IV. Speaking Out

Model 1 Shake off your fear of darkness!

Bob: People are frightened of lots and lots of different things. Are you frightened of anything in particular?

Laura: Well, I’m afraid of walking alone in an open field at night.

Bob: What are you afraid of?

Laura: I don’t know exactly. Sometimes a shadow ahead scares me stiff 1. Sometimes the sudden cry of a bird or something startles 2 me.

Bob: What are you staying by yourself in a dark room?

Laura: That can be even worse. When it’s absolutely dark and silent, I wouldn’t dare walk anywhere. And I wouldn’t dare make a sound. I just want to hide under a blanket.

Bob: If you are scared of the dark, you’ll miss a lot of interesting experiences.

Laura: I guess so.

Bob: To get the most out of life, you should find a doctor to help you shake off your fear of the dark.

Laura: Yeah, that’s good advice.
