Hi guys, this time we are going to read and analyze about a very important health issue: the effects of stress

we would like to receive your comments on this subject and invite you to participate in a questionnaire on the subject...

The Effects of Stress

There is a famous expression in English: "Stop the world, I want to get off!" This expression refers to a feeling of panic, or stress, that makes a person want to stop whatever they are doing, try to relax, and become calm again. 'Stress' means pressure or tension. It is one of the most common causes of health problems in modern life. Too much stress results in physical, emotional, and mental health problems.

There are numerous physical effects of stress. Stress can affect the heart. It can increase the pulse rate, make the heart miss beats, and can cause high blood pressure. Stress can affect the respiratory system. It can lead to asthma. It can cause a person to breathe too fast, resulting in a loss of important carbon dioxide. Stress can affect the stomach. It can cause stomach aches and problems digesting food. These are only a few examples of the wide range of illnesses and symptoms resulting from stress.

Emotions are also easily affected by stress. People suffering from stress often feel anxious. They may have panic attacks. They may feel tired all the time. When people are under stress, they often overreact to little problems. For example, a normally gentle parent under a lot of stress at work may yell at a child for dropping a glass of juice. Stress can make people angry, moody, or nervous.

Long-term stress can lead to a variety of serious mental illnesses. Depression, an extreme feeling of sadness and hopelessness, can be the result of continued and increasing stress. Alcoholism and other addictions often develop as a result of overuse of alcohol or drugs to try to relieve stress. Eating disorders, such as anorexia, are sometimes caused by stress and are often made worse by stress. If stress is allowed to continue, then one's mental health is put at risk.

It is obvious that stress is a serious problem. It attacks the body. It affects the emotions. Untreated, it may eventually result in mental illness. Stress has a great influence on the health and well-being of our bodies, our feelings, and our minds. So, reduce stress: stop the world and rest for a while.

Hello everyone!

It's time to practice the previous reading technique...

Aquí les dejamos este corto poema de Maya Angelou: When I Think About Myself.
El cual utilizaremos como ejemplo de la técnica de lectura : Scanning.
Teniendo en cuenta la técnica:
1) Leer primeramente la información resaltada, ya que es la más importante o relevante del texto, de esta manera tendremos una idea general del poema.
2) Después, leer el poema completo y detalladamente y de esta manera ya tendremos la idea completa del poema.

Let's practice !

Hello everyone!

it's time to practice this reading technique...

Join us!

El escaneo es una técnica de lectura rápida. Es una forma de leer para buscar información específica en un texto.

El escaneo se puede usar para leer los anuncios en un periódico, o para navegar por horarios de televisión, horarios, listas, catálogos o páginas web para obtener información. Para estas tareas no necesita leer ni comprender cada palabra.

El escaneo también es útil cuando se estudia o busca encontrar información específica de un libro o artículo rápidamente, ya que no siempre hay tiempo para leer cada palabra.

To continue with our reading techniques we leave you this phrase.

"Leer un libro es como comer una papa frita"- Diane Duane

Taking into account the previously exposed technique (skimming), read the following text and take out the relevant information, then write a comment saying the main idea of the text and take out two unknown words from the text and look for two synonyms to each word.
Teniendo en cuenta la técnica expuesta anteriormente (skimming), lea el siguiente texto y saque la información importante, luego escriba un comentario diciendo la idea principal del texto y saque dos palabras desconocidas del texto y busque dos sinónimos de cada palabra .

Skimming is our first reading technique, we hope you put it into practice.

El "skimming" se refiere al proceso de leer sólo las ideas principales dentro de un pasaje para obtener una impresión general del contenido de una selección de lectura.
Como Hojear

Paso 1: lee el titulo
Paso 2: Luego lea los subtítulos (si los hay) del texto. Dará una idea básica sobre el texto y lo que hay en él.
Paso 3: Si no hay subtítulo, lea la primera línea o las primeras líneas del texto. Le dará la idea del texto.
Paso 4: No leas cada palabra o cada frase. Deje que sus ojos hojeen el texto y busquen las palabras clave.
Paso 5: Si se quiere hojear algo más, puede leer las primeras líneas de todos los párrafos y centrarse en las palabras enfatizadas (en negrita y cursiva) para obtener más ideas sobre el texto.
Paso 6: Lea el resumen o el último párrafo
