7.Shyness equals (等于) losing opportunities,less pleasure and fewer social connections,but there are ways to make it a thing of the past.
When I was fifteen,I was shy.I remember an attractive girl trying to talk with me.My shyness made me focus on me instead of her.I heard my own voice but not hers and I thought about what I was trying to say instead of what she was trying to say.
To overcome shyness you need to learn to relax.This gives you the space to practice certain conversational skills.Relaxed socializing (社交) is so pleasurable.To start reducing your own shyness,I want you to absorb the following tips and ideas and start to put them into practice.
Focus your attention away from yourself.Notice what other people are wearing and make a mental note,listen to their conversation,imagine where they might live,and make a point of remembering names.Not only does this give you more to talk about,it also reduces social anxiety,leaving you feeling calmer.
Ask people open questions.Many people like to talk about themselves and will find you interesting if you find them interesting.Ask questions that require more than a"yes"or"no"response such as"What do you like about this place?'rather than"Do you like this place?"Once they have answered,you can use add-on (追加) questions connected with the first such as"What other places do you like in this city?"Next you can express your views.This is a great way to get the conversation going.
Now I love meeting new people and suspect that my current social confidence would be unrecognizable to my fifteen-year-old self.
56.The author didn't pay attention to what the girl was saying because.B
A.her voice was very low            
B.he was shy and nervous
C.he was attracted by her appearance
D.he wasn't interested in her topic
57.It can be inferred from the text that.C
A.people will notice our appearance if we focus on their looks
B.shy people will have no friends unless they change themselves
C.shy people may suffer a great deal and may be less happy
D.girls like to show off their voices in front of boys
58.Which of the following questions will the author probably advise us to ask?D
A.What a lovely day,isn't it?
B.Do you like playing basketball?
C.Do you think he will pass the exam?
D.Why do you find that English is hard to learn?

57.C推理判断题.根据首句Shyness equals (等于) losing opportunities,less pleasure and fewer social connections,可知害羞的人内向、压力大、不快乐.故选C.
58.D推理判断题.根据Ask questions that require more than a"yes"or"no"response such as"What do you like about this place?'rather than"Do you like this place?"Once they have answered,you can use add-on (追加) questions connected with the first such as"What other places do you like in this city?"Next you can express your views.得知作者建议我们问的问题不是简单的"yes"or"no"就能回答的,要能表达对方的观点.由此推知,"为什么你觉得英语难学?"符合文意.故选D.

16.There are a lot of different people in the world,but despite our differences,we all want to get along with others.Humans are social beings,and we enjoy being treated nicely.
(31)D It is about treating people with respect and care.
Be a good listener.To start a conversation,it is important to listen first,especially when you are in a group.Don't indulge (放纵) yourself in instant chat when you have just arrived.Examine the situation and the conversation,and then say whatever you think fit.It is better to say something substantial,rather than something meaningless.(32)G Don't try to change people.It is not your job to change anyone else.It is not in your power to change anyone else.Let other people love how they want to live.(33)FIf you do not like the way someone acts,you can try to interact with them as little as possible.You can always maintain a good attitude towards them so that your relationship with them might change.
(34)B A little laughter goes a long way,and a smile eases tensions,whereas a frown can create tensions.If someone teases you,try to laugh it off.If someone is frowning,smile at them.Be mindful of your facial expression.If you are persistently and optimistic,people will cheer up when they see you coming.
State out right that you want to get along.(35)EFor these people,it really works to just say,"I really want us to work well together.I will help you and back you up,and you help me and back me up.

A.Therefore,it would be advisable to remain thoughtful of how you conduct yourself and deal with others around you.
B.Keep a smile.
C.In other words,do not allow yourself to take out your negative emotions on others around you.
D.Getting along with someone,regardless of their passions,isn't about being their best friends or sharing all their hobbies.
E.Some people do not take hints.Some people do not read body language.
F.You can only change how you interact with people,you can not change them.
G.So it is better to listen to what the conversation is about before speaking.
