7．Are you shy？If you are，you are not alone．In fact，close to 50percent of people are shy．Almost 80percent of people feel shy at some point in their lives．These days，shyness is becoming more and more common．Now，scientists are trying to understand shyness．They have some interesting ideas about why people are shy．
Is it possible to be born shy？Many scientists say yes．They say 15to 20percent of babies behave shyly．These babies are a little quieter and more watchful than other babies．Interestingly，these shy babies usually have shy parents．As a result，scientists think  that some shyness is genetic．
Family size might cause people to be shy as well．Scientists at Harvard University studied shy children．They found that 66percent of them had older brothers and sisters．As a result，they became shy．At the same time，children with no brothers and sisters may be shy as well．Growing up alone，they often play by themselves．They are not able to learn the same social skills as children from  big families．
You may  also be shy because of where you were born．When scientists studied
shyness in different countries．They found surprising differences．In Japan，most people said they were shy．But in Israel，only one of three people said so．What explains the difference？One scientist says the Japanese and Israelis have different opinions of failure．In Japan，when people do not succeed，they feel bad about themselves．They blame（责备）themselves for their failure．In Israel，the opposite is true．Israelis often blame failure on outside reasons，such as family，teachers，friends，or bad luck．In Israel，freedom of opinion and risk taking are strongly supported．This may  be why Israelis worry less about failure and are less shy．
For shy people，it can be difficult to make friends，speak in class，and even get a good job．But scientists say you can get over your shyness．They suggest trying new things and practicing conversation．And don't forget---if you are shy，you are not the only one．

In 1973，even that record was broken．Builders fled the twin towers of the World Trade Center．At 1，368feet high，they rose above all other buildings in New York City．
Time goes on．As technology improves，taller buildings are being built．The race is still on．

8．Although people everywhere seem to enjoy drinking coffee，they don't all have the same coffee culture．In Europe for example，coffee shops are common places for people to meet friends and to talk while they drink coffee．On the other hand，places like this were not as common in North America in the past．Instead，people in North America liked to drink coffee in their homes with friends．The coffee culture in the USA changed when Starbucks coffee shops spread across the country．
The first Starbucks coffee shop opened in 1971in downtown Seattle，Washington，in the USA．It was a small coffee shop that cooked its own coffee beans．The coffee shop's business did well，and by 1981there were three Starbucks stores in Seattle．
Things really began to change for the company in 1981．That year，Howard Schultz met the three men who ran Starbucks．Schultz worked in New York for a company that made kitchen equipment．He noticed that Starbucks ordered a large number of special coffee makers，which caused his great interest．Schultz went to Seattle to see what Starbucks did．In 1982，the original Starbucks owners hired Schultz as the company's head of marketing（市场营销）．
In 1983，Schultz traveled to Italy．The special environment of the espresso （浓咖啡） bars there caught his eyes．Back in the USA，Schultz created an environment for Starbucks coffee shops that was comfortable and casual，and customers everywhere seemed to like it．Starbucks began opening more stores across the USA．Then the company opened coffee shops in other countries as well．Today，there are more than 16，000Starbucks coffee shops all over the world．
However，that does not mean Starbucks has not had problems．In fact，many Starbucks stores have closed over the past few years．On the one hand，this is because there were too many coffee shops competing for business in one small area．On the other hand，stores in some countries closed because the coffee culture there did not match with the"feel the same everywhere"environment offered by Starbucks．
