Life often seems to be a competition to see who isnfaster, stronger, or smarter. Wining is very important because it affects our status and income.nAthletes can see big increases in their incomes when they win. In school,nstudents compete for grades and awards. At work, employees compete for promotions . They mustnhelp their companies deliver new and better products and services if they wantnto achieve success. All of this comes at a cost , and the bill is usually paid for inntime, effort, and health. Great effort plus the fear for falling behind cannmake people sick, and it is the root of many illnesses in modern society.

生活往往似乎是一場競爭，看誰更快，更強，更聰明。獲勝非常重要，因為它會影響我們的地位和收入。運動員獲勝後可以看到收入大幅增加。在學校，學生競爭成績和獎勵。在工作中，員工競爭促銷活動。如果他們想要取得成功，他們必須幫助他們的公司提供新的更好的產品和服務。所有這些都是有代價的，而且賬單通常是按時，省力和健康支付的。努力加上對落後的恐懼會使人生病，這是現代社會許多疾病的根源。
