Fears are something we all have. You need to face your fears and to get over them. However, it's easier said than d{#blank#}1{#/blank#}. Running away from your fears doesn't make them leave. It just makes them b{#blank#}2{#/blank#} than ever. We're never going to be completely fearless of everything we do, but we can at l{#blank#}3{#/blank#} be more fearless and confident.

    What are the fears that scare(吓唬) you much? Check w{#blank#}4{#/blank#} they are and get them out in the open. Are they things like height or snakes? Are you a{#blank#}5{#/blank#} to talk to girls or boys? Are you so shy that you are fearing to say the wrong things? These are common fears that i{#blank#}6{#/blank#} your daily lives.

    Before you can f{#blank#}7{#/blank#} them, you need to learn more about what makes you fearful of these situations. Communicating your fear is one way.

I love you, so I let you go

There was once a lonely girl. She wanted to get love very much. One day when she was walking in the woods, she {#blank#}1{#/blank#} two hungry birds. She took them home and put them in a small cage (笼子). She looked {#blank#}2{#/blank#} them with love and the birds grew strong. Every day they sang sweet songs for her. The girl felt great love for the birds.

One day the girl forgot {#blank#}3{#/blank#} the door to the cage. One bird flew from the cage. The girl was{#blank#}4{#/blank#} afraid that it would fly away. As it flew close, she caught it wildly. She was very happy.

Suddenly, she felt {#blank#}5{#/blank#} strange (奇怪的) with the bird. She opened her hand and looked surprisingly at the dead bird. Her {#blank#}6{#/blank#} killed it.

She noticed the other bird moving quickly in the cage. She could feel {#blank#}7{#/blank#} need for freedom. She guided (指引) the bird to fly into the air. She wanted the bird to be happy.

The bird flew around once, {#blank#}8{#/blank#}, three times. Finally, it flew closer and landed in her hand. It sang and sang. The music sounded the {#blank#}9{#/blank#} in the world. Then the girl realized {#blank#}10{#/blank#} important thing-- We should let go for love.
