Read the summary paragraph on the bottom of p. 37. Identify the author’s goal in writing the paragraph. How effectively do you think the author met that goal?

The paragraph is below.

Hockenbury and Hockenbury tell us that daily hassles often cause more
stress than major problems do. According to several studies, men and
women report different kinds of daily stress and react to stress differently,
though both experience psychological and physical symptoms. Some research shows that daily hassles produce stress because their effects are
cumulative — that is, they add up over time to create major stress.

Ooops! You forgot to let us know what YOU THINK.
What do you mean?
The assignment asks for what you think. We do not do your work for you. Once you have attempted to answer your questions, we will be happy to give you feedback on your work. Although it might require more time and effort, you will learn more if you do your own work. Isn't that why you go to school?
