    Shyness is the cause of much unhappiness for a great many people. Shy people are anxious and self-conscious; that is, they are concerned with their own appearance and actions too much. Negative 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 unfavorably. 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 deep effect on all areas of their lives.

    Shy people, who have low respect, are likely to be passive and easily influenced by others. They need faith that they are doing "the right thing". Shy people are very sensitive to criticism. It makes them feel inferior（自卑）.They also find it difficult to be pleased by praises because they believe they are unworthy of praise. A shy person may respond to a praise 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 got rid of, or at least reduced? Fortunately, people can overcome shyness with determination since shyness goes hand in hand with lack of self respect. It is important for people to accept their weakness as well as their strengths. Each one of us has his or her own characteristics. We are interested in our own personal ways. The better we understand ourselves, the easier it becomes to live up to our chances for a rich and successful life.

    A.the cause of shyness

    A.harmful to people

    B.a weak point of shy people

    C.the cause of unhappiness

    3.What is the shy people's reaction to praise?

    A.They are pleased by it.

    B.They feel it is not true.

    C.They are very sensitive to it.

    D.They feel they are worthy of it.

    4.We can learn from the passage that shyness can ______.

    A.block our chances for a successful life

    Life is filled with challenges. As we get older we come to realize that those challenges are the very things that shape us and make us who we are，it is the same with the challenges that come withfriendship．When we are faced with a challenge，we usually have two choices. We can try to beat it off, or we can decide that the thing presenting the challenge isn’t worth the trouble and call it quits．Although there are certainly times when calling it quits is the right thing to do，in most cases all that is needed is commitment(承诺)and communication．

    When we are committed to something， it means that no matter how painful or how uncomfortable something is，we will always choose to face it through instead of running away from it．Communication is making a space for discussion and talking about how you feel as opposed to just saying what the other person did wrong. If you can say to a friend，“I got my feelings hurt．” rather than“You hurt my feelings．”you are going to be able to solve the problem much faster．

    In dealing with many challenges that friendship will bring to you, try to see them for what they are：small hurdles you need to jump or get through on your way through life．Nothing is so big that it is impossible to get over, and hurt only serves to make us stronger．It is all part of growing up，it happens to everyone，and some day you will look back on all of this and say,“Hard as it was，it made me who I am today．And that is a good thing．”

    1.What is the underlined word“committed”can be replaced by ____________.

    A．devoted B. satisfied

    C．smpdsed D．interested

    2.It can be inferred from the text that _____________．

    A. friendship needs challenges

    B．challenges shape our character

    C．small hurdles aren’t worth the trouble

    D. commitment promotes friendship

    3.The writer suggests that _____________ when faced with a challenge．

    A. one should call it quits

    B. one should temporarily run away from it

    C. one should be committed and communicable

    D．one should lay it a side for a while

    4.According to the passage，if your friend hurts your feelings，you are well advised to _______________．

    A．forget it

    B．talk to him／her about it directly

    C．communicate properly with him／her

    D．run away from it

    5.The whole passage is centered on the relationship between _____________．

    A．friendship and challenges
