fear didn't, a child would burn himself again and again, because fear would not warn himself to keep away from the fire that

　　had burnt himself before. A really fearless soldier is not a good soldier because he will soon be killed; and a dead soldier is

　　of no use to his army. Fear and pain are therefore two guards without which human beings and animals might soon die out.

　　[2]In our first sentence we suggested that fear should 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 you may get cancer!

　　[3]The important thing is not to let fear rule you, but to use fear as your servant and guide instead. Fear will warn

　　you of dangers；then you have to decide what action to take.

　　[4]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, then you jump out of the way, and all is well.

　　[5]In some cases, however, you decide that there is nothing that you can do to ________. For example，you can't prevent a plane crashing onto your house. In this case, fear is no longer of any use, and you have to try to overcome it.
