Shyness is the cause of much unhappiness for a great many people. Shy people are anxious and self-conscious; that is, they are excessively concerned with their own appearance and actions. Worrisome thoughts are constantly occurring in their minds: What kind of impression am I making Do they like me Do I sound stupid Am I wearing unattractive clothes
It is obvious that such uncomfortable feelings must affect people adversely. A person’s self- concept is reflected in the way he or she behaves, and the way a person behaves affects other people’s reactions. In general, the way people think about themselves has a great effect on all areas of their lives.
Shy people, having low self-esteem, are likely to be passive and easily influenced by others. They need reassurance (放心) that they are doing "the right thing". Shy people are very sensitive to criticism; they feel it confirms their inferiority (自卑). They also find it difficult to be pleased by compliments (赞扬) because they believe they are unworthy of praise. A shy person may respond to a compliment with a statement like this one, "You’re just saying that to make me feel good. I know it’s not true." It is clear that, while self-awareness is a healthy quality, overdoing it is harmful.
Can shyness be completely eliminated (消除), or at least reduced Fortunately, people can overcome shyness with determined and patient effort in building self-confidence. Since shyness goes hand in hand with lack of self-esteem, it is important for people to accept their weaknesses as well as their strengths.People’s expectations of themselves must be realistic. Living on the impossible leads to a sense of inadequacy.
Each one of us is a unique, worthwhile individual. We are interested in our own personal ways. The better we understand ourselves, the easier it becomes to live up to our full potential. Let’s not allow shyness to block our chances for a rich and fulfilling life.

Passage 1
Scientists discovered that atoms of
some substances are radioactive. This means that they are unstable and can be
split. The chain of splitting atoms releases great destructive energy and it was
this discovery which led scientists to develop the idea of an atomic bomb. The
American government secretly worked to produce such a bomb and the first version
was much more powerful than anyone had thought.
By this time,
the World War Ⅱ had ended in Europe. But the Japanese refused to surrender, the
Americans decided that by dropping an atomic bomb on Japan, they could end the
war quickly and save more of their soldier’s lives.
Soon after
midnight on 6 August 1945, a bomb was dropped on the city of Hiroshima, a
civilian target. No warning was given and there was total devastation. Almost
all the buildings were destroyed and more than 100000 people died or were
horribly wounded.
The Japanese military still did not want to
surrender so three days later, the Americans dropped a second atomic bomb on the
city of Nagasaki, killing 45000 people. The Japanese government was discussing
ending the war when they heard the news of Nagasaki. Finally, they surrendered
and the World War Ⅱ came to an end.
At first, the scientists who
had built the bomb were pleased that it had helped to end the war. However, many
would come to realize that they had helped to create the most terrible weapon
known to man. |
What’s the attitude scientists toward atomic bomb ______.
A:Pleased B:Worried C:Disapproved D:Not mentioned
