But like so many other things, it is only too much stress（22） does you harm. It is - 6 -

Up to a certain point, the more stress you are under, the（24） _（good） your performance will be. Beyond a certain poi

20、nt, though, further stress will only lead to exhaustion, illness and finally a breakdown. You can tell when you are over the top and on the downward slope, by asking yourself （25） number of questions. Do you, for instance, feel that too much is being expected of you, and yet find（26） impossible to s

21、ay no？Do you find yourself getting impatient or（27） （annoy）with people over unimportant things？If the answer to all those questions is yes, you had better（28） （control）your stress, as you probably are under more stress than is good for you.To some extent, you can control the amount of stress in your

22、 life. Doctors have worked out a chart showing how much stress is involved（29）_various events.

Teachers place a lot

25、of importance on the_32_ that make each student special. The educational systems in these countries show these values. Students do not memorize information. Instead, they work _33_and find answers themselves. There is often discussion in the classroom. At an early age, students learn to form their o

26、wn ideas and opinions.In most Asian societies, on the contrary, people have the same language, history, and culture. Perhaps for this reason, the educational system in much of the Orient _34_ societys belief in group goals and purposes rather than individualism. Children in China, Japan, and Korea o

There is not much discussion. Instead, the students recite rules or information that they have memorized.There are advantages an

28、d disadvantages to both of these_36_ of education. For example, one advantage to the system in Japan is that students there learn much more math and science than American students learn by the end of high school. They also study more hours each day and more days each year than North Americans do. Th

Memorization is an_38_ learning method in Japanese schools, yet many students say that after an exam, they forget much of the information they have memorized.The advan

30、tage of the educational system in North America, on the other hand, is that students learn to think for themselves. The system prepares them for a society that values _39_ ideas. There is, however, a disadvantage. When students graduate from high school, they havent _40_as many basic rules and facts

33、 rises and falls in response to our beliefs about what is possibleSometimes the degree to which we are willing to （41） our belief systems determines the success of our inner economyFor example, imagine that your family of origin had a belief that musical talent was not something they（42） .
