I was painfully shy as a child. In high school I would avoid participating in class discussions. I was too afraid to talk to anyone but my closest friends~ I would think about being less shy, wanting the courage not only to ask a girl out, but to speak up in class and say what I was thinking. Yet, it never happened. Fears showed themselves in such self-conscious questions as, " What will other people think? What if she says no?" I felt a dark presence in my mind holding me back.
This shyness continued into college. One day, the question occurred to me: Is life shy?
The thought surprised me ! Think of the leaves bursting out in the spring time, the bird singing at dawn, the sheer number of different forms of life, all expressing the wideness and scope of divine life. There's nothing shy about it. Life is everywhere and attention-grabbing (引人注意的). So, if my creator isn't shy about all the life that needs expressing, I don't need to be either.
I realized that if I wanted to overcome fear and shyness, I would have to put this law of life into practice~ Shyness, fear, and loneliness were hindering me from living my life as life: God wanted me to live it. Therefore, I decided to live how life saw me.
One example: I wrote a note to a girl, asking her out on a date. Even as I was writing it, the fears of disaffirmation and unworthiness came to me. This time however, instead of shrinking back and hiding from the fear, I put the note in the campus mail in spite of myself. I thought: whether she says yes or no, it's still right for me not to be shy. I can live with the confidence sent from the source of my life. The girl saw me in class the next day and told me that she would love to go out with me. I should not have been so surprised!
Bit by bit, I was proving that the limited view of myself no longer had control over me. After college, I worked as a newspaper reporter, earned an advanced degree in theater, became a productive writer (a lifelong dream), met a special woman whom I married, and even got a job teaching at a university.
1.The writer was shy as a child because of______.
A.a(chǎn)wareness that life is shy
B.lack of courage to speak out in public
C.fear of others' attitude and reaction
D.failure in his participation in class discussion
2."The law" in Paragraph 4 refers to the fact that______.
A.life is attention-grabbing and divine
B.God treats everything and everyone fairly
C.everything in nature is in the favour of God
D.the creator of life which needs expressing isn't shy
3.It can be learnt from Paragraph 5 that the writer______.
A.didn't hesitate before sending the note
B.wouldn't regret sending the note despite the result
C.was not surprised when the girl agreed to go out
D.believed in God and felt encouraged by the wideness of life
4.The underlined word "disaffirmation" in Paragraph 5 probably means______.
A.rejection B.laughter C.regret D.horror
5.The purpose of writing the text is to______.
A.blame those who are shy and unconfident
B.persuade people to have confidence in their career
C.share the personal experience with the readers
D.prove that the overcome of shyness helps achieve success

When I was fifteen, I announced to my English class that I was going to write my own books. Half the students smiled unkindly, 36 nearly fell out of their chairs laughing. “Don’t be 37 , only geniuses can become writers,” the English teacher said, “And you are getting a D this term.” I was so ashamed I burst into 38 . That night I wrote a short sad poem about broken dreams and mailed it to the newspaper. To my 39 , they published it and sent me two dollars. I was a published and paid writer. I showed my teacher and fellow students. They laughed, “Just plain dumb luck,” the teacher said. I 40 success. I’d sold the first thing I’d 41 written. That was more than any of them had done and if it was just dumb luck that was fine with me.
During the next two years I sold dozens of poems and letters. By the time I graduated from high school, I had scrapbooks (剪貼簿) 42 my published works. I never 43 my writing to my teachers, friends or my family 44 because they were dream killers.
