[单项选择]

A major part of managing stress is to recognize those situations you can change, and to learn to accept those you can’t change. When you can separate those situations that you have control over from those you don’t, then you will know when to take action and when to "let go" of problems you can’t resolve.
Often pressures from outside sources can cause stress. We have two options: we can either change the demands on us or change the way we think and react to the demands. Sometimes we have to acknowledge that the demands are unreasonable. Then we either accept them or work to change the demands. For example, let’s say a teacher gives you homework with a deadline. Given your other obligations (责任，义务), you first think that the task is unreasonable; you think you need more time to complete the assignment. You have two possible choices. You can try to change the demand, e.g. ask the teacher for an extension (延期), or you can accept the situation
A. change them

[单项选择]"Humans should not try to avoid stress any more than they would shun food, love or exercise." said Dr. Hans Selye, the first physician to document the effects of stress on the body. While here’s no question that continuous stress is harmful, several studies suggest that challenging situations in which you’re able to rise to the occasion can be good for you.
In a 2001 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.
Stress that you can manage may also boost immune(免疫的)function. In a study at the Academic Center for Dentistry in Amsterdam, researchers put volunteers through two stressful experiences. In the first, a timed task that required memorizing a list followed by a short test, subjects believed they had control over the outcome. In the second, they weren’t in control: They had to sit through a gory(血淋淋的)video on surgical
