【解析】

短文讲了我们在日常生活中感受着很多压力，并给出了一些缓解压力的方法。

【1】细节理解题。A.从来不依赖酒精或香烟。B.不吃安眠药就能入睡。C.经常和别人交流。D.事情出错时容易生气。根据上文表格中所列的压力的症状5. get angry when things go wrong? 当事情出错时生气？可知“当事情出错时，容易生气”属于有压力的症状，故选D。

【2】推理判断题。A.许多社会问题会造成压力。根据上文There are many causes, such as death, marriage, …and so on. 有许多原因，如死亡，婚姻，金钱，搬家，换工作，结束关系等。可知许多社会问题会造成压力。所以此项说法正确。B.做瑜伽是缓解压力的最有用的方法。根据上文Doing yoga, … are all common ways of relieving stress. 做瑜伽是缓解压力的常见方法，而不一定是最有用的方法。所以此项说法错误。C.年轻人比老年人承受更多的压力。根据上文Men, women and young people all suffer from stress. 男人、女人和年轻人都承受着压力。本文没有写道年轻人比老年人承受压力的比较，所以所以此项说法错误。D.只有当所有问题都是“是”的时候，你才会受到压力。根据上文If you have more than two “Yes” among these questions, you must be suffering from stress. 可知如果你在这些问题中有两个以上的“是”，你一定在承受压力，所以所以此项说法错误。由此可知，只有A项说法正确，故选A。

【3】推理判断题。根据上文Doing yoga, chewing gum and playing with worry beads are all common ways of relieving stress.和However, doctors now say that there are simpler ways. …because crying is the natural way of relieving stress.做瑜伽、口香糖、玩念珠是缓解压力的常用方法。然而，现在医生说有更简单的方法，他们说，人应该经常的微笑，当你大笑或微笑时，你的身体很放松。他们还说，人特别是男人应该更经常哭泣，因为哭是一种自然缓解压力的方式，可知文中没有提到吃有助于睡眠的药，故选D。

在做阅读理解题时，注意段落与段落之间逻辑关系以及对篇章的整体理解，看不懂的词跳过，根据上下文猜其意思，掌握一些常识，根据问题找到关键语句，不要以个人的主观想象代替文章的事实，要根据文章事实进行合乎逻辑的推理判断，选择正确答案。在做细节理解题时一定要找到文章中的原句，和题干进行比较，再做出正确的选择；在做推理判断题时不要以个人的主观想象代替文章的事实，要根据文章事实进行合乎逻辑的推理判断。如第2小题的选项C.年轻人比老年人承受更多的压力。根据上文Men, women and young people all suffer from stress. 男人、女人和年轻人都承受着压力。本文没有写道年轻人比老年人承受压力的比较，所以所以此项说法错误。
