句子：

This research built on the work of George Miller Beard, who assumed that we all had a set amount of nerve force, which could be depleted, like a battery, by the stress of modern life.

思考题：

Doctor Beard believes that___.

A.humans have unparalleled mental strength

B.social stress causes nerve burnout
