Stress is a natural part of everyday life and there is no way to avoid it. In fact, it is not the bad thing it is often supposed to be. A certain amount of stress is to provide motivation and give purpose to life. It is only when the stress gets out of that it can lead to poor performance and ill health.
The amount of stress a person can depends very much on the individual (个体). Some people are not afraid of stress, and such are obviously prime materials for managerial responsibilities, others lose at the first sign of unusual difficulties. When exposed to stress, in whatever form, we react both chemically and . In fact we make choice between “flight or fight” and in more primitive days the choices made the between life or death.
We can’t remove stress from our lives (it would be to do so even if we could). We need to find ways to deal with it.

Louis Braille was born in the small village of Coupvray in France. His father was a skilled leather worker who had many tools. One day, when his father went out, three-year-old Louis a sharp and pointed awl (锥子) from his father’s tool-box. The awl slipped from his tiny hands and hurt one of his . The infection soon spread to the other eye and the poor child became totally at the age of three.
He had a great goal and dream in his life. At the age of 12 he started his new mission — to a system to enable the blind to read and write. He had the concept that if the letters could be by the fingertips even the blind could with ease. He successfully completed his system of dots by the age of fifteen. The system invented by Louis Braille has a series of raised dots. Each letter is formed by raised dots out of a total of six dots arranged in a rectangle (矩形) consisting of two columns of three dots each. Braille’s work has changed the lives of millions of disabled people and enabled them to lead a life.
The contributions of Braille provided a vision and mission for the millions of disabled people. By and effort, they also can create wonders and serve society.
