Sir Steven Redgrave—Winner of 5 Olympic Gold Medals
“In 1997 I was found to have developed diabetes (糖尿病), believing the profession(职业) trained for the whole of my life ended, I felt very sorry. Then one of my friends said there was no reason why I should stop training. That was it—the encouragement I needed. I could still be a winner if I believed in myself. I am not saying that it isn’t difficult sometimes. But I wanted to prove to myself that I wasn’t finished yet. Nothing is to stand in my way.”
Karen Pickering—Swimming World Champion (冠军)
“I swim 4 hours a day, 6 days a week. I manage that amount（总数） of work by putting it on top of my diary. This is the key to success—you can’t follow a profession in any field without being well-organized. Make a list of what you believe you can achieve. Trust yourself, write down your goals for the day, however small they are, and you’ll be a step closer to achieving them.”
Kristen Stewart—Actress
“When things are getting hard, a voice inside my head tells me that I can’t achieve anything. Then, there are other distractions, such as family or hobbies. The key is to give most of your attention to one thing. When I feel nervous, it helps a lot to repeat words such as ‘calm’, ‘peace’, either out loud or silently in my mind. It makes me feel more in control and improves my confidence. This is a habit and is a powerful psychological(心理学的) tool.”The underlined word “ distractions” probably means ________.
| A．good habits | B．things that make one tired |
| C．words to enjoy | D．things that turn one’s attention away |

I was really shy in the past. Talking to strangers was my worst fear. But now I am outgoing. Now let me share with you some ways of getting rid of shyness completely. In this step you need to accept your shyness and be comfortable with it. You can start by saying to yourself repeatedly, “Yes, I am shy and I accept it.”
For 99% of us, we become shy when we think if we speak up or stand out, we’ll embarrass (使……尴尬) ourselves. That’s why it’s important to focus on others and place our attention elsewhere. When we stop focusing on ourselves, we will stop worrying about the embarrassment.
This is the most important way. Talk to strangers and force yourself to have long conversations with others. It’s extremely hard in the beginning but each time you do it, the difficulty will decrease (减少). Keep doing it until it becomes a piece of cake.
There will be always someone who is better than you. The more you compare yourself with others, the shyer you will be. It’s no good to you comparing yourself with anybody else.
Before you start a conversation, make sure that you have a small list of things in your mind which you’re going to talk about. I used to get well-prepared before I talked to someone.
| A. Pay attention to others B. Make yourself talk with others C. Prepare for the conversation D. Accept your shyness E. Don’t compare yourself with others |
