Question

【題目】Normally people have various feelings. Shyness(害羞) is one of them. It means feeling frightened when you are around other people. Some children were born shy. Some become very shy later because of life experience. In fact, everyone gets a little shy sometimes. It depends on how shy you are. If shyness doesn’t stop you from doing something you want to do, being shy isn’t a big problem.

Scientists say that shyness generally begins during childhood. Most of the time, shyness is caused by people’s worry about what other people think of them, so shy people often find it very difficult to meet new people. This fear has bad effects on their work life, social life and love life. The following suggestions may be helpful for shy people.

Find ways to relax when you go out .When you are old enough, consider drinking a glass of wine before going out for the night. Talk with your friend or family member to help yourself calm down.

Look best when you go out. Wear something that makes you feel confident and comfortable. Listen carefully when people speak. Shy people sometimes think that meeting new people means having to do a lot of talking. You can ask simple questions and then be a good listener. People love to feel like other people are listening to them and sharing their point of view.

Build your confidence and change your attitude(態(tài)度) towards meeting new people instead of worrying about how they will think of you, and think about what are good points you hope to find in the new person you will meet.

Try these suggestions if you do feel very shy. Hopefully you can enjoy your life better.

本篇文章難度適中，主要講述害羞的含義、特點(diǎn)以及如何克服。

【1】根據(jù)It means feeling frightened when you are around other people可知，講述的是害羞的含義，meaning含義，用單數(shù)，故填meaning。

【2】根據(jù)If shyness doesn’t stop you from doing something you want to do, being shy isn’t a big problem可知，如果害羞不會(huì)阻止你做事情，那么他就不是一個(gè)大問(wèn)題，problem問(wèn)題，且空前有a，用單數(shù)，故填problem。

【3】根據(jù)so shy people often find it very difficult to meet new people可知，害羞的人經(jīng)常發(fā)現(xiàn)，會(huì)見新朋友是不容易的，故填easy。

【5】根據(jù)Build your confidence and change your attitude(態(tài)度) towards meeting new people instead of worrying about how they will think of you可知，不要擔(dān)心人們是怎么看你的，worry擔(dān)心，且根據(jù)stop doing可知，故填worrying。
