It is important to understand that stress doesn’t come from an event itself, that is, from the things that are happening in our lives. It comes from the meaning we give to what has happened. For example, a crying baby may be stressful to one person, but it may not bother another person at all; a traffic jam may be stressful to one person while another person may be able to stay calm.

We can experience stress any time we feel we don’t have control. It can come from a feeling that we can’t do anything about a situation. Basically, it is the body’s way of showing anxiety or worry.

Stress is not just caused by our mental or emotional condition. It is also influenced by how tired we are, whether we have a balanced diet with enough vitamins and minerals, whether we get enough physical exercise, and whether we can relax.

The key point of relieving the stress is that we need to find what is causing the stress in our lives. Once we have found it, we should try to change that part of our lives. If we believe that we can control stress, we can begin to control our lives. Then we can start to use stress in a positive way.

If you’re a grandparent, shaking a leg with your grandchild might benefit both of you. That’s the conclusion of a new study from Israel, where researchers examined how dancing together 【1】 (positive) affected 16 grandmas and granddaughters. They’ve discovered it can encourage exercise and can also 【2】 (deep) ties between the two generations. Dancing “promoted physical activity even when the body was tired and weak,” said the study author. “This emphasizes the significance of the close and familiar relationship as 【3】 means to promote new experiences, 【4】 can occasionally seem impossible for the older person.”

The granddaughters teamed 【5】 their grandmas for three free-form dance sessions. They danced once a week for 10 to 15 minutes in their grandmother’s home. Granddaughters 【6】 (tell) to mirror their grandmas’ movements, encourage their abilities and let them rest when 【7】 (need). Videos of the dance sessions, 【8】 (person) diaries and interviews showed that the sessions led to positive feelings and better mood for the grandmothers. The granddaughters, meanwhile, got a new view on 【9】 (age).

Both groups were grateful and said the dance sessions strengthened【10】 (they) bonds, according to the study published recently in the journal Frontiers in Psychology.

In the 1850s, the first recorded games of ice hockey were played, and in the 1870s, the first set of ice hockey rules were written by a group of students at McGill University in Montreal, Canada. These rules set up the use of a puck (冰球) replacing a ball and decided the number of players to be nine per team. The year 1880 brought the organization of the first amateur hockey league. Over the next several years, ice hockey’s popularity spread across Canada. It was around 1893 that ice hockey was first played in the United States. There have been several ice hockey leagues. The best known is the National Hockey League, which came into being in 1917 in Canada.

Ice hockey has the oldest sports trophy(奖杯）in North America. It had become so widespread in Canada that a trophy was presented by the Governor General of Canada to be awarded to the top hockey team. Lord Stanley of Preston was the name of the Governor General, and the trophy became Known as the Stanley Cup.

Not many changes have been made to the initial rules set forth in the 1870s. The main ones have been the decrease from nine players to six and the progression of new and better equipment. In 1910-11, the game changed from two 30-minute periods to three 20-minute periods. In 1943-44, the red line at center ice was introduced to speed up the game. In 2005-06, goalkeeper equipment was downsized.

Never have I experienced such a special time. It is three months since I begin to study at home. I’ve become accustomed to have classes online. Between classes, I can discuss which I don’t understand in class with my classmates. I can also turn my teachers for help at any time. I take exercise every day at home to stay health. My parents and I usually watch news over dinner to get the latest informations on the disease. We feel sorry for the people who are affected by them both at home or abroad. Leaves turn green and flowers become fragrantly in the school yard. I hope everything returns to the normal. And I’m expecting to go back to school soon.

No one really knows for sure whether someone has an invisible disability unless it is disclosed (公开). The decision about whether to disclose an invisible disability can weigh heavily on an individual, making social and work situations especially challenging. The burden of hiding a disability creates stress in social and work situations that might affect health and well-being badly.

【2】 It also increases the possibility that the person will find and develop a social support network with others who might have similar conditions or experiences.

Despite the benefits of disclosing, research reports that individuals with invisible disabilities often do not disclose their conditions. 【3】 Reasons might be as follows. First, even if protected by law from discrimination, they still face potential prejudice from others. Second, when someone who “looks normal” says he has a disability and requests special services, people might question whether the disability really exists. 【4】 Sometimes, people might experience the symptoms without realizing.

【5】 They must carefully weigh the potential benefits of not disclosing against the cost to health and well-being. We should be aware of the unique challenges facing people with invisible disabilities and put ourselves in their shoes.

A.Invisible disabilities are more difficult to cure.

B.These conditions can make everyday activities difficult.

C.Individuals with invisible disabilities should make wise decisions.

D.On the contrary, disclosure relieves the stress of hiding the condition.

E.They might assume the person is only trying to gain special privileges.

F.Otherwise, people with invisible disabilities should disclose their conditions.

G.This is especially true if they are young and have recently acquired the disability.

Dear editor
