四、閱讀測驗For many years, stress has been perceived as a possible cause of illness. Now some health experts have begunto look into the positive effects that stressful activity can have on people.It has been observed that patients report feelings of greater well-being after completing stressful tasks thathave been set for them by their doctors. It is believed that such mildly stressful activities— organizing the childrento go on vacation, preparing for a dinner party in just one afternoon— can improve our health and help to protect usfrom illness such as heart disease.New research supports these views. When we are forced to carry out a task under pressure, the stress causedcan damage cells in both our brain and body. The cells react to this “attack” by producing proteins to repairthemselves. Through this process of self-repair, cells become stronger and more resistant to future stress and evendisease.The reason for investigating “stress therapy” was the observation that, as we get older, the body becomesincreasingly less efficient. That’s why the body needs to be continually put under low levels of stress, to stimulatethe mind and body. However, it is important that this is the right kind of stress. Short-term stress is beneficial aslong as it is not too intense and will give a sense of achievement, like that gained by completing a task like puttingtogether furniture following the instruction manual. Long-term stress can be harmful as it is often associated withsituations for which there is no easy solution.
