初一作文状物： Is Stress a Bad Thing ？ 压力是一件坏事？ Directions ： For this part you are allowed thirty minutes to write a composition on the topic Is Stress a Bad Thing ？ You should write no less than 150 words and base your composition on the outline （given in Chinese ） below ： 1 。有的人害怕压力 2 。有的人认为压力并不是一件坏事 3 。我的看法 范文： “I can;t stand the pressure and competition ，” explained one friend of mine when asked why he decided to quit his highly-paid but demanding position in his company recently 。 My friend may have his own reasons ， but I don;t think his decision is wise in reality 。 It;s true that my friend;s case is not unique 。 In the last few years quite a number of men and women have chosen to do something less competitive at the cost of a comfortable ， easy life a highly-paid job can obtain 。 They are afraid that the stresses and strains of work will rob them of joy and happiness and do them harm both physically and mentally 。 In fact ， however ， stress isn;t the bad thing it is often supposed to be 。 Unless it gets out of control ， a certain amount of stress is vital to provide motivation and challenge ， and to give purpose and significance to an otherwise meaningless ， idle life 。 People under stress tend to express their full range of potential and to actualize their own personal worth —— the very aim of a human life 。 Stress is a natural part of everyday life and there is no way to avoid it 。 What we can do is to develop our adaptive abilities to deal with it rather than to escape from it 。
