Question

phobia n.恐怖病；恐怖症 (1) 有时，这种极度偏执狂的结果便是恐怖症。(2) 恐怖症是一种过分的或者过度的对某个特定的事物或者场景的恐惧，而这个事物和场景通常被认为是无害的。 The thing to remember about phobia is that it describes an irrational fear. If you’re afraid of a black widow spider, for example, that’s not a phobia — it’s just smart, because the spider is poisonous. If you’re afraid of all spiders, however, and the sight of a harmless daddy long legs spider has you shaking in terror, then you may have a phobia. In this case, it's a phobia because your reaction is irrational.
