单选题   众所周知,对于心血管功能不好的人来说,太大的工作压力可能会引起心血管疾病(cardiovascular disease)。最近研究表明即便对于健康人来说,工作压力仍有可能夺去他们的生命。工作压力包含很多方面,如工作量过大、对工作感到不满意,或在工作中不得志等。许多人工作量也相当大,但是如果工作有成效,工作压力就会最小化。然而,如果工作量过大,又很少或完全不加以控制,再碰上不公平的管理和极少的工作机会,工作压力就会破坏健康。
 
【正确答案】It is known to all that too much job stress may trigger heart problems in people who already have cardiovascular disease. Now recent studies have shown that even in healthy people the pressures of work can take their toll. Work stress involves too much work as well as a lack of satisfaction and feeling undervalued and unappreciated. Many people work long hours, but if the effort is rewarding the stress is minimized. However, job pressure is damaging when being overworked is combined with little or no control, unfair supervision and few career opportunities.
