问题    Stress may be defined as the response of the body to any demand. Whenever people experience something pleasant or unpleasant, we say they are under stress. We call the pleasant kind "eustress" , the unpleasant kind "distress".
   People sometimes compare our lives with that of the caveman who didn’ t have to worry about the stock market or the atomic bomb. They forget that the caveman worried about being eaten by a bear or about dying of hunger—things that few people worry about today. It’ s not that people suffer more stress today: it’ s just that they think they do.
   It is inconceivable that anyone should have no stress at all. Most people who are ambitious and want to accomplish something live on stress. They need it. But excessive stress is by all means harmful. Worse, chronic exposure to stress over a long time may cause more serious diseases and may actually shorten your life.
   The most frequent causes of distress in man are psychological—lack of adaptability, not having a code of behavior. So the secret of coping with stress is not to avoid it, but to do what you like to do and what you are made to do, at your own rate. For most people, it is really a matter of learning how to behave in various situations. The most important thing is to have a code of life, to know how to live.
According to the passage, which of the following statements is NOT true?

选项 A、Everyone will suffer certain kinds of stress in his life.
B、Chronic exposure to stress may shorten your life.
C、Excessive stress is especially harmful to health.
D、Most people can learn to avoid stress.

答案D

解析 根据第三段第一句“It is inconceivable that anyone should have no stress at all.”和第四段第二句“…is not to avoid it,but to do what you like to do…”可知,一个人不可能没有任何压力,应对压力的秘诀不是逃避它,所以D项不正确。根据第三段内容可知,选项A、B、C均符合文章大意。
