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.

1.The first paragraph is mainly about______.

       A.the cause of shyness        B.the effect of shyness on people

       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.

Writing articles about films for The Front Page was my first proper job.Before then I had done bits of reviewing --- novels for other newspapers, films for a magazine and anything I was asked to do for the radio.That was how I met Tom Seaton, the first arts editor of The Front Page, who had also written for television.He hired me, but Tom was not primarily a journalist, or he would certainly have been more careful in choosing his staff.

    At first, his idea was that a team of critics should take care of the art forms that didn’t require specialized knowledge: books, TV, theatre, film and radio.There would be a weekly lunch at which we would make our choices from the artistic material that Tom had decided we should cover, though there would also be guests to make the atmosphere sociable.

   Tom’s original plan for a team of critics for the arts never took off.It was a good idea, but we didn’t get together as planned and so everything was done by phone.It turned out, too, that the general public out there preferred to associate a reviewer with a single subject area, and so I chose film.Without Tom’s initial push, though, we would hardly have come up with the present arrangement, by which I write an extended weekly piece, usually on one film.

    The space I am given allows me to broaden my argument --- or forces me, in an uninteresting week, to make something out of nothing.But what is my role in the public arena(舞台)? I suppose that people choose what films to go to on the basis of the stars, the publicity of the director.So if a film review isn’t really a consumer guide, what is it? I certainly don’t feel I have a responsibility to be ‘right’ about a movie.Nor do I think there should be a certain number of ‘great’ and ‘bad’ films each year.All I have to do is put forward an argument.I’m not a judge, and nor would I want to be.

1.What do we learn about Tom Seaton from the first paragraph?

       A.He encouraged Mark to become a writer.

       B.He had worked in various areas of the media.

       C.He met Mark when working for a film company.

       D.He prefers to employ people that he knows.

2.The weekly lunches were planned in order to ______.

       A.help the writers get to know each other

       B.provide an informal information party

       C.divide the work that had to be done

       D.entertain important visitors from the arts

3.What does the author mean when he says that Tom’s plan ‘never took off’ in Paragraph 3?

       A.It was unpopular.               B.It wasted too much time.

       C.It wasn’t planned properly.     D.It wasn’t put into practice.

4.Which of the following best describes what Mark says about his work?

       A.His success varies from year to year.   B.He prefers to write about films he likes.

       C.He can freely express his opinion.     D.He writes according to accepted rules.
