Is there anything strange on the top of the world's highest mountains? If so, is it a bear? Is it a monkey? Or is it a kind of man?

    No one 1. The world has tried their best to know more about this mystery (神秘) for years. In 1887, 2 mountain climber found very big footprints of a very large man. 3 man doesn't walk barefoot（光脚）in the snow. In 1906, 4 climber saw more than footprints. To his surprise, he saw a great hairy animal 5 on two legs. As he watched, it ran out of sight（视线）.

    Fifteen years later, there were 6 about the thing in the newspapers. A mountain climber said that he had seen the “snowman”   7 slowly across the snow, far below him. He said it looked like a very large hairy man.

    From that time on, more and more people had stories to tell. But not until 1951 did a mountain climber bring back 8 of giant (巨大的) footprints. The picture showed 9 that the snowman walked on two legs. So it was not a bear or a monkey. Could it be an ape man? The mystery grew!

    And the mystery keeps on growing. 10 men still hunt the snowman in the high mountains. Some day we may find out just what it is that makes the giant footprints.

    Michael Hassard, a former engineer for NASA, hikes and camps, takes long bicycle rides and plays football. He always looks active, 1he cries quite often. "I keep paper towels at hand all the time," says Mr. Hassard.

    Mr. Hassard cries so2just because he is a Highly Sensitive(敏感的）Person(HSP). This kind of person is very sensitive to feelings-their own and3of others. Mr. Hassard first realized he was highly sensitive in his early teens. He said when he sang in the church, there were songs that he had a hard time4. Why? They moved him so much. Sometimes his friends5his tears and asked him what was wrong. He always answered," Nothing, I'm fine." Finally, he learned to control his feelings6practicing the songs over and over again in his free time.

    Researches of HSPs show differences in their neural(神经的）activity. Compared with non-HSPs, HSPs pay7attention to the environment around them and care more about the 8 of their friends and parents.

    Scientists say that high sensitivity can be 9 in at least 100 spices(物种). We cannot have the idea that HSPs are different from us and stay far away from them. Instead, we should help them find 10 to deal with their feelings. In modern times, HSPs can be excellent teachers, artists, reporters, etc.
