In the 1960s, medical researchers Thomas Holmes and Richard Rahe developed a checklist 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 Holmes-Rahe 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 avoid all stressful events is a prescription (处方) for staying away from opportunities as well as troubles. Since any change can be stressful, a person who wants 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 (脆弱的) and passive in the face of adversity (逆境). 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.
According to the passage people who have experienced ups and downs may become______.
选项
A、nervous when faced with difficulties
B、physically and mentally strained
C、more capable of coping with adversity
D、indifferent toward what happens to them
答案
C
解析
推理题。首先要正确定位题干中的短语ups and downs盛衰,起伏,在此可理解为挫折,磨难。所以ups and downs=adversity。命题者在题干中使用同义或近义词来替换原文中的单词是命题的技巧之一。文章最后一段对人类的主动性和创造性提出疑问,进而给出解释:很多人经历逆境后会比先前更有精神活力(many comethrough periods of stress with more physical and mental vigor than they had before)。选项C.more capable of coping with adversity更有能力对待困境,是对文章的同义转述。
