閱讀理解。
     People often talk as if shyness is a disease or mental condition that can be cured.  I prefer to think of it as an emotional disability. It's something we are bom with and something we carry with us in our entire lives. There are too many people,however,who seem to be determined to find some ways of doing away with their shyness. In my opinion,it's a waste of time. I don't mean that we should do nothing about it;quite the
contrary,I think we need to separate the basic fact of shyness from our ability to take part in a social
environment.
      Look at one of the most famous shy people of them all,Johnny Carson. This man is painfully shy,yet
for decades he made a living talking and associating(交往) with different people every night,in front of a
national audience.  Carson has never done away with his shyness,but he has successfully found a way to
deal with it to the extent that he could be, not just a talk show host,but a legend(傳奇) among talk show
hosts.  Look also at Sally Fields,who has recently admitted her problem with shyness. This is a woman
who has appeared in many films,TV shows and interviews,yet in her early years she was so shy that she
tumed down a lunch invitation from Jane Fonda because she was terribly afraid of meeting her.
      I guess that our shyness is there because each of us is bom with some msecurity(不安全感) and this
insecurity prevents us from reaching out to others the way people with a more open personality do. As we grow up and become adults,we allow our social skills to grow and develop. But we are still stuck in kindergarten or elementary school or wherever it was when our shyness took root in our soul.
1. In the author's view,shyness can be explained as ______.
A. a disease that can be easily cured        
B. a not very normal mental condition
C. an emotional disability                    
D. something we pick up after birth
2. The author believes it's a waste of time to _____.
A. develop a healthy personality            
B. talk with as many people as possible
C. study where shyness comes from      
D. look for ways to do away with one's shyness
3.  Which of the following is TRUE of Johnny Carson?  
A. He dared to speak in front of a national audience.
B. He did away with his shyness carefully.
C. He was described as a hero in some legend books.
D. He failed to become a good talk show host.
4. The passage tells us that Sally Fields was ______
A. proud all the time                            
B. impolite when young
C. shy in her early years                        
D. close to Jane Fonda
5. The author thinks that our shyness is there because ______.
A. we are not open enough                    
B. we don't feel safe at heart
C. we try to reach out to others all the time    
D. we lack certain social skills

       Your audience is going to come away with one or two of your main ideas．One or two．Not tenor 20．  68  ．And if you don't have a clear idea of what you want to say, there's no way vour audience will．  69   ___—how you are going to open, what major points you want to make and how you're going to close．

       When I do a radio or TV piece, I often write the last sentence first．___70___．A strong close is critical; the last thing you say is what your audience will most likely remember．

       The standard length of a vaudeville act is usually 12 minutes．If all those performers singing and dancing their hearts out couldn't go on longer without boring the audience, what makes you think you can?

       A．Some people are bom to be good at making speech

       B．Anybody who can talk can speak in public

       C．Try to relax yourself before making the speech

       D．The more important the speech is, the more frightened we become
