问题 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 negatively affect people. A person’s conception of himself or herself 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 profound 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 that they are doing “the right thing.” Shy people are very sensitive to criticism; they feel it confirms their feelings of inferiority. They also find it difficult to be pleased by 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, or at least reduced? Fortunately, people can overcome shyness with determined and patient efforts in building self-confidence. Since shyness goes hand in hand with a lack of self-esteems, it is important for people to accept their weakness as well as their strengths. Each one of us is a unique, worthwhile individual, 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.

选项 1、What does the author try to prove by citing “what kind of impression am I making?” A. Shy people benefit from their caring about their appearance B. People’s shyness made them care too much about their appearance and actions C. It’s natural that shy people don’t believe other’s compliments D. Shy people think they are different from others

答案 B

解析这是一道推断题。本题询问作者通过引用“我给人留下了什么印象?”是为了试图说明什么。这段话出现在文章的第一段当中。文章一开始谈到害羞的人过分在意自己的形象和行为，之后列举了很多会在他们脑海当中出现的不安的想法，“我给人留下了什么印象?”就是这些不安的想法当中的一个，因此判断出这句话就是为了试图说明羞怯会使他们过分关注他们的形象和行为。因此选择B。
