4.You're standing with your classmates.Everyone is talking-except you.Perhaps you're afraid they will laugh at what you say.Or maybe you just aren't brave enough to speak.
I've been there,and so have many other people all over the world. Shyness is like a snake that crawls(爬进) into our mouths and stops us speaking.But we shouldn't let it stay there.
I am 29years old.Even today,that snake still sometimes visits me.But when I was in high school,I was so shy that I wouldn't talk to anyone except my parents and best friends.If a stranger asked me the way to a local shop,it was as if I'd forgotten how to talk
One summer,I got a job in a restaurant and that helped a lot.It meant I had to talk to customers.I had to tell them how much their meal cost.I had to ask them if they wanted to drink Coke or Sprite.I had to tell the people in the kitchen if someone wanted pickle(泡菜)on their sandwich.
This job taught me how to speak with people.
You may not be old enough to find a part-time job.But you can look for other chances to speak with people.You can offer to help an old woman carry her heavy bag.Or you can go to get a newspaper for your family.
If you do these things for a while,the"shyness"snake will soon begin to leave you alone.It'll look for another mouth to crawl into.

5.The underlined sentence(划线句子)in the second paragraph probably means"B"
A.I am sad because I know I will always be shy.

C.tell readers that it is not right to laugh at others
D.argue that it is right to keep silent in public

12.You may think that sailing is a difficult sport,but it is really not hard to learn it.You do not need to be strong.But you need to be quick.And you need to understand a few basic rules about the wind.First,you must ask yourself,"Where is the wind coming from?Is it coming from ahead or behind or from the side?"You must think about this all the time on the boat.The wind direction tells you what to do with the sail.
Let's start with the wind blowing from behind.This means the wind and the boat are going in the same direction.Then you must always keep the sail outside the boat.It should be at a 90° angle (角度)the boat.Then it will catch the wind best.
If the wind is blowing from the side,it is blowing across the boat In this case,you must keep the sail half way outside the boat.It should be at a 45° angle to the boat.It needs to be out far enough to catch the wind,but it shouldn't flap (摆动).It shouldn't look like a flag on a flagpole.If it is flapping,it is probably out too far,and the boat will slow down.
Sailing into the wind is not possible.If you try,the sail will flap and the boat will stop.You may want to go in that direction.It is possible,but you can't go in a straight line.You must go first in one direction and then in another.This is called tacking.When you are tacking,you must always keep the sail inside the boat.
