问题    Do you have a phobia(恐惧症) ? Does it spread? No, it is not an infectious(传染的) disease, but it can make you quite as bad. A phobia is an unreasonable fear of some particular thing or situation. Do you know that some people fear heights? That is called acrophobia. Many people experience claustrophobia when they are in a closed space such as a small room or an elevator. Zoophobia is a fear of animals. There are names for fear of thunder, lightning, wide open spaces, people, crowds, darkness, water, and many other things.
   A phobia expert tells us that in the coming of a phobic situation, a person has what is called an "anxiety attack". Blood rushes to his larger muscles in preparation for fight or flight.
   One expert on phobia suggests we reduce our fears gradually. A person who is afraid of people could overcome this fear by getting accustomed to them one at a time. Someone who is afraid of water could take swimming lessons in a pool with a lifeguard at hand. A person afraid of heights could practice looking down from middle heights first until he could handle the greater ones.
A good way to overcome one’ s unreasonable fear of something would be______.

选项 A、trying to avoid it
B、preparing for fight or flight
C、getting rid of the anxiety attack
D、trying to get used to it

答案D

解析 根据文章最后一段第二句“A person who is afraid of people could overcome this fear by getting accustomed to them one at a time.”可知,克服对一些事物莫名恐惧的方法就是逐渐地适应它。故选D。
