There is a famous expression in English, “Stop the world, I want to get off!” This expression means a feeling of fear or stress, which makes a person want to stop whatever they are doing, try to relax, and become calm again. Stress is feelings of worry about your work or personal life. It is one of the most common causes of health problems in modern life. Too much stress leads to physical, emotional, and mental health problems.

There are many physical effects of stress. Stress can affect (影响) the heart. It can cause high blood pressure. Stress can affect the respiratory system (呼吸系统). It can lead to asthma—a medical condition that makes breathing difficult. Stress can affect the stomach. It can cause stomach aches (疼痛). These are only a few examples of illnesses resulting from stress.

Emotions are also easily affected by stress. People suffering from stress often feel worried. They may feel tired all the time. When people are under stress, they often overreact (过激反应) to little problems. For example, a kind mother under a lot of stress at work may shout at her child for dropping a glass of juice.

Suffering from stress for a long time can lead to serious mental illnesses. Depression, a very strong feeling of sadness and hopelessness, can be the result of stress. Eating disorders (紊乱) are sometimes caused by stress and are often made worse by stress. If stress is allowed to go on, one’s mental health is in danger.

It is clear that stress is a serious problem. It has a great influence on our health, our feelings, and our minds. So, reduce stress—stop the world and rest for a while.

Phyllis Wheatley is regarded as America’s first black poet. She was born in Senegal, Africa in about 1753 and brought to America at about the age of seven. John and Susannah Wheatley bought her for three pounds at a slave (奴隶) market in Boston in 1761. Phyllis was soon accepted as one of the family, which included being raised and educated with the Wheatley’s twin 15-year-old children, Mary and Nathaniel. At that time, most females, even from better families, could not read and write, but Mary was probably one of the best educated young women in Boston. Mary wanted to become a teacher, and in fact, it was Mary who decided to take charge of Phyllis Wheatley’s education. Phyllis soon showed her remarkable talents. At the age of twelve she was reading the Greek and Latin classics.

At the age of thirteen, Phyllis wrote her first poem. She became a Boston sensation (引起轰动的人物) after she wrote a poem on the death of the preacher George Whitfield in 1770. It became common to read Phyllis Wheatley’s poetry in polite society. Mary had tried to interest publishers in Phyllis Wheatley’s poems, but once they heard she was black they weren’t interested.

Then in 1773 Phyllis went with Nathaniel, who was now a businessman, to London. Thirty-nine of her poems were published in London as Poems on Various Subjects. It was the first book published by a black American. In 1775 Phyllis wrote a poem about George Washington and sent it to him. He responded by praising her talents and inviting her to visit his headquarters. After both of her benefactors (恩人) died in 1777 and in 1778, Phyllis was freed.
