Question

8．There's always that one student who never speaks．They constantly stare down at the desk or their work，afraid to direct their eyes else．Occasionally，they'll glance your way but only to look back down again．It is clear from their body language that the student is uncomfortable，but there's no way in making him feel at home．The timidity （胆小，羞怯） and the vulnerability（脆弱） in his eyes say all that needs to be said．
Though this student is an extreme example of an introvert（内向的人），there are still students like the student mentioned above．I know that one of this kind hide in the shadows of each of the world's classrooms．
In some countries，this little boy may swift through life successful，wealthy，and content with his life．However，the introvert cannot find comfort in America where there are outgoing，socially confident people，talking，shouting，and laughing for the world to hear．
America is a nation of those who peak freely．In fact，one of the most prized clauses of our Constitution is the freedom of speech．There is nothing we love more than the right to speak as we please，so much so that the burning of the American flag is a protected speech．Though it is looked down upon，the person who burnt the flag will not deserve a punishment of any kind．It's legal．
What seems to not be legal，however，is shyness．In a nation full of discussion，those who fear of speaking will not get by．In my high school，for example，teachers often hold Socratic Seminars of class discussion where students are expected to voice their opinions．Stressing the fact that what is said does not have to be correct，teachers encourage students to speak up．Most of the grades in my classes，in fact，rely heavily on participation．
Personally，I dislike public speaking．Class discussion where students mention repeated points over and over again is not my strength，but I must force myself to raise my voice．If I don't，often times there are other people talking for me．
Gradually I realized something else．Speaking stimulates the mind，enhances one's thoughts，and establishes a sense of confidence that wouldn't otherwise have been instigated．It may be uncomfortable and it may be embarrassing，but it's all worthwhile in the end．
Although I stress the importance of social confidence，it is not unheard of to see introverts stand out in various activities．In college，for example，they would be studying rather than spending the day with friends．They would be seen in a library rather than at a social event．Although these types of students lack the outgoing personality，they do not always lack the motivation and desire to succeed．Often times，the introverts will gather to form a friend group．Their happiness is from what brings them pleasure，and if they are content without speaking their mind，so be it．
