If you think you are too shy and want to be a little bit braver, just try the following things;

Be open to others. Tell people you are shy. There is no need to hide it.

When they get to know you are a shy kid, they will understand you better. This also helps you feel more comfortable in talks.

Try to smile more. When you smile, people think you are friendly and easy to talk with. Remember that other people have feelings, too; and most people will stay away from an angry-looking face.

Learn to be a good talker. If you find it hard to start a conversation, say something nice about people around you. Think about how great you feel when someone says something nice to you. Doesn’t it make you want to keep talking to that person?

Get your attention elsewhere. Think more about ways to enjoy parties or games. Don’t waste time worrying about your look or whether people like you or not. You will become relaxed and find it’s not so hard to talk with others.

Take one small step at a time. Each time when you say “Hi!”or smile at someone, say to yourself ”You can make it.” Keep trying and one day you’ll never feel shy when you talk to others.

In America,when people say “man’s best friend”,they don’t mean another person. Instead,they are talking about a lovely animal—a dog! These words show the friendship(友谊)between people and animals. Dogs and other pets can give joy to people’s lives. Some people think of their pets as their children. Some people even leave all their money to their pets when they die!

Animals can help people,too. Dogs can be taught to be the “eyes” for a blind person(盲人)or “ears” for a deaf(耳聋)person. Scientists have found that pets help people live longer! They make people happier,too. Because of that,they bring animals into hospitals for “visits”.

Americans hold “Be Kind to Animals Week” in the first week of May. Pet shows are held during the week. Even if you don’t live in America,you,too,can do this. How? First think about how animals make your life richer. If you have a pet,take more time this week to play with it. Remember to give it delicious food.

If you don’t have a pet,be kind to animals around you. For example,if you see a street dog,just leave it alone,or make friends with it. If others around you do bad things to animals,try to speak up. As people,we must protect(保护)animals who can’t speak for themselves.
