  压力是你真正担忧某件事情获得的一种感受，这种担忧困扰你数小时、数天，使你感到沮丧、害怕、生气。你会发现难以下咽，难以入眠，或者吃得更多、睡得更多……
  太大压力是有害的，可能引起心脏病之类的严重问题。但是适度的压力使身体、精神保持警觉，使人表现更完美，如同在班上表演或冲刺在终点线上那样。
  但是，如果你遭受到严重压力，看看这些简单快速的方法放松一下吧！首先，你可以去跑跑步，打打球，骑一会儿单车，因为运动会产生内啡肽以对抗压力。第二，良好的休息非常重要，每晚获得至少8小时睡眠。第三，吃健康、平衡的饮食，包括各种食物。还有，向您信赖的朋友倾诉，闷在心里会更糟糕，与挚友交流使你感受更美妙，他们可能给你建议并帮助你解决问题。（潜龙家教谭老师译文，不当之处请您指正，谢谢！）
