At the beginning of the lesson, students discuss stress in general: what causes it and what helps to manage it. Then, they look at some phrases and their synonyms from the article. Their task is to complete them by adding the missing letters. Next, they read a dialogue in which two people share their problems and give some advice for dealing with stress.
