? Many come through periods of stress with more physical and mental vigor than they had before. We also know that a long time without change or challenge can lead to boredom, and physical and mental strain. [br] The studies on stress in the early 1970’s led to______.
选项
A、widespread concern over its harmful effects
B、great panic over the mental disorder it could cause
C、an intensive research into stress-related illnesses
D、popular avoidance of stressful jobs
答案
A
解析
根据文章第二段第二句话“And millions of Americans who work and live under stress worried over the reports.”可以看出,数百万的在压力下工作和生活的美国人因为“the reports”,,而忧心忡忡,而“the reports”,,就是指20世纪70年代初在“Holmes-Rahe’s medical research”之后的一些研究。所以[A]符合题意。通过文章第二段我们可以看到,20世纪?0年代初所做的“studies on stress”引起了人们的“worry”而不是“great panic over the mental disorder”,可见,[B]不符合题意。从第二段可以看出,在70年代初期的“studies on stress”,,并没有引起人们对“stress-related illness”的深入研究,所以,[C]不是正确答案。文章的第二段最后一句话援引一家妇女杂志的话建议人们要想保持身心健康,就得回避“stressful events”,而作者认为“many are impossible to avoid”,由此可见,“popular avoidance of stressful jobs”是不可能的,故,[D]也不符合题意。
