21、 What are the things that scare you: snakes, spiders or fierce tigers? Or maybe you have a fear of heights or visiting the dentist. Although some of us just get scared or a bit nervous about these things, for others it can cause an unreasonable reaction that can’t be controlled-something we call a phobia (恐惧症). 【1】
Sometimes it’s good to be aware of the possible dangers from things. Our brain warns us of the risks that might lie ahead, but then we often get prepared and overcome them. Clinical psychologist Warren Mansell told the BBC, “Our fears are rooted in our brains-we don’t need to learn to be afraid of animals like snakes or spiders.”【2】With a phobia, your breathing gets quicker, your pulse speeds up, you sweat and your brain is unable to control these reactions.
【3】 Speaking to the BBC, Lauren Rosenberg, a fear and phobia expert, says, “Phobias usually are a copy behaviour from a higher authority, like a parent or teacher, or a kind of mental suffering from a past event that comes back to trouble you continuously.”
There are many different complex phobias some people suffer from, such as agoraphobia－caused by being away from home, and iatrophobia-fear of doctors.【4】Therapy (心理治疗) is one choice, where you gradually get used to whatever it is you fear. Lauren Rosenburg says she likes to work with people to clear their bad memory and help them breathe. But if you do have a phobia, continually trying to avoid what you’re afraid of by yourself is likely to make the situation worse.【5】
A．Then how can they be overcome?
B．But where does a phobia come from?
C．But phobias are stronger than just fears.
D．The right thing to do is to find help to overcome it.
E．Overcoming a phobia can take patience, devotion and courage.
F．Are there any phobias that tend to be more common than others?
G．It occurs when someone develops an unrealistic sense of danger about a situation or object.
22、The heat of competitions is a funny thing. And it is also a way of making us better. STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) competitions are no different, offering local, and even national events across a number of related subjects.

23、Happiness——you know it when you see it. 【1】. You might call it a sense of well-being, of optimism or of meaningfulness in life, although those could also be treated as separate entities(实体). But whatever happiness is, we want it.
【2】
There is substantial evidence that genetics play a big role in happiness. Research has shown that identical twins tend to have a similar level of happiness, more so than fraternal(异卵) twins. What's more, there seems to be a certain level of happiness that individuals have generally, to which they are usually attracted. 【3】.
Experiences make us happier than possessions
【4】? Several studies suggest it is experiences rather than possessions that make us happier. That's partly because once you have purchased something, such as a new car, you get used to seeing it every day and the initial joy fades, experts say. However, you can continue to get happiness from memories of experiences over time.
Happiness means living in the moment
If you're seeking to increase your own sense of happiness, try mindfulness techniques. Mindfulness means being present and in the moment, and observing in a nonjudgmental way. 【5】 For physical health, it's not so much happiness that counts, but this ability to regulate and have a sense of purpose and meaning.
A．However, it's hard to define
B．Happiness is a matter of attitude
C．Happiness comes from genes and environment
D．What is the relationship between happiness and money
E．Would you be happier if you bought the car you always wanted
F．That level depends on the person, and the situations he or she is in
G．Being able to manage emotion is important for both body and mind
24、Procrastination(拖延) may be a problem that everyone struggles with now and then. It can be tough to begin or advance major projects or challenging tasks timely. 【1】.
Get down to your work.
Force yourself to begin. This might seem too simplistic, but even sitting down to begin a project or buying some necessities for a home repair, for example, can help change your mindset. 【2】, especially when it comes to overcoming procrastination.
Avoid interruptions as much as possible. When you finally sit down to complete a task, it can be discouraging to get interrupted repeatedly, whether it’s an impolite roommate or an electronic device like your phone. 【3】.
Increase your productivity.
Break tasks down into manageable sizes. 【4】. Breaking down projects into smaller goals can help you stop procrastinating and face up to your work, thus acting quickly.
Reward yourself for completing tasks. Even if your project is something you dislike, you can help yourself get started by promising yourself something enjoyable upon its completion. Having something to look forward to can inspire you to fight procrastination.
【5】.
Don’t procrastinate because of a desire for perfection. Our obsession(痴迷) with perfection can cause us to procrastinate indirectly. It can lead to working endlessly on a project until it’s past its deadline. Accept that you only need to do your best and then hand in your work. Don’t procrastinate just because you think it might not be perfect.
A．Set specific goals for yourself
B．Maintain reasonable expectations
C．After all, not everyone can make it – no sooner said than done
D．The old saying that getting started is half the battle is really true
E．However, there are practical ways for you to fight procrastination
F．This can cause a break and make it easy to go back to procrastination
G．Pressure from worrying about huge projects can cause you to put off them
