Explanation
Illegal drugs are considered a bad way of coping with stress because they can have harmful effects on both physical and mental health. Instead of addressing the root causes of stress and finding healthy ways to manage it, relying on illegal drugs can lead to addiction, further stress, and a range of negative consequences. It is important to seek healthier coping mechanisms such as exercise, therapy, relaxation techniques, or engaging in hobbies and activities that bring joy and relaxation.

Laughter is the beast way to relive stress.
- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
A. True

Explanation
Laughter is considered the best way to relieve stress because it has numerous physical and psychological benefits. When we laugh, our body releases endorphins, which are natural mood boosters that help reduce stress levels. Laughing also helps relax muscles, improve blood flow, and increase oxygen intake, all of which contribute to a sense of well-being and stress reduction. Additionally, laughter promotes social bonding and enhances emotional resilience, making it an effective tool for managing stress. Therefore, the statement that laughter is the best way to relieve stress is true.

- A.
