Model Answer
A healthy lifestyle helps in managing stress effectively. Physical exercise, yoga, meditation, and deep breathing improve blood circulation and relax the body. A balanced diet provides energy, and adequate sleep (at least 7 hours) recharges the brain and body, keeping stress levels low.
One common factor causing stress in children: Exam pressure — being unprepared or too close to exams causes significant stress among students.

Explanation
- The question has two parts: (1) importance of healthy lifestyle for stress management, and (2) one common stressor for children — address both.
- From the passage, "healthy lifestyle" covers exercise, diet, sleep, and yoga/meditation — mention at least 2–3 for full marks.
- For the second part, any one valid stressor from the passage (exam pressure, lack of sleep, family pressure) is acceptable. Exam pressure is the most commonly cited example in the text.
- Do not over-explain; keep it concise as it is a 2-mark question.
