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 sighs, 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 38 One of the symptoms of shyness in a stressful situation is _

A sweating a lot B an increased heart rate

C pain in the knees D excessive talkativeness

Question 39 Why do shy people become more reserved?

A Their social unease makes them more difficult to talk to

B They see that others are shy too

C Other people lack the patience to talk to them

D They dread being judged by others

A going green B going red C smiling D sweating

Question 41 What do experts believe is the most essential measure to be taken?

A Studying others‟ behavior in social situations

B Discovering shared interests with others

C Comparing yourself to other people

D Finding out what makes other people shy

Question 42 How can listening to others prove helpful in combating shyness?

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 following questions from 43 to 47:

A survey is a study, generally in the form of an interview or a questionnaire, which provides information concerning how people think and act In the United States, the best-known surveys are the Gallup poll and the Harris poll As anyone who watches the news during presidential campaigns knows, these polls have become an important part

of political life in the United States

North Americans are familiar with the many "person on the street" interviews on local television news shows While such interviews can be highly entertaining, they are

not necessarily an accurate indication of public opinion First, they reflect the opinions

of only those people who appear at a certain location Thus, such samples can be biased

in favor of commuters, middle-class shoppers, or factory workers, depending on which area the new people select Second, television interviews tend to attract outgoing people who are willing to appear on the air, while they frighten away others who may feel

intimidated by a camera A survey must be based on a precise, representative sampling

if it is to genuinely reflect a broad range of the population

In preparing to conduct a survey, sociologists must exercise great care in the wording of questions An effective survey question must be simple and clear enough for people to understand it It must also be specific enough so that there are no problems in interpreting the results Even questions that are less structured must be carefully phrased

in order to elicit the type of information desired Surveys can be indispensable sources

of information, but only if the sampling is done properly and the questions are worded accurately

There are two main forms of surveys: the interview and the questionnaire Each of these forms of survey research has its advantages An interviewer can obtain a high response rate because people find it more difficult to turn down a personal request for

an interview than to throw away a written questionnaire

In addition, an interviewer can go beyond written questions and probe for a subject's underlying feelings and reasons However, questionnaires have the advantage

of being cheaper and more consistent

Question 43 According to the passage, one advantage of live interviews over

questionnaires is that live interviews _

A minimize the influence of the researcher B are easier to interpret

C costless D can produce more information

Question 44 The word "they" refers to

A interviews B opinions C news shows D.North Americans

Question 45 Which word is given definition in the text?

A sampling B poll C survey D interview

Question 46 According to paragraph 3, which of the following is most important for an

effective survey?

A A sociologist who is able to interpret the results

B Carefully worded questions

C An interviewer's ability to measure respondents' feelings

D A high number of respondents

Question 47 What does the passage mainly discuss?

A The principles of conducting surveys

B The importance of polls in American political life

C Problems associated with interpreting surveys

D The history of surveys in North America
