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 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 (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 straia (319 words)
Why is "such simplistic advice" (Line 1, Para. 3) impossible to follow?
选项
A、No one can stay on the same job for long.
B、No prescription is effective in relieving stress.
C、People have to get married someday.
D、You could be missing opportunities as well.
答案
D
解析
本题属于推理题。第三段段落结构比较清晰,首句提出一个观点:如此单纯的忠告很难遵循(such simplistic advice is impossible to follow),之后便给出详细解释:(“Moreover”引出了更为重要的原因)任何回避压力的忠告使你远离麻烦的同时也失去了机会(Moreover,any warning to avoid all stressful events is a prescription for staying away from opportunities as well as trouble)。最后作者给出自己的观点或结论:“既然任何变化都可能带来压力,一个想完全没有紧张压力的人只能永远不结婚生子,永远不找新工作,或搬迁”。选项D“同时你也会失去机会”,是对本段原因部分的同义转述。
