6. Job Stress
Stress is another factor that can lead to
illness. Its not that stress causes a cold or a
flu, but it can lower your bodys resistance by
depressing the immune system. For many, a major
source of daily stress is their jobs, and stress
levels can be particularly high in a big city
emergency room, like this one. And unfortunately,
catching a cold is the least of a stressed-out
workers worries. More?

Book 2 Unit 7
What causes stress at work?
Recent research finds that todays working
people, though exposed to less physical stress,
are experiencing much more psychological stress
than ever in history. The factors for such stress
can be listed as follows (1) The demand of your
job
12
New Horizon College English
Book 2 Unit 7
(2) The control staff have over how you do your
work (3) The support you receive from your
colleagues and superiors (4) Your relationship
with your colleagues (5) Whether you understand
your roles or your responsibilities (6) High
staff turnover
13
New Horizon College English
Book 2 Unit 7
(7) Lack of communication with your fellows (8)
Lack of feedback on performance (9) Radical
changes in technology (10) Inadequate awareness
of roles and responsibilities (11) Lack of
skills as required at work.
14
New Horizon College English
Book 2 Unit 7
How to tackle the stress at work?
How to cope with work-oriented stress, therefore,
should call for more and more of our concern. As
shown in the video, hugging each other in the
morning is just one way of keeping under control
the stress in the workplace. The manager here
focuses on keeping workers happy to relieve their
psychological burden.
15
New Horizon College English
Book 2 Unit 7
So good relations improve the working environment
and lighten the stress. Besides, holding an
interesting and rewarding job enables one to cope
with stress. Finally, enhancement of skills as
required in particular tasks, cultivation of team
spirit, and tolerance of fellows personalities
can be strong preventive measures to help one
avoid the serious health consequences of stress.

Lighten Your Load and Save Your Life
Para. 1 If you often feel angry and overwhelmed,
like the stress in your life is spinning out of
control, then you may be hurting your heart.
Para. 2 If you dont want to break your own
heart, you need to learn to take charge of your
life where you canand recognize there are many
things beyond your control.
??
31
New Horizon College English
Book 2 Unit 7
Para. 3 So says Dr. Robert S. Eliot, author of a
new book titled From Stress to Strength How to
Lighten Your Load and Save Your Life. Hes a
clinical professor of medicine at the University
of Nebraska. Para. 4 Eliot says there are people
in this world that he calls hot reactors. For
these people, being tense may cause tremendous
and rapid increases in their blood pressure.
32
New Horizon College English
Book 2 Unit 7
Para. 5a Eliot says researchers have found that
stressed people have higher cholesterol levels,
among other things. Weve done years of work in
showing that excess alarm or stress chemicals can
literally burst heart muscle fibers.
33
New Horizon College English
Book 2 Unit 7
Para. 5b When that happens it happens very
quickly, within five minutes. It creates many
short circuits, and that causes crazy heart
rhythms. The heart beats like a bag of worms
instead of a pump. And when that happens, we
cant live.
34
New Horizon College English
Book 2 Unit 7
Para. 6 Eliot, 64, suffered a heart attack at age
44. He attributes some of the cause to stress.
For years he was a hot reactor. On the
exterior, he was cool, calm and collected, but on
the interior, stress was killing him. Hes
now doing very well.
??
35
New Horizon College English
Book 2 Unit 7
Para. 7 The main predictors of destructive levels
of stress are the FUD factorsfear, uncertainty
and doubttogether with perceived lack of
control, he says. Para. 8 For many people, the
root of their stress is anger, and the trick is
to find out where the anger is coming from.
Does the anger come from a feeling that
everything must be perfect? Eliot asks.
??
36
New Horizon College English
Book 2 Unit 7
Para. 9 Thats very common in professional
women. They feel they have to be all things to
all people and do it all perfectly. They think,
I should, I must, I have to. Good enough is
never good enough. Perfectionists cannot
delegate. They get angry that they have to carry
it all, and they blow their tops. Then they feel
guilty and they start the whole cycle over again.
37
New Horizon College English
Book 2 Unit 7
Para. 10 Others are angry because they have no
compass in life. And they give the same emphasis
to a traffic jam that they give a family
argument, he says. If you are angry for more
than five minutesif you stir the anger within
you and let it build with no safety outletyou
have to find out where its coming from.
38
New Horizon College English
Book 2 Unit 7
Para. 11 What happens is that the hotter people
get, physiologically, with mental stress, the
more likely they are to blow apart with some
heart problem. Para. 12 One step to calming
down is to recognize you have this tendency.
Learn to be less hostile by changing some of your
attitudes and negative thinking.
??
39
New Horizon College English
Book 2 Unit 7
Para. 13 Eliot recommends taking charge of your
life. If there is one word that should be
substituted for stress, its control. Instead of
the FUD factors, what you want is the NICE
factors ? new, interesting, challenging
experiences. Para. 14 You have to decide what
parts of your life you can control, he says.
Stop where you are on your trail and say, Im
going to get my compass out and find out what I
need to do.
40
New Horizon College English
Book 2 Unit 7
Para. 15 He suggests that people write down the
six things in their lives that they feel are the
most important things theyd like to achieve. Ben
Franklin did it at age 32. He wrote down things
like being a better father, being a better
husband, being financially independent, being
stimulated intellectually and remaining
even-temperedhe wasnt good at that.
41
New Horizon College English
Book 2 Unit 7
Para. 16 Eliot says you can first make a list of
12 things, then cut it down to 6 and set your
priorities. Dont give yourself impossible
things, but things that will affect your
identity, control and self-worth. Para. 17 Put
them on a note card and take it with you and look
at it when you need to. Since we cant create a
26-hour day we have to decide what things were
going to do.
42
New Horizon College English
Book 2 Unit 7
Para. 18 Keep in mind that over time these
priorities are going to change. The kids
grow up, the dog dies and you change your
priorities. Para. 19 From Eliots viewpoint, the
other key to controlling stress is to realize
that there are other troublesome parts of your
life over which you can have little or no
controllike the economy and politicians.
??
??
43
New Horizon College English
Book 2 Unit 7
Para. 20 You have to realize that sometimes with
things like traffic jams, deadlines and
unpleasant bosses, You cant fight. You cant
flee. You have to learn how to flow.

Sample Composition The worst experience I
have ever had was the day a friend and I were
driven out of a store. (Topic) One day my friend
and I went downtown to shop. We were wearing
casual clothes that hadnt been ironed and went
to one of the large upper-scale stores. (Cause)
50
New Horizon College English
Book 2 Unit 7
Our down-scale clothing immediately drew
prejudice. Some of the children we encountered
stared, pointed, and laughed adults gave us
long, doubtful look. Clerks in stores followed
our tracks to watch our every move. And they even
refused to let us use the bathroom. Both of us
felt that there was no room for us and that the
lack of trust and rude stares virtually drove us
out of the store. (Effect)
