Question

Fear is an emotion like others such as happiness, anger, hurt, sadness. We need emotions to process information we receive and decide how to respond. Being afraid of fast cars, for example, is something that might protect us from harm. Being afraid of the consequence of a choice may prevent us getting into trouble.
Fears in young children commonly center on certain animals like snakes or big dogs. Fears are caused often because of experiences or ideas expressed by others, and at times, the media. Many normal fears during the early years, like men with beards, or large dogs, disappear with age. Those relating to personal failure and ridicule (嘲笑) remain through adulthood and may need special help to overcome.
Children’s fears are often trivial, but that doesn’t mean they should be ignored. They need to be recognized and accepted as real for that child. Only when we help children understand their fears can they grow normally in their ability to deal with them.
Research shows that as a child grows up, the center of his fears changes a lot. Things like divorce, a teacher who “shouted at me”, people with guns, bullies, big boys, or “making fun of me” top the list of childhood fears.
We can not always prevent these experiences from happening, but it’s essential that children be allowed to freely express their emotions without judgment. Sympathy and a caring listener will help ease the pain of these fears. Read books and stories to your child about children who have experienced similar fears. This helps children talk about their fears and find ways to cope. With all emotions, fears become less of a problem for children as they gain self-confidence and they find that fear is normal and can be dealt with.

試題分析：本文主要講是小孩恐懼的形成的原因及應對的辦法，通過恐懼讓孩子能贏得自信，發(fā)現(xiàn)這種情感并不可怕，是可以克服的。
小題1:B 細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段提到Fears are caused often because of experiences or ideas expressed by others, and at times, the media,害怕可能由于別人對于事物的描述，或者媒體對他的描述的導致的，所以不是天生的而是后天所知道了，故選B項。
小題2:A.細節(jié)推斷題。根據(jù)第三段Children’s fears are often trivial, but that doesn’t mean they should be ignored.孩子的恐懼通常是很小，但并且不意味著他們被忽視，所以只有小還會被忽視故選A項。
小題3:D推理判斷題。根據(jù)第三段提到Only when we help children understand their fears can they grow normally in their ability to deal with them只有通過幫助孩子理解恐懼，他們才能真正的成長來自己處理他們。所以選D項。
小題4:A推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段最后一句話提到Those relating to personal failure and ridicule (嘲笑) remain through adulthood and may need special help to overcome那些與個人失敗或被嘲笑有關的恐懼可能需要一些特殊的幫助才能克服，所以有些恐懼可能很強的影響，故選A項。
小題5:B 主旨大意題。本文第一段提到恐懼是一種正常的情感，他的存在能讓我們避免進入困境，而孩子的恐懼有時是外界造成的而不是天生的，有時可能問題很小但并不能忽視，實驗表示當孩子長大了，就會發(fā)生變化，我們不能阻止事情的發(fā)生，但允許孩子自由表達自己的看法是非常重要，讓孩子在這個過程中記得自信，所以B項符合題意。
