Learn to relax

One day, our English teacher Ms. Smith came into the classroom with a book in her hand.

She started her lesson with a question. "Who can describe what stress is like?" No one answered.

Then she raised the book and asked, "How heavy is the book?" We began to think and guess.

One student stood up and said, "I think it is 100g." Another student said, "It's 200g". Our answers were different.

At last, Ms. Smith explained, "It doesn't matter on the real weight. It depends on how long you hold it.

If I hold it for a minute, it is OK. If I hold it for an hour, I will have a pain in my right arm.

If I hold it for a day, you will have to call a doctor. It is the exact same weight, but the longer I hold it, the heavier it becomes.

This book stands for stress. If you hold it without putting it down, sooner or later, you will not be able to keep on.

No matter how much stress you have, stop and have a rest for a while if possible.

Boys and girls, you should learn to relax yourselves. I am sure you will live a happy school life."

We will never forget Ms. Smith and the meaningful lesson．
