The weather is getting hotter. You are thirsty playing

basketball or riding home from school. A cold drink may

be just the thing. But be careful what you are drinking.

Something that looks cool may not be good for your health.

There are plenty of "energy drinks" on the market. Most of

them have beautiful colors and cool names. The lists on

them tell you they are helpful to your health. Sounds great!

But after a careful check you may find that most energy drinks have lots of caffeine (咖啡因) in them. These drinks are especially aimed at young people, students, busy people and sports players. Makers sometimes say their drinks make you better at sports and can keep you awake. But be careful not to drink too much.

Caffeine makes your heart beat fast. Because of this, the International Olympic Committee has limited( 限制) its use. Caffeine in most energy drinks is at least as strong as that in a cup of coffee or tea. Possible health dangers have something to do with energy drinks. Just one box of energy drink can make you nervous, have difficulty sleeping and can even cause heart problems. Scientists say that teenagers should be discouraged from taking drinks with a lot of caffeine in them.

As a child, I was really afraid of the dark and of getting lost. These fears were very real and caused me some uncomfortable moments.

Maybe it was the strange way things looked and sounded

in my own room at night that scared me so much. There was

never complete darkness, but always a streetlight or passing

car lights, which made clothes on the back of a chair take on

the shape of a wild animal. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw

the curtains(窗簾) seem to move when there was no wind. A

very low sound in the floor would seem a hundred times       

louder than in the day. My imagination (想象) would run wild, and my heart would beat fast. I would lie very still so that the "enemy(敵人) " would not discover me.

Another of my childhood fears was that I would get lost, especially on the way home from school. Every morning I got on the school bus right near my home. That was no problem. After school, though, when all the buses were lined up along the street, I was afraid that I would get in the wrong one and be taken to some other strange places. On school or family trips to a park or a museum, I wouldn't let the leaders out of my sight.

Perhaps one of the worst fears of all I had as a child was that of not being liked or accepted by others. Being popular was so important to me then, and the fear of not being liked was a serious one.

One of the processes(過(guò)程) growing up is being able to realize and overcome our fears. Understanding the things that scared us as children helps us achieve greater success later in life.

A. Streetlight and car lights                                         B. Wild animals and enemies

3.When she went to some other places, she would _________.

A. walk away without others                                           B. take a bus by herself

C. follow others closely                                            D. make sure not to take a wrong bus

4.Which of the following would be possibly true when she was a child?

A. She was usually popular among people.

B. She was always the leader of the others.

C. She always' got poor grades.

paid, and that the money they get will help kids learn important skills of
