题目内容

    Are you one of those who always fear whenever a dog is approaching? If you are, you have got phobia ( a very strong feeling of being afraid of something ). Of all human fears, phobias may be the most uncontrollable. They are most often caused by a particular situation or object. In general, phobias can mainly be divided into three varieties. To begin with,agoraphobia is a fear of staying in strange surroundings, for example, an unfamiliar place, or an open area. Social phobia refers to the anxiety people show when they have to stay or perform on social events, for instance, speaking in front of the class. Lastly, there are a wide range of specific phobias. People suffering from this kind of phobia are terrified of specific objects or creatures, such as spiders, perhaps to your surprise, clowns. Besides, there are about six hundred and fifty phobias having been listed by psychologists (心理学家) as yet.

Faced with their phobias, many people choose to do nothing but just escape the situations or objects they fear. Psychologists, however, warn that if not treated properly, this kind of anxiety will get worse, so that it may disturb the sleep pattern, cause physical symptoms, and finally affect their daily activities. As for treatment, clinical research has discovered that medicine for anxiety is not successful in curing phobias. However, the anxiety disorders can be efficiently treated through cognitive behavioral therapy ( 认知行为疗法 ), through which patients are led to inspect the connections between their own fear and the situation or object, and then actively choose the acceptable treatments. Also, other treatments proved effective in reducing phobias are Meditation (quiet thought that can help people relax), listening to calming music, and so on.

[1] Are you on Facebook almost every hour of the day? Do you think about being on 

Facebook even when you are not? If so, you’re suffering from Facebook addiction. Just like

any other type of addiction, it can be harmful to a person’s overall life. However, following 

the few tips can help yourself overcome it.

[2] Admit your addiction to Facebook. Admission is the first step with any addiction. 

If not, then you can’t be helped. Ask yourself these questions: Are you on Facebook at least 

every hour? Do you wake up in the middle of the night with the desire to check your 

Facebook page? Does Facebook interfere with your job performance, family life or daily 

routine? If you said “yes” to most of these questions, then you could be addicted to 

Facebook.

[3]List the consequences for using Facebook. Many people don’t realize what negative 

impact Facebook has on their lives until they make a list. Think about what Facebook 

addiction is doing to your job, family environment and your overall life  and list them all, 

which helps bring about awareness on what it is really doing to their lives.

[4]  ________  . Go under the help section on Facebook and email customer service letting

them get your account cancelled. For some people this is enough to help them overcome 

their addiction, but some others may end up turning to some other social networking 

websites, say, MySpace. In that case, you need to cancel Internet access together.

[5] Seek a professional therapist. Recovering from any addiction can be difficult. Find a 

therapist specializing in addiction, even better yet someone who is familiar with Facebook 

addition. The therapist will help you understand where your Facebook addiction stems from

 and what you can further do to recover from it.
