分析 ---昨晚我打电话的时候，你为什么不接？
---抱歉，当时我正在楼上洗澡．

13．My name is Chelsea Chowderhead．A chowder is a kind of soup．I was laughed at because of my last name as soon as I started school．So when my family moved to South Carolina，I asked my dad if I could change my name．
"You shouldn't change who you are．Let people get to know you first and your name later．When you meet someone new，ask them a good question，something you're really interested in．Once people start talking about themselves，they don't judge you．"

I took a deep breath and said，"I'm Chelsea Chowderhead．"
"Chowder？Like the soup？"asked Nathaniel．
"Yes，"I replied，looking down．
"Hey，cool!Do you want to come over after school and play basketball with us？"Nathaniel asked．I nodded．And that is how I became friends with the twin brothers．

11．Nearly everyone is shy in some ways．If shyness is making you uncomfortable，it may be time for a few lessons in self-confidence．You can build your confidence by following some suggestions from doctors and psychologists．
Make a decision not to hold back in conversations．What you have to say is just as important as what other people say．And don't turn down party invitations just because of your shyness．
Prepare yourself for being with others in groups．Make a list of the good qualities you have．Then make a list of ideas，experiences，and skills you would like to share with other people．Think about what you would like to say in advance．Then say it．
If you start feeling self-conscious in a group，take a deep breath and focus your attention on other people．Remember，you are not alone．Other people are concerned about the impression they are making，too．
No one ever gets over being shy completely，but most people do learn to live with their shyness．Even entertainers admit that they often feel shy．They work at fighting their shy feelings so that they can face the cameras and the public．Just making the effort to control shyness can have many rewards．But perhaps the best reason to fight shyness is to give other people a chance to know more about you．
