论压力 On Stress

In modern society, most people are under the higher pressure than ever before and some people cannot handle the stress well and choose some extreme ways to avoid or settle their ver, is stress a bad thing? As far as I am concerned, everything has two coins, and we also need to realize it from two aspects.
在现代社会，大多数人承受的压力都比以往要多。有些人不懂得正确处理压力，而选择了极端的方式去逃避或了结他们的压力。但是，压力是有害的吗？在我看来，任何事情都有两面性。同样地，我们要从两个方面来认识压力。

For one thing, stress is a kind of mental burden caused by nervousness or anxiety. In modern society, stress is mostly caused by the high requirements or heavy burden from surroundings or us, such as stress from peers or stress in economy. If we cannot handle the stress well, we would be easy to be in a negative mood and lost our motivation and courage to keep going or struggle with difficulties. In this aspect, stress is a threat for our body and mental.
一方面，压力是由于紧张或焦虑而引起的一种精神负担。在现代社会，压力大多数来源于环境或是自身的高要求或沉重的负担，比如来自同辈人的压力，经济上的压力等。如果我们不能处理好压力，我们就很容易陷入消极情绪中，丧失继续前进或和困难作斗争的动力和勇气从这方面来说，压力是对我们身心的一个威胁。

However, for another, stress can also be changed into a kind of motivation if we handle it well. For example, when you find that you are surpassed by your classmates in an examination, you feel stressful but at the same time, you also tell yourself that you need to work harder to surpass him next time. Under this stress, you will find yourself have more motivation and energy to study. In this point, stress is a propeller for us to get more improvements.
然而，另一方面，如果我们处理得好，压力也可以转化为一种动力。比如说，你发现在一次考试中，你的同学超过了你，你感到有压力了，但与此同时，你也会告诉自己说你要更加努力以便在下次考试中超过他。在这种压力下，你会发现自己会有更多的动力和精力去学习。从这一角度来看，压力是我们进步的推进器。

Thus, we need to use a dialectical method to treat stress and handle it properly。
因此，我们要用辩证的方法看待压力，适当地处理压力。
