Stress Level Tied to Education Level

　　People with less education suffer fewer stressful days, according to a report in the current issue of the Journal of Health and Social Behavior．

　　However, the study also found that when less-educated people did suffer stress it was more severe and had a larger impact on their health．

　　From this, researchers have concluded that the day-to-day factors that cause stress are not random．Where you are in society determines the kinds of problems that you have each day, and how well you will cope with them．

　　The research team interviewed a national sample of 1,031 adults daily for eight days about their stress level and health．People without a high school diploma(畢業(yè)文憑)reported stress on 30 percent of the study days, people with a high school degree reported stress 38 percent of the time, and people with college degrees reported stress 44 percent to the time．

　　“Less advantaged people are less healthy on a daily basis and are more likely to have downward turns in their health,” lead researcher Dr．Joseph Grzywacz, of Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center, said in a prepared statement．“The downward turns in health were connected with daily stressors and the effect of daily stressors on their health is much more devastating(毀滅性的)for the less advantaged．”Grzywacz suggested follow-up research to determine why less-educated people report fewer days of stress when it is known their stress in more acute and chronic．

　　“If something happens every day, maybe it’s not seen as a stressor” Grzywacz says．“Maybe it is just life．”

     For most students, the time of exams is very stressful and difficult. Some students find the exam time
is so bad that they become ill, because they are afraid of failing, and they are afraid of letting their parents
and families down. If exams are really making you ill or worried, don't hide your feelings. Talk to someone
about it. If he or she doesn't help you, ask someone else.
     Here are some top tips given by educational psychologists (教育心理學(xué)家):
     (1) Ask a teacher about how to revise and about exam skills- how to work when you are in an exam.
     (2) Take a short rest during your time of work and revision. If your mind is tired, it will not remember
well.    
     (3) Revise at the time when you know you will work at your best.
     (4) Get enough sleep, and eat healthy food.
     (5) If you feel bad, talk to someone about your worries. But don't be too relaxed! Some stress over
exams makes you work hard for them.
     (6) If it upsets you to talk to your friends about an exam when it is finished, don't do it! In fact, don't
even think about the exam you have finished. What is done has been done. You cannot change what you
have written!    
     (7) If you are studying in the evening, don't go straight to bed afterwards. Your mind will still be "going
round and round"- thinking too much. So something else, maybe walk or get exercise. Choose something
that will relax you, and make you think of other things.
Problems Suggestions
Don't know how to work for an exam. Ask a teacher about 1_______.
Feel tired. 2_______.
Feel bad or worried. It's necessary of you to 3_______.
It upsets you to talk to your friends about

       For most students, the time of exams is very stressful and difficult. Some people find exam time so bad
that they become ill, because they are afraid of failing; they are afraid of letting their parents and families down.

      How to get through exams? Here are some top tips by educational psychologists (教育心理學(xué)家):

      Take short rests during your time of work and revision. If your mind is tired, it will not remember well.
