do they like me? do i sound stupid? am i wearing unattractive clothes? it is obvious that such uncomfortable feelings must affect people unfavorably. a persons self-concept is reflected in the way he or she behaves and the way a person behaves affects other peoples reactions. in general, the way people think about themselves has a deep effect on all areas of their lives. shy people, who have low respect, are likely to be passive and easily influenced by others. they need faith that they are doing“the right thing”. shy people are very sensitive to criticism. it makes them feel inferior (自卑). they also find it difficult to be pleased by praises because they believe they are unworthy of praise. a shy person may respond to a praise with a statement like this one: “youre just saying that to make me feel good, i know its not true.”it is clear that, while self-awareness is a healthy quality, overdoing it is harmful. can shyness be completely got rid of, or at least reduced?

a. they are pleased by it. b. they feel it is not true. c. they are very sensitive to it. d. they feel they are worthy of it. 4. we can learn from the passage that shyness can. a. block our chances for a successful lifeb. help us to live up to our full developmentc. enable us to understand ourselves betterd. have nothing to do with lack of self-respect【参考答案】5. bdba 阅读“beijing, sep. 10 (xinhuanet)the extra-large model baby in the spain pavilion (馆) was conceived (构思) by a spanish filmmaker,” shi yingying reports. visitors admiring the 6.5-meter-high giant baby, miguelin, in the spain pavilion may be surprised to realize that it was not the concept of a famous designer or a group of groundbreaking engineers. it came from one filmmakers interpretation of the meaning of “better city, better life”. spanish director isabel coixet developed the idea after being asked to contribute to expo 2010 shanghai. “they asked me to do something to tell the chinese audience about spain in the future and the first thing jumping to my mind was a baby,” said coixet. “if we really fight to have better cars, better cities and better lives, its for themfor our children.”despite her spanish heritage, coixet doesnt focus on making spanish films or using spain as the setting. fans of her various award-winning films, including my life without me, the secret life of words and elegy, may not even be aware of coixets spanish background. “the borders between countries are just illusion (假象),” said coixet. “some directors feel really comfortable telling stories that belong to their territory.”but coixet feels the opposite: “im more comfortable outside my country. it gives me a strange freedom.”one of her favorite things about being a director is the freedom. “the thing is that the world is wide and this freedom lets you make films everywhere,” she said. coixets curiosity took her latest exploration and movie work to japan. in the movie map of the sound of tokyo, the catalan actor sergi lopez is the owner of a wine shop in tokyo, and japanese actress rinko kikuchi is a young woman who works both as a fishmonger and as a hired killer. the clash (冲突) of the two peoples very different worlds and the tango-like relationship they develop is just one representation of what coixet is able to produce by mixing cultures. while she doesnt know if she will shoot a film in shanghai, two things have caught her attention: shanghainese women and crickets (蟋蟀). after just arriving in the city, she was surprised by the mix of old chinese culture in a booming metropolis. “behind the skyscrapers,
