I was truly afraid of the dark and of getting lost when I was a child. These fears were very real and often caused me some uncomfortable moments.

Perhaps it was the strange _36_ things looked and sounded in my familiar room at night that _37_ me so much. There was never complete _38_, but a streetlight or passing car lights _39_ clothes hung over a chair take on the _40_ of a wild animal. Out of the corner of my _41_, I saw the curtains seem to move when there was no _42_. A tiny sound in the floor would seem a hundred times louder than in the daylight. My _43_ would run wild, and my heart would beat fast. I would _44_ very still so that the “enemy” would not discover me.

Another of my childhood fears was that I would get lost, _45_ on the way home from school. Every morning I got on the school bus right near my home. That was no 46_. After school, _47_, when all the buses were _48_ up along the street, I was afraid that I’d get in the wrong one and be taken to some _49_ neighborhood. On school or family trips to a park or a museum, I wouldn’t _50_ the leaders out of my sight.

Perhaps one of the worst fears _51_ all I had as a child was that of not being liked or _52_ by others. Being popular was so important to me _53_, and the fear of not being liked was a _54_ one.

One of the processes(过程)of growing up is being able to _55_ and overcome our

fears. Understanding the things that frightened us as children help us achieve greater success later in life.
