Stress is a natural response of the body to challenging or threatening situations, activating the "fight-or-fight" reaction.

While essential for survival, prolonged activation due to chronic stress can negatively impact health. Over time, it may contribute to High blood pressure, heart disease, anxiety disorders, and a weakened immune system. Therefore, understanding how stress affects the body is key to effective management.

Recognizing stress symptoms is crucial for maintaining well-being. Stress can manifest physically and psychologically. Common physical symptoms include headaches, muscle tension, fatigue, and sleep disturbances. Psychological symptoms often involve anxiety, imitability, mood swings, and difficulty concentrating. Some individuals may also experience changes in appetite or motivation. If stress is left unmanaged, It can interfere with daily activities and overal quality of life.

To reduce stress, several techniques can be applied. Relaxation methods, such as deep breathing, meditation, and progressive muscle relaxation, help activate the body's calming response. Regular physical activity, like walking or exercising, is also effective in improving mood and reducing stress. Additionally, engaging in enjoyable activities, such as listening to music or practicing mindfulness, can promote relaxation and emotional balance.

Maintaining a healthy lifestyle plays a vital role in stress management. Ensuring sufficient and consistent sleep helps the body recover and reduces stress levels. A balanced diet also supports the body's ability to cope with stress. Moreover, strong social connections with family and friends provide emotional support, which is essential for stress resilience.

Read the following passage about the commercialization of sports and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to Indicate the best answer to each of the following questions from 31 to 40.

[I]These days, sports is a major money-making business for people selling sportswear and other merchandise. [II] In December 2022, I was in Quatar where the World Cup was held. [III] Jerseys even bore the numbers of football heroes. [IV]

The sports arena has become a hunting ground for advertisers and salespeople from various Industries. Sports celebrities do not just endorse sports gear, they are also roped in to sell anything from liquor to luxurious items such as watches and automobiles. Hence, sports has become a major industry in itself. Famous sports personalities who promote the products of various companies stand to earn hefty sums of endorsement money, which, for the majority of them, far exceed the income they eam from playing their respective sports.

Does this diminish the significance of sports itself? Some people argue that it does while others disagree. There are people who feel that money will corrupt sportsmen and turn them into mercenary opportunists. They would rather see the return of sports that do without the lure of such financial gains. Others feel that it helps to promote sports as the money the advertisers and product companies put in can be used to maintain fields, tracks and other equipment of facilities used by the sportsmen. It would be quite disheartening to sit in a leaky stadium with uncomfortable benches, watching a football game for two hours. Likewise, with the spruced up images of the games and the players, people will be more attracted to the different sports and hence will be more likely to take them up as hobbies or forms of exercise.

We have witnessed the rise in the popularity of sports such as tennis, basketball and football. The media coverage of these sporting events is only possible because of the money invested by companies to bring the sports, and of course their products, closer to the homes of the masses.
