When I was young, I was kind of shy. Fortunately, I changed a lot by junior high. Shyness gets in the way of success, but it doesn't have to hold you back. Here are some tips that may help you overcome it.

1. The excitement of being lost at something that you love can help you forget your nervousness while showing off in public.

Next, why not get more chances to speak in public? For me, when I got to high school, I took speech classes. 2.

Then, don’t think about what will happen. It’s possible that you might be laughed at when speaking. 3. What really happens is better than what we imagine.

Finally, remember past successes. Whether it is making a successful speech, remembering past successes can help inspire you to get future success. 4. If you succeeded in the past, then you can succeed again!

It's actually natural to be a little bit nervous about meeting new people, making cold calls, or giving a speech. That nervousness doesn't have to keep you from succeeding, though.

A. First of all, you’d better concentrate on what you enjoy.

B. These successes are "proof" that you can do it.

C. I still feel a little uncomfortable when I realize.

D. However, others may not even notice your mistake.

E. I could even take part in speaking competitions.

Honesty comes in many forms. First there’s self-honesty. Is what people see the real article or do you appear through smoke and mirrors? I find that if I try to be something I’m not, I feel unsure of myself and take out a part from my PBA (personal bank account). I love how singer Judy Garland put it, “Always be a first-class version (版本) of yourself, instead of a second-class version of somebody else.”

Then there’s honesty in our actions. Are you honest at school, with your parents, and with your boss? If you’ve ever been dishonest, I think we all have. Try being honest, and notice how well it makes you feel. Remember, you can’t do wrong and feel right. This story by Jeff is a good example of that: In my second year of study, there were three kids in my math class who didn’t do well. I was really good at it. I would charge them three dollars for each test that I helped them pass. I’d write on a little piece of paper all the right answers, and hand them off.

At first I felt like I was making money, kind of a nice job. I wasn’t thinking about how it could hurt all of us. After a while I realized I shouldn’t do that anymore, because I wasn’t really helping them. They weren’t learning anything, and it would only get harder down the road. Cheating certainly wasn’t helping me.

It takes courage to be honest when people all around you are getting away with cheating on tests, lying to their parents, and stealing at work. But, remember, every act of honesty is a deposit (储蓄) into your PBA and will build strength.

3.What does the author expect to show by Jeff’s story?

A. Honesty can be of great help.
