ASK LASKAS
YOU'VE GOT QUESTIONS. SHE'S GOT ANSWERS
Q: My problem is computer gaming. I do it day and night, averaging four hours of sleep. I can't control of this, and I don't know where to go for help. Do you?                            —Player
A: Dear Player,
You have an addiction. For some people playing video games releases dopamine, a powerful brain chemical that makes you feel good. You'd toss your cigarettes if you were ready to quit, right? To kick the habit, get help from a health professional. And don't look for help on line; that would be like an alcoholic going to the bar for advice.
Q: My brother's wife just had triplets(三胞胎). This is such a joy! Yet every time I share the news with co-workers, they ask me if she was on fertility pills. I think this is rude—or has society just become so talk-show numbed (麻木的)that you can ask anyone anything?                     —No Show Host
A: Dear Host,
Yes. Our society has become increasingly disrespectful of privacy. But don't blame it all on the talk-shows. Continue to celebrate and greet impolite questions with stony silence. Their fertility history is nobody's business but their own.
Q: I work at an amusement park, and my manager steals supplies. She has a catering business on the side, and we've seen her load up her van at the back gates. The big bosses think she is the best thing since buttered bread, and we're all afraid that if we say anything, we'll lose our jobs. What can we do?    —Righteous
A: Dear Righteous,
Be sure you're right. You must have evidence about what and why things are going out the back gates. Once you know for certain, it's time to go to the bosses and report what you have seen.
Q: My stepson's wife sometimes leaves their eight-year-old home alone for "a short run to the store." That may be an hour or so. I believe by law we should report it. What do you think?
—The In-laws
A: Dear Laws,
I don't know what the child-protection laws in your state are, but I do know that children need care and attention. This child may be able and unafraid, but kids aren't always careful. It also sounds like there is stress in your family relationship. One thing you can do to help this situation is offer to baby-sit when Mom needs to step out

An acrobatic（杂技的）master performed a tightrope（钢丝）walk between two mountains, which attracted thousands of people.

   When the __36___ started, he went to one end of the tightrope, __37__ straight at the goal ahead, with open arms, walking slowly step by step to the opposite side of the mountain. Immediately, the audience__38__ loud applause.

   “If my hands are tied, do you also believe I can __39__?” he asked the audience.

__40___, some people didn’t believe, but in order to know the __41___, they said, “We believe you!”

 Then, he had his hands tied with a rope and walked past __42___.

 He looked around and said, “If I’m blindfolded（蒙着眼睛的）with my hands tied, do you __43___believe I can go past?”

 This time, the people said without __44___, “We believe you!”

 In this way, his eyes were __45___with a black cloth. He moved slowly to the tightrope and walked along it inch by inch. This time, he went past once again. The audience burst into__46___.

  Then, he __47___ a child and asked all the people, “If I put him on my shoulders __48___ I’m blindfolded with my hands tied as well, do you still believe I can make it?”

All the people replied before __49___, “We believe you!”

“I ask you again, do you really believe me?”

  “Yes, we believe you completely!”

Then, he said, “Well then, since you believe me, __50___my child with yours. Who will?”

All of a sudden, the audience fell __51___. The silence lasted for nearly ten minutes.

 After ten minutes, the acrobatic master said nothing, just put the child on his shoulders and walked past along the tightrope. Sure enough, this time he __52___once more.

   Faced with things far from their own __53___, people can often make judgments easily and quickly, but once involved in（牵涉）it, most of people “cannot __54___ it clearly”. Only those who are really confident, like the master in the tightrope walk, can stay__55___at any time.
