    　　From a very early age, some children exhibit better self-control than others．Now, a new study that began with about 1,000 children in New Zealand has tracked how a child's low self-control can predict poor health, money troubles and even a criminal record in their adult years．

    　　Researchers have been studying this group of children for decades now．They observed the level of self-control the youngstrrs displayed．Parents, teachers, even the kids them-selves, scored the youngstrers on measures like“acting before thinking” and “Persistensce in resching goals．”

    　　The study led by Moffitt of Duke University and colleagues followed 1,000 children from birth to age 32 in Dunedin, New Zealand．

    　　“The children who had the lowest self-control when they were age three to ten, later on had the most health problems in their 30s,” Moffitt said, “and they had the worst financial situation, They were more likely to have a criminal record and to be raising a child as a sin-gle parent on a very low income．” Moffitt explained that self-control problems were widely observed, and weren't just a feature of a small group of misbehaving kids．

    　　Moffitt said it's still unclear why some children have better self-control than others, though she said other resesrchers have found that it's mostly a learned behavior, with rela-tively little genetic influence．But good self-control can be set to run in families because chil-dren with good self-control are more likely to grow up to be healthy and prosperous parents．But the good news, Moffitt said, is that self-control can be taught by parents, and through school curricula that have been shown to be effective．

    　                              Fear can be a wonderful feeling in our lives, protecting us from dangerous situations and keeping us safe. But fear can also limit our lives significantly. While it may not be conscious, fear may make us think we are unacceptable or that what we have to offer isn’t valuable. Fear may make us feel that we are not safe being ourselves.
    To avoid feeling fear, we may limit our lives greatly, living in tiny boxes. Living this way gives us the illusion(假象) of safety but leaves us with an unfulfilling life of no passion. If we shine a light on many of our fears, we see they have a very limited view of what is “safe” and how to “protect” us. Many of our fears are concerned only with protecting us from humiliation(羞辱) and failure. While these fears are doing their jobs incredibly well, they are doing so with faulty and outdated programming. Many fears we have as adults are trying to protect us as they protected us when we were children. Indeed, many of our current, automatic reactions to fear were actually formed when we were children.
    Even so, it’s important not to judge ourselves for feeling these types of fears. If we judge ourselves, we will bury our fears or disguise them. By denying our fears, however, we also deny our energy, creativity and passion.
    So what do we do with fear? We recognize the fear for what it is--- a feeling we’ve experienced many times in the past and a feeling we will experience many times in the future. We become very familiar with our own particular brand of fears and how we allow them to control our lives. It is especially beneficial for each of us to become aware of the particular behavior patterns we’ve adopted when we feel fear, so we can look at our reactions with a sense of humor and compassion. Then, if we wish, we can choose a different response, which can be a scary yet very exciting experience.
    66. According to the first paragraph, fear sometimes                   .
    A. protect us when we’ve made mistakes          B. makes sure our feelings are not hurt
    C. brings great change to our everyday life        D. makes us lose confidence in ourselves
    67. It can be inferred from the passage that the author                 .
    A. thinks it difficult to control our fear             B. believes fears protect us negatively
    C. thinks it’s good to criticize ourselves            D. values the advantages of feeling fear
    68. According to the author, the ways we react to fear                    .
    A. vary from person to person            B. have been formed since childhood
    C. develop during our growth            D. will not change until we get old
    69.The last paragraph mainly tells us                       .
    A. what is the essence of fears         B. usual reactions we have when feeling fear
    C. how to deal with fears reasonably     D. the importance of humor and compassion
    70.What would be the best title for the passage?
    A. Is fear managing your life?         B. Be calm when feeling fear
    C. What do you fear most?           D. Passion, chance and fear
