Lenny had always thought of himself as a 37 person. He got worried before examinations. He worried about his job and health. All he wanted in life was to be safe and healthy. 38 , on January 15th, 2002, a plane crashed into the Potomac River in Washington. Lenny went to the river to see what was happening. He saw a woman in the 39 water. Lenny did not feel afraid. He kept very 40 and did a very dangerous thing. He jumped into the Potomac, 41 to the woman, and kept her head 42 the water. Seventy-eight people died that day. Thank to Lenny, it was not 43 .
When you are in a very 44 situation and feel afraid, the body automatically produces a chemical in the blood. The chemical is called adrenalin(肾上腺素). 45 adrenalin in the blood system, you will feel stronger and stronger and are 46 to fight or run away. However, when you are absolutely terrified, the body can produce too much adrenalin. When this 47 , the muscles become very hard and you find you 48 move at all. You are then paralyzed(使瘫痪，使麻痹) with fear. This is 49 when we are very frightened, we sometimes say we’re “petrified”, which means “stone”. We are very frightened 50 we become stonelike.
