Once you are in the habit of rushing through life, being on the 41 from
20、 morning till night, it is hard to slow down. But relaxation is 42 for a healthy mind and body. Stress is a natural part of everyday life and there is no way to avoid it. In fact, it is not the bad thing as often 43 to be. A certain amount of stress is vital to provide motivation and give purpose to
21、 life. It is only when the stress gets out of control that it can lead to poor 44 and ill health. The amount of stress a person can stand depends very much on the individual.

28、 cold, they may 58 their illness as being less severe.”Cohen and his colleagues had found in a 59 study that happier people seemed less likely to catch a cold, but some questions remained as to whether the emotional tendency itself had the effect.For the new study, the researchers had 193 healthy ad
29、ults with complete standard measures of personality tendency, health-consciousness and emotional “style”.
