Question

What do you think of stress? Is it a good thing or a bad thing?
Most of the students think stress can do harm (伤害) 1 them in some ways. There’s a story about a teenager in a middle school. He even 2 his study because of the stress from school and family. We also usually 3 that someone turns to psychological doctors because of heavy working stress. There is no doubt (疑问) that some people think stress is a dangerous wolf.
On the other hand, other people argue that stress is not a bad thing. They 4 stress can produce momentum (动力）in the end. For them, right attitude and action can reduce (减少) stress and make it 5. When I was a child, my mom always pushed me to study hard. She wished I could go to an ideal 6 for further education. I experienced stress for the first time. To a poor family, I deeply knew 7 was not easy for us, and everything my mom did to me was just to hope I could live a better life in the future. 8 the saying goes, “No pains, no gains.” So I did what my mom expected because I didn’t want to let her down. At last, I did measure up (达到标准）to my mom’s expectation and go to college 9. Thanks to my mom’s push! Thanks to the stress! In this way, I don’t think stress is a bad thing.
Overall, stress is not a bad thing in 10. The key is how we deal with it.

主旨大意:你怎样看待压力？它是好事情还是坏事情呢？有的人认为它对人们造成很大的伤害，比如因压力过大而放弃学业或者向心理医生求助，而有的人则认为压力并不是坏事，它能促进人们把压力转化为动力，发挥潜力。其实，压力本身并没有错，重要的是我们对待压力的态度。
1. C do harm to sb. 为固定搭配，意思为“对某人有害”。
2. C begin with以……开始；show off炫耀；give up放弃；cheer for为……欢呼。这个例子是围绕该段的中心句----第一句话来举的例子，所以应该是不好的一方面，那位男生因为压力放弃了学业。
3. D wonder猜想；decide决定；promise允诺；hear听说。只有hear符合语境。
4. B doubt怀疑；believe相信；disagree不同意；forget忘记。本段内容围绕与上一段相反的观点来写，认为压力是对人们有力的，所以用believe符合文意。
5. A useful有用的；difficult困难的；strange奇怪的；terrible可怕的。对待压力的正确态度和行为能够减少压力，使它有用。
6. B 妈妈希望我上一所理想的大学深造。
7. A 生活的艰难让“我”知道了生活的不易。下文中“hope I could live a better life in the future”也有所提示。
8. C as the saying goes为固定搭配，意思为“正如俗话所说，常言道”。
9. D quietly安静地；wildly疯狂地；specially特别地；successfully成功地。
10. C stress为无生命的名词，用itself来表示其反身代词形式。
