Shyness may not seem to be a serious complaint, but for some people who suffer from it, it can become unbearable. Even talking to a small group of people you know can seem difficult – it can feel as if you’ve been asked to give a speech on a topic you know very little about to a number of experts. You start to feel hot and shaky. Your heart beats faster, your knees feel weak, you begin to stutter and the whole experience seems to

last forever.

The fact of the matter is that shyness is something we often recognize in others: blushing (going red) is one of the more visible signs, for example. Yet we don’t judge someone harshly because of this. But shyness does mean you’re harder to approach, so you become more isolated. As one shy person put it, “It’s like being

in a prison, and it’s very hard to break out.”

Experts on the subject have come up with various possible solutions, and one has been singled out as being the key to success – namely, finding an interest in common with other people. Spending a lot of time

on the sidelines watching other people and envying them because they are much more outgoing doesn’t help; remembering that some of the people you must envy are probably shy themselves, does. The secret is how

you deal with it. And experts have come up with four things you can do today to help.

Firstly, you can start by listening to other people. You will find yourself getting interested in what they

are talking about and asking questions – and before you know it, you’ll be having a conversation.

Secondly, you could try asking neighbours if you can walk their dog. Like children, pets can be excellent icebreakers for conversations with passers-by.

Thirdly, try joining a class to learn something like tap-dancing or flamenco, where people are likely to laugh a lot. You’ll feel relaxed, and also you’ll be much too busy concentrating on what you’re doing to feel shy.

Lastly, try telling yourself that it doesn’t matter if you say or do something silly. Most people make a

fool of themselves every so often – and it’s not the end of the world if you do!

A38. What do scientists believe?

1) Only a few people possess the shyness gene.

2) Everybody is shy.

3) People can learn to manage shyness.

A39. What happens to shy people in a stressful situation?

1) They keep talking for a long time.

2) Their heart rate increases.

3) Their legs can no longer support them.

A40. What do experts believe is the answer to shyness?

1) Studying others in social situations to see how they act.

2) Discovering shared interests with others.

3) Comparing yourself to other people.

A41. To overcome their shyness, a person should … .

1) … learn to laugh more

2) … help other people in the community

3) … take up a “social” hobby

Beautiful Britain.

1. Leeds Castle: Leaving Trafalgar Square, we cross the River Thames and head towards Greenwich and Blackheath. We will then reach Leeds Castle, in the heart of Kent countryside. Leeds Castle was built by a famous minister, Led, in the 9th century. The castle was first made of wood, but then rebuilt in stone by the Normans in the 12th century. It has described as the most beautiful castle in the world, and is set in 500 acres

of beautiful gardens, parkland and lakes. It is traditionally associated with royalty, and Henry VIII built many

of the fine apartments we can see today.

2. Windsor and Hampton Court: Our journey through the beautiful Thames Valley leads to Windsor Castle which was originally built by William the Conqueror in the 11th century, but the English kings and queens

have made many changes in the last 900 years. As you walk through Henry VIII’s gateway, you reach the

place where eight kings are buried. There is also an amazing variety of swords, helmets, cloaks and flags of every Knight who has been there. After leaving Windsor Castle, we head for Hampton Court. This was first built by the infamous Cardinal Wotsey, who, when he displeased Henry VIII, had it taken away from him.

At Hampton Court you can see two of the earliest English examples of a tennis court and vineyard.

3. Salisbury, Stonehenge and Bath: We’ll see the graceful spire of Salisbury Cathedral long before we arrive in the city. This marvel of 13th century architecture has the tallest spire in England. Salisbury Cathedral is set in acres of beautiful green parkland. From Salisbury we head towards Stonehenge. There are several of these prehistoric sites in this part of England – Avebury, for example – but Stonehenge is by far the most famous. Built over 4,000 years ago, it is still a religious centre for Druids, and you will hear how ancient Britons erected these huge stones. The last stop will be the city of Bath. It became famous in the 18th and 19th centuries for its healing Spa Baths. Built in Roman times, these baths are now perfectly preserved. The Royal Crescent, built at the height of 18th century elegance, is also well worth a visit.

4. Oxford and Warwick Castle: First we go to Oxford, the “city of dreaming spires” and a centre of scholarship for 800 years. There will be time to visit many if the ancient University buildings, where you can learn about their origins, and also hear about some famous past students and the living traditions of college life. Next we drive to Warwick Castle – impressive and beautifully preserved. You can see the state rooms and the great hall. This is filled with old masterpieces by Rubens and Van Dyck. Along with beautifully laid out gardens, there is also the famous armoury and dungeon which has a magnificent collection of swords, armour and instruments of torture.
