新四級(jí)聽力的聽寫練習(xí)第五單元 Lesson 2
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.

截止到70年代初期以前，數(shù)百項(xiàng)類似的研究追隨霍爾姆斯和瑞的研究，數(shù)以百萬計(jì)的在壓力下工作、生活的美國(guó)人對(duì)那些研究報(bào)告感到憂慮重重。從某種程度上講，這些研究可以壓縮成令人記憶猶新的信息，刊諸如精神壓力可以導(dǎo)致疾病的頭條資訊。該雜志載文說，如果你想保持身心的健康，你就得避免精神壓力事件。
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 prescriptionfor 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.
但是這種過分簡(jiǎn)單的忠告是沒有辦法遵循的。即使有壓力的事件是非常危險(xiǎn)的，許多事比如一位親人的離世是不可避免的。而且任何避免所有壓力事件酌警告都是遠(yuǎn)離麻煩的同時(shí)也在原理機(jī)會(huì)。因?yàn)槿魏紊钭兓伎赡苁怯袎毫Φ模粋€(gè)想要徹底擺脫壓力的人將從不結(jié)婚生子，不去找新的新的工作，也從不搬家
The notion that all stress makes you sick also ignores a lot of what we know about people. It assumes were 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 mental strain.
一切壓力都會(huì)致病的觀念忽略許多人的弱點(diǎn)，他們假設(shè)在逆境面前，我們都是脆弱的、被動(dòng)的。但是人的創(chuàng)新性和創(chuàng)造性怎么樣了呢?很多經(jīng)歷了不同時(shí)期壓力的人，在身心上比以前更加具有活力了。當(dāng)然，我們也知道，長(zhǎng)時(shí)期生活在無變化、無挑戰(zhàn)的狀態(tài)中，會(huì)導(dǎo)致厭倦和身心的壓抑。

Negative events like serious illness of a family member were high on the list, but so were some positive life-changing events, like marriage.
像家庭成員有重病之糞的負(fù)面事件，在這種事件表中名列榜首。但是像結(jié)婚這樣正面的生活變化事件也同樣列在壓力之榜首。
