Humans should not try to avoid stress any more than they would keep away from food, love or exercise.	人类不应该试图逃避压力，就像他们不应该逃避食物、爱情或运动一样。

While there's no question that prolonged stress is harmful, several studies suggest that challenging situations in which you're able to rise to the occasion can be good for you.	虽然长期处于压力之下无疑有害，但一些研究表明，在充满挑战的环境中，只要你能够克服困难，就能对人有益。

In a 2010 study of 158 hospital nurses, those who faced considerable work demands but coped with the challenge were more likely to say they were in good health than those who felt they couldn't get the job done.	2010 年对 158 名医院护士进行的一项研究表明，那些面临大量工作要求但能应对挑战的护士比那些觉得自己无法完成工作任务的护士更有可能表示自己身体健康。
Stress that you can manage may also boost immune function.	您可以控制的压力也可能增强免疫功能。
In a study at the Academic Center for Dentistry in Amsterdam, researchers put volunteers through two stressful experiences.	在阿姆斯特丹牙科学术中心的一项研究中，研究人员让志愿者经历了两次紧张的体验。
In the first, a timed task that required memorizing a list followed by a short test, subjects believed they had control over the outcome.	第一个任务是定时任务，要求记住一份清单，然后进行一个简短的测试，受试者相信他们可以控制结果。
In the second, they weren't in control: They had to sit through a horrible video on surgical procedures.	第二次，他们失去了控制：他们必须观看一段有关手术过程的恐怖视频。
Those who did well on the memory test had an increase in levels of certain antibody (the body's first line of defense against germs)	那些在记忆力测试中表现良好的人的某种抗体水平有所提高（人体抵御细菌的第一道防线）

The video-watchers experienced a downturn in the antibody.	观看视频的受试者的抗体水平下降。
Stress prompts the body to produce kinds of hormones.	压力会促使身体产生各种激素。
In short bursts these hormones have positive effect, including improved memory function.	这些激素在短时间内会产生积极作用，包括改善记忆功能。
But in long bursts these hormones can have a harmful effect on the body and brain.	但长期大量分泌这些激素会对身体和大脑产生有害影响。
It's the occasional burst of stress of brief exposure to environmental or physiological stress that could be protective.	偶尔爆发的压力或短暂暴露于环境或生理压力之下可能会起到保护作用。

The United States is well known for its network of major highways designed to help a driver get from one place to another in the shortest possible time.	美国以其主要高速公路网络而闻名，该网络旨在帮助驾驶员在最短的时间内从一个地方到达另一个地方。。
Although these wide modern roads are generally smooth and well maintained, with few sharp curves and straight sections, a direct route is not always the most enjoyable one.	虽然这些宽阔的现代道路一般都很平坦且维护良好，几乎没有急弯，只有直线路段，但直路并不总是最令人愉快的。
Large highways often pass by scenic areas interesting small towns.	大型高速公路经常经过风景名胜区和有趣的小镇。

Furthermore, these highways generally connect large urban centers, which means that they become crowded with heavy traffic during rush hours, when the "fast, direct" route becomes a very slow route.	此外，这些高速公路通常连接大型城市中心，这意味着在高峰时段，这些城市中心会变得交通拥挤，“快速、直达”的路线会变成非常缓慢的路线。
However, there is almost always another route to take if you are not in a hurry.	然而，如果你不着急，几乎总有另一条路可走
Not far from the relatively new "superhighways", there are often older, less heavily traveled roads which go through the countryside.	离相对较新的“高速公路”不远处，常常有一些较老的、交通不太繁忙的乡村道路。
Some of these are two good lane roads; others are uneven roads curving through the country.	其中一些是两条车道良好的道路；另一些则是蜿蜒穿过乡村的不平坦道路。
These secondary routes may go up steep slopes, along high cliffs, or down frightening hillside to towns lying in deep valleys.	这些次要路线可能会沿着陡峭的斜坡、高耸的悬崖或令人恐惧的山坡下行至深谷中的城镇。
Through these less direct routes, longer and slower, they generally go to places where the air is clean and scenery is beautiful, and the driver may have a chance to get a fresh, clean view of the world.	通过这些不太直接、更长、更慢的路线，他们通常会到达空气清新、风景优美的地方，驾驶员可能有机会看到清新、干净的世界。

Dear Dr. Ramsey, I seem to get colds all the time. Is there anything I can do to prevent them? What should I do after I've caught one?

亲爱的拉姆齐医生，我好像总是感冒。有什么办法可以预防吗？感冒后该怎么办？

The common cold is the most frequent of all illnesses. At any given moment, about one out of every eight people has one. Most people get colds by touching things that a person with a cold has used.

普通感冒是所有疾病中最常见的一种。在任何特定时刻，几乎每八个人中就有一人患上普通感冒。大多数人是通过接触感冒患者使用过的物品而感冒的。

然而，维生素C是否真的有益尚不清楚。身体需要健康的食物来抵抗感冒。感冒时，应该吃得健康，但不要暴饮暴食，并且应该喝大量的液体，尤其是果汁。

Also be sure to get enough rest and stay warm. If your body aches, you can take one or two aspirin every four hours.

另外，一定要保证充足的休息和保暖。如果身体疼痛，可以每四小时服用一到两片阿司匹林。

Some research shows, however, that taking aspirin can make your cold last longer. When you have a cold you should also try to protect other people. Cover your month and nose when you have a cough or sneeze.

然而，一些研究表明，服用阿司匹林可能会延长感冒持续时间。感冒时，也应该尽力保护他人。咳嗽或打喷嚏时，请捂住嘴和鼻子。

Put all your used tissues in a paper bag, and throw away the bag yourself so that no one else will have to touch it. Wash all objects that you touch with very hot water before anyone else uses them.

把所有用过的纸巾放进一个纸袋里，然后自己扔掉，这样就不会有人碰它了。所有你接触过的物品，在别人使用之前，都要用热水清洗干净。

This is our fifth day at the "Sun, sea and Sand" travel conference in London. Bisiness is great! Our company is doing well here and , in the evenings, I often go out into the city.

Yesterday, I met a women called Anita Handley. She's the manager of a travel company which has an office here. I want to set up an aggreement with Anita's company because we need someone to help us with marketing in Britain.

So this morning, I went to meet Anita and her colleagues in their office. They work in a building in Garden Street.

I decided to walk there but I don't know London very well, and I didn't have a map with me, So I just asked people how to get there.

I went out of the conference building and turned left along Market Street, towards the city centre, A young man told me that I should carry straight on, along Market Street, and then turn right into Princess Street.

So, I went straight on for about five minutes and then turned right, as the man said. When I arrived in Princess Street I asked an old woman for help. She told me to turn left into Garden Street. The office was along Garden Street next to the City Library.

I spent three hours there, discussing business with Anita and her colleagues; I think they'll be excellent partners.

Afterwords, I met Helen Hunter, my colleague, in Oxford Street and we had some tea. In the evening, we went to the Boardwalk Nightclub; great fun, fantastic music, and Helen is a really good dancer!
