According to a recent survey conducted by Wuhan University of Hubei province, 70 percent of the 2,000 students who are going to take the college and high school entrance exams feel under pressure (压力).Stress is a normal physical response (反应) to things that make people feel worried or break their balance of life in some way.Stress isnt always bad. Sometimes, peoples stress is important during emergency situations, such as when a driver has to stop his car to avoid an accident. Sometimes, stress can help people do their best like while getting ready before a big competition or exam.However, too much or long-term stress gives people a stress overload (负荷过多). People with stress overloads may have problems remembering or concentrating on things. They are quick to get angry or lose patience.

For example, you might manage it by getting a good nights sleep, or by exercising every day.Another good way to deal with stress is to ask parents or friends for help. Everyone has stress.
