3.选J)。此处应填名词。前面说有压力并不是坏事,适当的压力能给人以动力,能赋予人生活的意义。只有在什么时候,压力才会导致人们表现不佳,身体不好。根据上下文可知get out of control压力失控的时候,才会有不好的结果,故选J)control。

8.选M)。此处填名词。前句说,在人类的早期,选择不同就意味着生与死的差别;而现在人们碰到的危机不可能那样极端。后面but转折,说明了不管是压力的大小,人们都是在避免和战斗之间选择,下句中的such a reaction也可以说明人们对压力的反应是一样的,选项中的名词answer和response中,M)response=reaction符合文意。
9.选A)。根据上题,这种反应长时间持续的原因就是长时间的面对压力,选项中的exposure暴露的状态,受影响符合上下文意思,故选择A)exposure。
