根据短文判断下面句子的正确(T)与错误(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 (注意力). In fact, everybody gets a
little shy sometimes, even the great people in history. When Thomas Edison was young, he loved Shakespeare (莎士比亚) 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 (语句支离) 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 (勇敢).
●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.
