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 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 metal strain.

答案
In the 1960s, medical researchers concluded that any major change can be stressful including both negative and positive events, while by the early 1970s, many researches showed that stressful events do harm to our physical and mental health so that if we want to stay healthy, we must avoid stressful events. But this advice is impossible to follow. As we all know, stress is a natural part of everyday life and there is no way to avoid it. As the pace of modern life continues to increase, we are always feeling stressful. Each coin has two sides. A certain amount of stress is vital to provide motivation and meaning to our life. It is pressure that propels our progress and contributes to our success. It is only when the stress gets out of control that it can lead to poor performance and ill health. Furthermore, humans are full of initiative and creativity that they can face adversity and challenges bravely. Personally, I think it is impossible to avoid stress once one is entirely devoted to things he pursues. Facing all stress in our daily life, We should keep confident and initiative, and try our best to deal with it. Only in this way can we live a happy and healthy life.
解析
这是一篇总结加评论式文章。这篇材料讲了一个压力对人是否有害的问题,文章从六十年代一项有关压力的医学研究讲起,称研究的结果是any major change can be stressful (任何大的变迁都会引起压力) ,而这种大的变迁既包括消极事件,也包括积极事件。而到了七十年代初,一家杂志称压力会引发疾病,保持身心健康的方法就是避开压力事件 (if we want to stay healthy, we must avoid stressful events)。材料第三段和第四段分别反驳了“保持身心健康的方法就是避开压力事件”和“压力会引发疾病”这两个观点。由此不难发现,考生应围绕“压力”这一关键词展开,并重点放在如何应对压力这一问题上。
在写作时,可采取常见的三段式写作,考生首先要根据题目的要求总结所给文章材料的大意。总结时要简明扼要,抓住关键的中心思想;然后,将自己从所给材料中获得的启发或者是对材料的评论作为这篇作文的主体来写,要注意语言的连贯性。最后,考生还要对自己的观点进行总结概括。
