Question

2．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．Itmakes 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．

Answer 1

分析 本文說(shuō)明了害羞對(duì)人們帶來(lái)的負(fù)面影響以及人們?nèi)绾巫霾丝梢詰?zhàn)勝我們的害羞的性格．

解答 29．A 段落大意題．根據(jù)本段第一句Shyness is the cause of much unhappiness for a great many people．可知害羞是很多人不開(kāi)心的原因，接下來(lái)解釋了人們不開(kāi)心的種種表現(xiàn)．所以本段主要介紹的是害羞對(duì)人的影響．故A項(xiàng)正確．
30．B 細(xì)節(jié)理解題．根據(jù)第三段最后一句It is clear that，while self-awareness is a healthy quality，overdoing it is harmful．自我意識(shí)是一種很健康的個(gè)人品質(zhì)，但是自我意識(shí)過(guò)高則是有害的．故B項(xiàng)正確．
31．B 詞義猜測(cè)題．根據(jù)文章內(nèi)容Shy people are very sensitive to criticism．Itmakes them feel inferior（自卑）．害羞的人對(duì)批評(píng)是很敏感的，而批評(píng)可以使得它們感覺(jué)自卑，結(jié)合選項(xiàng)，故B正確．
32．D細(xì)節(jié)理解題．根據(jù)最后一段第二句Fortunately，people can overcome shyness with determination since shyness goes hand in hand with lack of self respect．可知我們通過(guò)自己的決心可以戰(zhàn)勝自己的害羞．故D正確．

點(diǎn)評(píng) 本文是社會(huì)文化類閱讀理解．做這類題材閱讀理解時(shí)要求考生對(duì)文章通讀一遍，做題時(shí)結(jié)合原文和題目有針對(duì)性的找出相關(guān)語(yǔ)句進(jìn)行仔細(xì)分析，結(jié)合選項(xiàng)選出正確答案．推理判斷題也是要在抓住關(guān)鍵句子的基礎(chǔ)上合理的分析才能得出正確答案，切忌胡亂猜測(cè)，一定要做到有理有據(jù)
