a)
What I already know:
• school is stressful for teenagers
• a little stress is good for you
• exercise reduces stress
• hormones released during exercise make us feel good
What I learnt:
• stress hormones speed up the metabolism
• high stress can lead to depression
• 30 minutes exercise a day gives benefits
b)
I think studying and exams are causes of stress for people ту age. I also think peer pressure to fit in is a large cause of stress for teenagers. For older people, different things such as jobs and paying bills are the main causes of stress for them. I think a good way to deal with stress is talking to your friends and family about your problems and exercising regularly.

One of the most important ways to keep stress low is to know what causes your stress and be prepared when faced with it. Learn to say ‘no’ to others who are pressuring you or causing you stress. Also, try to talk to someone who listens. Going for a walk in natural surroundings or listening to uplifting music can help stimulate your senses and reduce the feeling of stress. Another good idea to reduce stress is to do your favourite hobby or sport as a way to escape from whatever is stressing you out and relax.
