As a child,Dr.Earle was always interested in wildlife and was never afraid to find out about nature.Her parents told her to touch animals and insects,and not to be afraid of them.When she was older,she was given the opportunity to develop this interest thanks to scholarships to study botany at university.She also took courses in sea diving and decided to devote herself to marine(海洋的) biology.It was this decision and her determined character that led her to have a truly remarkable career.

After several years of diving,Dr.Earle took part in a research expedition in an underwater laboratory.The laboratory was called a Tektite Habitat and it allowed divers to remain under the water to carry out research for weeks at a time.In 1970 an all-female group went on the sixth expedition of the Tektite Ⅱ scientists-in-the-water programme.Dr.Earle was asked to lead the expedition.Along with another four women—three scientists and an engineer—she stayed in the Tektite Habitat for two weeks.

Marine life has always been at the centre of Dr.Earle’s work and she is highly respected for her authority in this field.She is often asked to give talks by environmental groups about marine life as well as her plan to create a global network of marine protected areas.What makes her extra special is that she doesn’t look upon her work as a job,but as her vocation(天职) in life.

Advice About Stress: Don’t Let It Ruin Your Life!

There are many reasons why people suffer from stress.1.　　　We give you advice on how to find the cause or causes of your stress,and more importantly—how to deal with it.

For some,dealing with stress is a relatively simple matter,providing you really want to.2.

If the latter is the case,then don’t refuse forms of alternative medical advice and treatment.

3.　　　It can help you to perform or even OUT perform in certain situations.Athletes use it to great advantage to help them through that barrier that will put them on top!It can also help you in everyday life.However,if it is part of life’s routine,then something somewhere will suffer in body or mind—or both.

One of the important factors in treating stress is firstly admitting,accepting—or even discovering—that you are stressed.Only then can the causes of that stress be isolated.Harmful stress comes from a lot of causes.Our advice about stress is based upon medical facts,and of course common sense.4.　　　Getting the wrong advice can cause more harm than good.

It can be beaten in most cases,and can nearly always be controlled,or even turned to your own advantage.Firstly,determine if you are stressed or suffering any form of stress—take our stress test to find out.It may surprise you!Secondly,sort out what you can actually do to relieve the causes of your stress.5.　　　Thirdly,work on a change of lifestyle or whatever needs to be done to fight the causes that you have identified.

A.Stress can also be good!

B.Getting the right advice is not always easy.

C.Stress is a totally normal function of the body.

D.Accidents are often prevented by the stress reactions.

E.Surprisingly,some suffer from stress but are not even aware that they are doing so!

F.For others,stress can be so severe that it might need medical attention.

G.Like all illnesses—and suffering from stress is an illness—prevention is always better than cure.
