Stress isn't just a problem for adults. Young people, however, are also suffering from stress with different
causes. Below are some factors that contribute to those youngsters' unhealthy levels of stress.
School Pressure
Teenagers often feel stressed about academic and extracurricular demands. Students feel pressure to complete
daily homework, finish projects and study for exams. In addition to the quest for good grades, teens may also
participate in extracurricular activities, such as sports, student council, cheerleading and clubs. The added pastimes
may contribute to teenage stress and anxiety if the activities arc competitive and require scheduling that cuts into
study and relaxation time.
Peer Pressure
Although teens may have a solid group of friends, their peers may pressure them to hang out instead of studying
or experiment with drugs, alcohol or sexual activities that go against their morals or family rules. Peer pressure,
bullying on campus and harassment may distract teens from studying, leading them to feel additional stress and
anxiety.
Family Problems
Teenagers can also feel stress at home because of family pressures and problems. Arguments with siblings,
disagreements with parents over rules and expectations and the need to consistently care for younger siblings may
also contribute to teen stress.
Sense of Loss
Teens may also feel stress and anxiety when experiencing a sense of loss. “Loss” can mean the end of a
relationship, friendship or cherished extracurricular activity. Breaking up with a boyfriend or best friend, for
example, may lead them to doubt their self-worth or feel anxious about attending school or social functions because
of their change in social status.
A. Decide whether the following sentences are true (T) or false (F).
1. Stress is a problem of both adults and young people.
2. Youngsters can't be stressed if they do well in their classes.
3. Peer pressure can make teens unable to concentrate on studying.
4. The family is always the best place, so it doesn't cause stress for teenagers.
5. Some problems in the social relationship can lead teens to doubt or anxiety.
B. Answer the questions.

VIII. Read the text then choose the correct answers.
Practical stress management can help students deal with their worries and become more productive, competent
and efficient. First of all, students must be able to design and stick to a timetable. Choose a relaxing break between
work and study, even if it's just taking out time to breathe. In addition, a healthy lifestyle is essential for students.
Let's drink more water as well as take out time to get some air and exercise. Furthermore, organization is very
important in academic life for dealing with stress. By keeping academic notes organized, turning in assignments on
time, and keeping track of all deadlines, stress can be reduced to a great extent. Stress can also get worse if a person
feels lonely. Therefore, by letting out all your thoughts to someone you trust, you immediately feel a lot better.
However, if you feel extremely stressed out, take a break and do something you love. Whether it is painting or
listening to music, doing something you enjoy can cheer up your mood and distract you from a stressor. It's about
time that we students accept that we can achieve just as much in life without all the stress.
