They laugh, talk and play games together happily. But when they are in a new place or meet someone they don’t know, they become afraid. They may not know what to say or how to start a conversation. For other people, shyness can be a problem. They become so worried that they cannot speak in front of people. But why are some people shy? Scientists once did a study on two-month-old babies. They found that of every five babies, one was very active. This kind of baby liked to make sounds and move around a lot. And one of every five babies was always quiet. These babies might be shy when they grew up. Family life can affect shyness. Studies show that shy children often have parents who don’t have many friends and don’t do many family activities. These families don’t often go on picnics or visit parks together. People who are active are sometimes more successful. But sometimes shyness can be a good thing. Shy people are often very good at listening. They are good friends because they listen more than they talk. This can also make them successful in their work or studies later on. ( )16.

C Nobody wants to lose, but we must accept that losing is a part of life. After all, we can’t win all the time. However, we can learn something valuable from every failure. This may help us succeed in the future. So we must know how to be a good loser. We mustn’t be afraid of losing. When we lose, just take it with a smile and look on the bright side of losing. Because of that, Edison achieved success. Edison failed 10,000 times before he invented the light bulb. When he was asked how he felt, he said that he hadn’t failed 10,000 times but had learned 10,000 things which didn’t work. We must know that history is full of examples of those who achieved success although they failed many times. Losing is not very disgraceful. It can bring us something good and it can be helpful. We must accept our failure and take advantage of it. Take action to walk out of failure. When we lose, think about what we did and how we can improve. If someone else can help, we’ll be lucky enough. Maybe he or she had the same experience before. Many people enjoy helping others solve problems. This can save us a lot of time in learning how to avoid the same mistakes in the future. We should face our failure when we lose. There is only one winner in every competition. Some win, while some lose. That is a usual way of life. If we lose a competition, we should offer our congratulations to the winners and share their happiness. That way, we won’t feel sorry for our failure. In a word, being a good loser will help us to succeed in life. It might be painful at the beginning, but there are many advantages. Good losers set examples to us, and most importantly, they can finally win. ( )21. What can we learn from every failure according to the text? A. A way of life. B. Something valuable. C. A secret of success. D. The meaning of life. ( )22. In the writer’s eyes, why did Edison achieve success? A. He got help from others. B. He avoided possible mistakes. C. He looked on the bright side of losing. D. He happened to make it. ( )23. What does the underlined word “disgraceful” probably mean? A. Bad. B. Personal. C. Dangerous. D. Interesting. ( )24. What does the writer advise the losers to do in a competition? A. To express regrets. B. To forget the failure. C. To congratulate the winners. D. To join in another competition. ( )25.

Listening to music or talking with friends can help us relax. Good health is the key to a happy life. Let’s start these small changes today! 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
