问题    Stress may be defined as the response of the body to any demand. Whenever people experience something pleasant or unpleasant, we say they are under stress. We call the pleasant kind "eustress" , the unpleasant kind "distress".
   People sometimes compare our lives with that of the caveman who didn’ t have to worry about the stock market or the atomic bomb. They forget that the caveman worried about being eaten by a bear or about dying of hunger—things that few people worry about today. It’ s not that people suffer more stress today: it’ s just that they think they do.
   It is inconceivable that anyone should have no stress at all. Most people who are ambitious and want to accomplish something live on stress. They need it. But excessive stress is by all means harmful. Worse, chronic exposure to stress over a long time may cause more serious diseases and may actually shorten your life.
   The most frequent causes of distress in man are psychological—lack of adaptability, not having a code of behavior. So the secret of coping with stress is not to avoid it, but to do what you like to do and what you are made to do, at your own rate. For most people, it is really a matter of learning how to behave in various situations. The most important thing is to have a code of life, to know how to live.
In the third sentence of the third paragraph, "it" refers to______.

选项 A、stress
B、ambitious people
C、something
D、confidence

答案A

解析 根据第三段第二、三句“Most people who are ambitious and want to accomplish something live on stress.They need it.”可知,大部分有野心、想干大事的人都生活在压力之下,他们也需要压力。接着又讲述了压力过多的害处,所以it指代的是stress。故选A。
