| Fear and its companion pain are two of the most useful things that men and animals possess,if they are properly used. If fire did not hurt when it burnt, children would play it until their hands were bumt away. Similarly , if pain existed but fear did not,a child would bum itself again and again , because fear would not warn the child to keep away from the fire that had burnt him or her before. A really fearless soldier-and some do exist-is not a good soldier because he is soon killed;and a dead soldier is of no use to his army. Fear and pain are therefore two guards without which men and animals might soon die out. In our first sentence we suggested that fear ought to be properly used. If, for example ,you never go out of your house because of the danger of being knocked down and killed in the street by a car, you are letting fear rule you too much. Even in your house you are not absolutely safe:a plane may crash on your house, or ants may eat away some of the wood in your roof , and they later may fall on you , or you may get cancer! The important thing is not to let fear rule you , but instead to use fear as your servant and guide. Fear will warn you of dangers; then you have to decide what action to take. In many cases, you can take quick and successful action to avoid the danger. For example , you see a car coming straight towards you ; fear warns you , you jump out of the way , and all is OK. In some cases, however, you decide that there is nothing that you can do to avoid the danger. For example, you cannot prevent a plane from crashing into your house , and you may not want to go and live in a desert where there are no plants. In this case , fear has given you its waming;you have examined it and decided on your course of action,so fear of this particular danger is no longer of any use to you , and you have to try to overcome it. | |

| The global energy crisis is approaching. What can we do? Here are some steps you can take. Cooling puts the greatest stress on your summer energy bill and the power grid (电网 ). Just as a tune-up for your car can improve your gas mileage, a yearly tune-up of your heating and cooling system can improve efficiency and comfort. Clean or replace filter monthly or as needed. For central air conditioning systems and room air conditioners , look for the ENERCY STAR, the federal government"s symbol for energy efficiency. For central air, purchase the system with the highest possible Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratia( SEER) . Use energy-efficient ceiling fans either alone or with air conditioning. Ceiling fans do a great job of circulating air. When used with air conditioning , fans allow you to raise the thermostat (恒温器) and cut costs. Ceiling fans cool people, not rooms. so before you leave; tum off the ceiling fan. Let a programmable thermostat " remember for you " to automatically adjust the indoor climate with your daily and weekend patterns to reduce cooling bills by up to 10 percent. You can come home to a comfortable house without wasting energy and creating pollution all day while you are at work. Try to make your home airtight enough to increase your comfort, make your home quieter and cleaner and reduce your cooling costs up to 20 percent. Cut your air conditioning load, and reduce pollution by planting leafy trees around your home and fixing reflective bricks on your roof. Close blinds or shades on south-and west-facing windows during the day , or fix shading equipment to avoid heat build-up. Turn off everything not in use: lights, TVs, computers. And use fluorescent bulbs(荧光灯),which provide bright,warm light while using at least two-thirds less energy, producing 70 percent less beat and lasting up t0 10 times longer than incandescent bulbs(白炽灯). Drive the car that gets better gas mileage whenever possible if you own more than one vehicle. If you drive 12,500 miles a year, switching 10 percent of your trips from a car that gets 20 miles per gallon to one that gets 30 mpg will save you more than $65 per year. Carpool. The average US commuter(乘车上班族) could save about $260 a year by sharing cars twice a week with two other people in a car that gets 20. 1 mpg-assuming the three passengers share the cost of gas. | |
