1 We read articles in the newspapers about stress on a regular basis. Numerous books and magazines on the market tell of the importance of avoiding stress as well as ways of coping with it. Stress is a killer they say, so it is important to stay calm, slow down, relax, and try not to work so much. However, people in the modern world often have financial problems: bills to pay and tuition for school. Sometimes, they have problems at home which add to stress and worries. In addition, cities are congested and noisy. Heavy traffic and pollution make just getting to work or school a chore. Stress costs American companies over 300 billion dollars a year in lost productivity, sick leave and medical expenses. It is difficult to tell how a person under stress will react to it. When one kind of person gets tense, s/he may find it difficult to relax. This person may suffer from a lack of concentration on the job and get annoyed at having to wait for something more than a few minutes; let us say a hamburger at the local fast food restaurant or on line to pay for a pack of cigarettes -- which incidentally, they believe will calm them down. Noises can irritate them too; especially the honking of horns while sitting in traffic. People like this can become moody; fine one minute, then gloomy the next. They can even blow up and become furious, shout at other people and perhaps even strike them. There are people, on the other hand, who never seem to get annoyed or upset. They appear to be calm all the time and do not get angry easily. They are patient while standing in line or in heavy traffic; and 22

2 do not get frustrated by setbacks. These people remain under control and tell themselves things will get better. They are less likely to make a bad situation worse by showing their irritation, shouting, saying something they will be sorry for later and hurting the feelings of other people. The personality types mentioned above have been given names by some researchers: Type A and Type B. Type A people work hard, have very little free-time and may appear to be ill-tempered and impatient. It could be quite difficult to have a conversation with Type A people; because they tend to speak quickly, change the topic a lot, and keep interrupting the other person. The reason for this could be they lose interest in what the other person is saying quickly or are overly anxious to express their own ideas. Type B personalities are quite the opposite. Work is not the most important thing to them and they do not get angry as much as Type A people. Life-style is very important and they enjoy relaxing and having fun. As a consequence of their work attitudes and habits, Type A people may suffer from a wide variety of stress-related ailments; not the least of which is heart trouble. Doctors say it is better for your health to be a Type B person, but in the fast-paced, competitive, materialistic world of today, Type B people may find themselves unhappy in other ways. What do you think the people in these pictures need to do about stress? 23

3 Nervous or Relaxed? 1) Describe the man in the picture with the words below. overworked exhausted nervous overwhelmed frustrated easy-going relaxed organized ambitious other What do you think he is saying? 2) Write A for Type A or B for Type B next to each description.
