     Everybody is afraid of something.That's what more than 1,700 kids told us when we

asked them about fears and scary stuff.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 (调查):

① Scary movies and TV shows；②Scary dreams；③Thunderstorms,hurricanes(飓风)；

and other horrible weather；④War and terrorism (恐怖行动)；⑤Sounds 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 wasn't on our list.

     What is fear?

     Fear is a feeling that eyeryone has-it's programmed into all of us-and that's a good thing

because fear is there to protect us.We're 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.Pretend

     The 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

William's imagination leads him to think of witches,he can tell himself,"Wait a minute.They're

only pretend things.I don't need to worry about them."

     The same goes for the dark.A kid's imagination can start playing tricks when the lights go

out.What's 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 nightlight or shining a flashlight under the bed to see that

there's nothing there can help kids fight that fear.
