Thats what more than 1,700 kids told us when we asked them about fears and scary(害怕的) things. We gave kids a list of 14 scary things and asked which one frightened them most. Here are the top 5 answers from our survey: Scary movies and TV shows; Scary dreams; Thunderstorms, hurricanes (飓风), and other horrible weather; War and terrorism (恐怖行动); Sounds heard at night.But not everyone is afraid of the same thing. And what makes one person scared can be of no big deal for someone else. Plenty of kids said their biggest fear wasnt on our list.What is fear? Fear is a feeling that everyone has its programmed into all of us and thats a good thing because fear is there to protect us. Were born with a sense of fear so we can react to something that could be dangerous. The baby cries, and their mom comes over to comfort him or her, helping the baby feel safe and OK again.Real vs. PretendThe best way to get over a fear is to get more information about it. As kids get older, they understand more and start seeing the difference between what is real and unreal. So when Williams imagination leads him to think of witches(女巫), he can tell himself, “Wait a minute. Theyre only pretend things. I dont need to worry about them.”The same goes for the dark. A kids imagination can start playing tricks when the lights go out. Whats under my bed? Is that a thief I hear? With the help of a parent, kids can get more comfortable in the dark. Using a night light or shining a flashlight under the bed to see that theres nothing there can help kids fight that fear.44 .

Many countries all over the world have National Parks. There are about 7, 000 National Parks around the world. Most of them protect natural settings as well as the plants and animals that live there, but a few are in towns and cities.Are there National Parks in England?There are nine National Parks in England. The first t53 . were the Peak District, the Lake District and Dartmoor, which were all named as National Parks in 1951. Others followed afterwards, such as the North York Moors in 1952, the New Forest in 2005 and the South Downs in 2010.Are National Parks in England the same as those in other countries?Many National Parks around the world cover huge areas of land where n54 . lives, but in England most of the countryside within them is useful for farming and other activities. As a result, National Parks in England include places where people live and work, as well as wild and beautiful areas where there is little sign or human life.Why do visitors go to the National Parks?There are plenty of activities to do in all of the National Parks in England.

ZhengAiqiang, a “memory athlete” on TV show Super Brain, can remember 2,660 numbers in just one hour!You would think people like this have special brains. But according to a recent study by researchers from the US and the Netherlands, the brain structures（结构）of ordinary people and 23 of the worlds leading memory athletes show no difference.Thats because good memories can be trained. New research in the journal Neuron (神经元期刊) suggests that you can become a super memorizer with just six weeks of hard training.Researchers found that technique (技巧）called loci, invented by ancient Greeks, can greatly help improve memory. By using loci, you are using your imagination to improve the brains memory networks. You can link（关联）something you need to remember with a place that you know very well. For example, to remember a list of numbers, imagine yourself walking through your house. Each thing is linked to a number. For example, zero could be handle（把手）on the door and five could be the painting on the wall.In one study, some ordinary people were given 20 minutes to remember 72 words. First they could only remember 26 of them. But when they were taught loci, they could remember 62 words.“Not everyone can become a memory champion. But everyone using the technique can improve a lot from the level theyre at,” said Boris Konrad, one of the researchers in the study.60 . Is Super Brain a TV show?_61 . Who was loci invented by?_62 . How can you remember more words in twenty minutes according to Paragraph 5?_63 . Is loci helpful to you? Why or why not?_八、材料作文64 . 假如你是Anna，你校英语俱乐部正在招募成员。请你根据下表内容，用英语写一封自我介绍信。NameAnnaAge12Looksbig eyes, very lovelyHealthy lifestyleusually eat fruit and vegetables, seldom eat snacks, swim twice a week, practise volleyballFavourite festivalHobbiescollecting stamps and designing clothesDreamto be a fashion designer注意：1. 文中不得出现你的真实姓名和学校名称；2. 语言通顺，意思连贯，条理清楚，书写规范；3. 词数：60左右，要点可做适当拓展。信的开头与结尾已给出，不计入总词数。Hi, I am Anna. _I will be very happy if I can be a member of your club.
