閱讀下面的短文，判斷正（T）誤（F）。

Are you too nervous to work out the problem when your teacher asks you to come to the blackboard？If your answer is“yes”，you get really shy．

Shyness means feeling frightened when you're the center of attention．In fact，everybody gets a little shy sometimes，even the great people in history．When Thomas Edison was young，he loved Shakespeare very much．He wanted to act in his play．But he was too shy．He didn't know what to do when there were people around．Later，he had to give up．But shyness didn't stop him from becoming a great inventor．

Some experts say shy people are cleverer because they think more and talk less．Shy people are also good at working with others because they think more for other people．Most people have red faces and talk in broken sentences when they get shy．It isn't a very big problem．But some become so shy that they can't do the things they want to do．This kind of shyness can be bad for a person．Here are some good ways to make you braver．

● Tell people you are shy．This can make others understand you better and help you easier in talks．

● Try to smile more．People think you are friendly and easy to talk to when you smile．

● Learn to be a good talker．Begin your talk with saying something nice about people around you．It's very helpful for keeping your talk．

● Put your attention somewhere else．Think more about ways to enjoy the party or the game．Don't waste time worrying about your looks or whether people like you or not.

參考譯文

當(dāng)老師讓你到黑板上做題時，你是否緊張得解不出來？如果你回答“是”，你就確實是個害羞的人。

害羞意味著當(dāng)你成為關(guān)注的焦點時，你會感到害怕。實際上，每個人都會時不時地有點害羞，即使是歷史上的偉人。托馬斯·愛迪生年輕時非常喜歡莎士比亞。他想?yún)⒓由瘎〉难莩觥５π吡?。只要周圍有人，他就不知道該怎么辦。后來，他只得放棄。但害羞并不妨礙他成為偉大的發(fā)明家。

有些專家說，害羞的人更聰明，因為他們想得多、說得少。害羞的人還擅長和別人相處，因為他們常為別人考慮。大多數(shù)人害羞時會臉紅，說話結(jié)結(jié)巴巴。這不是什么大問題。但有些人太害羞了，以致想做的事也做不成。這種害羞就有害了。下面提供幾條讓你更勇敢的好方法。

● 告訴別人你害羞。這會讓別人在談話時更好地理解你的行為并幫助你放松。

● 盡量微笑。當(dāng)你微笑時，別人會認(rèn)為你很友好，容易溝通。

● 學(xué)做一個健談的人。一開始，先對周圍的人說些贊美的話。這對完成談話很有幫助。

● 把注意力放在別的東西上。多想想如何享受晚會或活動。不要把時間浪費在關(guān)注自身形象或別人是否喜歡你之類的問題上。
