Shyness may not seem to be a serious complaint, but for some who suffer from it, it can become unbearable Even talking to a small group of people you know can seem like an ordeal - it can feel as if you’ve been asked to give a speech on a topic you know very little about to a number of experts You start to feel hot and shaky, your heart beats faster, your knees feel weak, you begin to stutter and the whole experience seems to last forever

The fact of the matter is that shyness is something we often recognize in others: blushing

is one of the more visible signs, for example Yet we do not judge someone harshly because

of this But shyness does mean you are harder to approach, so you become more isolated As one shy person put it, “It’s like being in a prison, and it’s very hard to break out.”

Experts on the subject have come up with various possible solutions, and one has been singled out as being the key to success, namely, finding an interest in common with other people Spending a lot of time on the sidelines watching other people and envying them because they are much more outgoing doesn’t help; remembering that some of the people you envy most are probably shy themselves The secret is how you deal with it And experts have come up with four things you can do today to help Firstly, you can start by listening to other people You will find yourself getting interested in what they’re talking about and asking questions, and before you know it, you’ll be having a conversation Secondly, you could try asking neighbors if you can walk their dog Like children, pets can be excellent icebreakers for conversations with passers-by Thirdly, try joining a class to learn something like tap-dancing or flamenco, where people are likely to laugh a lot You’ll feel relaxed, and also you’ll be much too busy concentrating on what you are doing to feel shy Lastly, try telling yourself that it doesn’t matter if you say or do something silly Most people make a fool of themselves every so often, and it’s not the end of the world if you do

Question 27 One of the symptoms of shyness in a stressful situation is

A. sweating a lot B. an increased heart rate

❖ Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions

Every drop of water in the ocean, even in the deepest parts, responds to the forces that create the tides No other force that affects the sea is so strong Compared with the tides, the waves created by the wind are surface movements felt no more than a hundred fathoms below

the surface The currents also seldom involve more than the upper several hundred fathoms despite their impressive sweep

The tides are a response of the waters of the ocean to the pull of the Moon and the more distant Sun In theory, there is a gravitational attraction between the water and even the outermost star of the universe In reality, however, the pull of remote stars is so slight as to be obliterated by the control of the Moon and, to a lesser extent, the Sun

Just as the Moon rises later each day by fifty minutes, on the average, so, in most places, the time of high tide is correspondingly later each day And as the Moon waxes and wanes in its monthly cycle, so the height of the tide varies The tidal movements are strongest when the Moon is a sliver in the sky, and when it is full These are the highest flood tides and the lowest ebb tides of the lunar month and are called the spring tides At these times the Sun, Moon, and Earth are nearly in line and the pull of the two heavenly bodies is added together

to bring the water high on the beaches, to send its surf upward against the sea cliffs, and to draw a high tide into the harbors Twice each month, at the quarters of the Moon, when the Sun, Moon, and Earth lie at the apexes of a triangular configuration and the pull of the Sun and Moon are opposed, the moderate tidal movements called neap tides occur Then the difference between high and low water is less than at any other time during the month

Question 45. What is the main point of the first paragraph?

A. The waves created by ocean currents are very large

B. Despite the strength of the wind, it only moves surface water

C. Deep ocean water is seldom affected by forces that move water

D. The tides are the most powerful force to affect the movement of ocean water

Question 46. The word “felt” in line 3 is closest in meaning to

Question 47. The words “In reality” in line 8 are closest in meaning to

A. surprisingly B. actually C. characteristically D. similarly

Question 48. It can be inferred from the passage that the most important factor in

determining how much gravitational effect one object in space has on the tides is

Question 49. The word “correspondingly” in line 11 is closest in meaning to

A. unpredictably B. interestingly C. similarly D. unusually

Question 50. What is the cause of spring tides?

A. Seasonal changes in the weather

B. The gravitational pull of the Sun and the Moon when nearly in line with the Earth
