问题            Stress Level Tied to Education Level
People with less education suffer fewer stressful days, according to a report in the current issue of the Journal of Health and Social Behavior.
However, the study also found that when less-educated people did suffer stress it was more severe and had a larger impact on their health.
From this, researchers have concluded that the day-to-day factors that cause stress are not random. Where you are in society determines the kinds of problems that you have each day, and how
well you will cope with them.
The research team interviewed a national sample of 1,031 adults daily for eight days about their stress level and health. People without a high school diploma reported stress on 30 percent of the study days, people with a high school degree reported stress 38 percent of the time, and people with college degrees reported stress 44 percent of the time.
"Less advantaged people are less healthy on a daily basis and are more likely to have downward tums in their health." lead researcher Dr. Joseph Grzywacz,of Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center, said in a prepared statement. "The downward tums in health were connected with daily stressors. and the effect of daily stressors on their health is much more devastating for the less advantaged."
Grzywacz suggested follow-up research to determine why less-educated people report fewer days of stress when it is known their stress is more acute and chronic.
"If something happens every day, maybe it’s not seen as a stressor" Grzywacz says. "Maybe it is just life."
stressor n.紧张刺激物
devastating adj.毁灭性的
follow-up n. (对病人的)随访

选项 A、family size
B、social status
C、body weight
D、work experience

答案B

解析 从文章题目便可得知,一个人的紧张程度与其受教育的程度挂钩,而受教育的程度又直接影响一个人的社会地位。因此,文章第3段提到,一个人的社会地位决定了其每闩所面临的问题和处理这些问题的能力。由此可见,紧张程度与社会地位密切相关。
