Girl A(the older one).retuming from the hospital's ICU to her bed.was seared and almost passed out at the first looking like a ghost,as she saw herself reflected by the steel railings (around her bed.She said,"I met a ghost on the railing.How horrible!I was really afraid,but I didn't break down completely. When does one feel thankful for his or her survival?It must be now like this.Thank goodness!I am still aive.” The first phone call Girl A gave Girl B(the younger one)raised a question,"Do you know why I am so glad?"She gave the answer without waiting for a reply."Because when I got hold of a loop (on a bar in the bus to make myself stand like others,I felt very happy that I had a pair of hands." Girl B's words were also very moving.She replied,"Hey,you know.don't be surprised by what I'm going to say.It was true.Let me ask you first.Do I look pretty?No,of course not.But before 11 years old.I was pretty.I had snow-white skin,big eyes and a round face.I was also a wild kid.I think I'd grow up naughty if I was not properly educated.I would fall in love with other boys and become a bad girl,if I hadn't met the disaster.I disliked going to school.I'd prefer playing all day long.If there were not such a fire,I wouldn't have had chances of meeting so many kind strangers that help me realize how wonderful life is.If there were not such an accident,I would grow into a beautiful lady.But now I am more considerate, grateful,hard-working and independent.Such a person as I am today will always be pretty all my life."

D Are you shy?If you are,you are not alone.In fact,nearly 50 percent of people are shy.Almost 80 percent 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 15 to 20 percent 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 66 percent of them had elder brothers and sisters.The scientists said that these children were often bullied()by their elder 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 leam 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-third people said so.What explains the differenee?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()themselves for their failure.In Israel,the opposite is true.Israelis often blame failure on 梁 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 conversations. 41.What can we leam from Paragraph 1? A.Scientists have no idea about why people are shy. B.Few people feel shy at some point in their lives. C.It is common for a person to be shy. D.Being shy is an interesting thing. 42.Scientists say shy babies are than other babies.
