问题     Two-way Discussion
    We’ve been talking about taking breaks from work or study, and now I’d like to discuss with you one or two more general questions related to this. Let’s consider first the topic of relaxation.
    What do most people in your country do to relax?
    Some people think that relaxation techniques such as meditation should be introduced into the workplace and schools. What’s your opinion?
    Do you think that people will be more or less relaxed in the future? Why?
    Now, let’s talk about stress.
    What do you think are some of the reasons why people experience stress?
    Do you think there are any advantages to stress?
    What are some of the effects of stress on people in your country?

答案 People tend to do lots of different things. Some people like to do sports or go running, or do yoga and other people like to go out and relax with friends over dinner and drinks. Others relax by reading a book or doing more quiet things. I guess it depends on the person.
    I definitely agree that techniques such as meditation and learning how to manage stress are very important. I think it would be a great idea to implement systems in the workplace because a stress-free environment is a more productive one. I have heard of a number of companies who offer free massage at work to their staff and it is very successful. And certainly teaching children relaxation techniques would be very beneficial so I think that introducing these types of things into schools is a forward thinking idea.
    It’s hard to say. As the world becomes busier and there are so many more demands on people, I think it might become more difficult for them to relax. Technology has made us so constantly available to others, particularly in terms of work, that I think people might be less relaxed in the future but on the other hand there seems to be more awareness of the negative effects of stress and ways to manage it.
    I think there are many reasons, and they can be different for different individuals, but it depends quite a lot on personality. For instance, if you are quite a highly strung individual then this could be a contributing factor to stress, whereas if you are quite relaxed and laid back you might not get stressed so easily. However, I think the main reasons people get stressed include work and study concerns, relationship difficulties as well as time pressures and deadlines.
    I guess I hadn’t really considered that. But yes, believe there are because I think a little bit of stress can be quite motivating and can help people to get things done efficiently and on time. It can give people a burst of energy so in that sense a small amount of stress can be productive.
    I think the physical effects of stress are huge. People get sick more often, have more headaches and neck and back pain, and in the extreme they can sometimes have heart attacks and so on. And the psychological impact is also considerable, as people can become depressed and anxious as a result of stress and this in turn can have an effect on their friendships and relationships.
