For many years doctors have warned us about the dangers of stress and have given us advice about how to cut down our stress levels. Everyone agrees that long-term（长期的）stress, for example, having to look after someone who has been ill for a long time, or stressful situations, for example, being stopped in a traffic jam, is bad for our health and should be avoided(避免)whenever possible.

However, some medical experts now believe that certain kinds of stress many actually be good for us.

Dr. Dirk Marion, an anti-ageing expert, says that "good stress" is helpful to our health. And in fact, it may help us stay young and attractive and even live longer.

According to Dr. Marion, running for a bus or having to work to a deadline(最后期限)are examples of "good stress", which are situations with short-term, low or moderate stress. The stress usually makes us react quickly and efficiently, and gives us a sense of achievement-we did it!

Other stressful activities that Dr. Marion recommends as being good stress include cleaning your room over a

weekend, packing your suitcase in a hurry to the train station on time, or shopping for a party during your lunch break.

So next time your teacher tells you that she wants to see your homework finished and on her desk in 45 minutes, don't be worried or nervous; just think of it as "good stress" which will be helpful for your long-term health!

46. According to Dr. Marion, all the following are "good stress" EXCEPT _______.

A. finishing one's homework in 45 minutes B. shopping for a party during lunch break

C. trying to catch a bus D. taking care of someone who's been ill for long

47. What is the main idea of the passage?

A. Too much stress is bad for our health. B. Some kinds of stress are good for our health.

C. Getting stressed is a big problem now. D. People should try not to get stressed.

48. The last paragraph of the article must be written for _______.

A. students B. teachers C. doctors D. parents

B

N

C

A young man went to the local expert(专家) on gems and said he wanted to become a gemologist(珠宝家). The expert turned him down because he feared the youth would not have the patience to learn. The young man asked for a chance. Finally, the expert told the youth, "Be here tomorrow."

The next morning the expert put a jade(玉) stone in the youth's hand and told him to hold it. The expert then went about his work, cutting, weighing and setting gems. The boy sat quietly and waited.

The following morning the expert again put the jade stone in the youth's hand and told him to hold it. On the third, fourth and fifth days, the expert asked the young man to do the same thing. On the sixth day, the youth held the jade stone but he could no longer stand(忍受) the silence. "Master, when am I going to learn something?" he asked.

"You will learn," the expert said and went about his business.

Several more days went by and the youth almost lost his patience. But one morning as the master put the stone in the youth's hand, the young man said without looking at his hand, "This is not the same jade stone!"

"You have begun to learn," said the master.

Practice makes perfect. The experience we learned from practice teaches us and develops our abilities. Experience is the best teacher. Even the most successful person had no absolute confidence once. It is experience that gives people confidence. The truth is: if you do the work and gain the experience, you'll have more confidence because you'll actually know what you're doing.

A. refused B. accepted C. forgave D. doubted

54. The expert let the young man hold the jade stone for so many days because he wanted to see if the young man was _______.

A. brave B. patient C. clever D. honest

55. What may be the best title for this passage?
