One example from Wildlife Services of its work involved a farmer in Washington State, in the Pacific Northwest. Several years ago, thousands of
26、 Canada geese landed on his fields.

34、 or stress for youngathletes(运动员). Stress can be physical, emotional, or psychological, and research has indicated that it can lead to burnout (倦怠). Burnout has been described as dropping or quitting of an activity that was at one time enjoyable. The early years of development are critical years for
35、 learning about oneself. The sport setting is one where valuable experiences can take place.

36、at their feedback to youngsters can greatly affect their children. Youngsters may take their parentsand coachescriticisms to heart and find aflaw(缺陷) in themselves.
