They warn that anger can lead to heart disease, stomach problems, headaches, emotional problems and possibly cancer.
42、_36_ Some people express anger openly in a calm reasonable way. Others burst with anger, and scream and yell. But other people keep their anger inside. They can not or will not express it. This is called repressing(压制) anger. For years many doctors thought that repressing anger was more dangerous to
43、 a persons health than expressing it. They said that when a person is angry, the brain releases the same hormones (荷尔蒙). They speed the heart rate, raise blood pressure, or sugar into the blood, etc. _37_ Some doctors say that both repressing and expressing anger can be dangerous. They believe that
44、those who express anger violently may be more likely to develop heart disease, and they believe that those who keep anger inside may face a greater danger of high blood pressure. _38_ They say the first step is to admit that you are angry and to recognize the real cause of the anger, then decide if
45、the cause is serious enough to get angry about. If it is, they say, “_39_ Wait until your anger has cooled down and you are able to express yourself calmly and reasonably.” Doctors say that a good way to deal with anger is to find humor in the situation that has made you angry. _40_A. Anger may caus
