题目内容
11.Of the many unpleasant emotions we can experience,fear may top the list.(36)F.Fear can also keep us from pursuing the things in life that really matter--like following our dreams,and developing important relationships.I have some ideas,though,of how to be free from fear.•Experience fear.
I used to be very afraid of speaking in front of people.I would get sweaty palms and my stomach would be so tied up that I wouldn't be able to eat.However,each time I spoke,I noticed afterwards that it wasn't that bad.Things I fear are never as bad in reality as I make them out in my mind.(37)D.
•Create space.
The first and most important step to being fearless is to create some space between ourselves and the emotion of fear.This isn't accomplished by ignoring the fear,or trying to talk ourselves out of it.(38)A.In fact,a recent research shows that by simply admitting the emotion we actually begin to reverse the"fight or flight(逃避)"response in the body.
•Control the breath and feel the fear.
Once we acknowledge the presence of fear,the second step is to control the breathing so that it becomes slower and gentler.We try to make the breath just a little bit longer,and feel how fear manifests(展现) in the body.(39)G.
With practice,we can create enough space between us and the emotion of fear so that we're able to replace a fearful thought with a positive one.(40)B.For instance,before I get up to speak in front of a group of people,I imagine that the audience is positively impressed by what I say and that I manage to complete the speech successfully.
A.Space is created only when we can honestly acknowledge that fear exists.
B.We can imagine a positive outcome for whatever we're about to do.
C.Fear,if left uncontrolled,can even destroy our life.
D.So one way to get rid of fear is to simply push ourselves to do things that we fear.
E.When we can see a positive outcome in our mind,fear no longer holds us back.
F.But fear is more than just physically unpleasant.
G.As we pay attention to the physical symptoms of fear,we can see fear objectively.
