One day while shopping in a small town in southern California, it was my misfortune to be approached by a clerk．He seemed most unfriendly and not at all concerned about my intended purchase．I bought nothing, and marched angrily out of the store．
On the outside was a dark-skinned young man in his early twenties．His expressive brown eyes met and held mine, and in the next instant a beautiful, bright smile covered his face．I gave in immediately．The power of that broad smile dissolved all bitterness within me, and I felt the muscles in my own face happily responding．
"Beautiful day, isn't it?" I remarked, passing．Then I turned back．"I really owe you a debt of thanks," I said softly．

In that moment I felt transformed．The young man's smile had made a big person of me．My friendliness and good will toward all mankind stand ten feet tall．
“Yes,” my reply was enthusiastic and sincere, “tell him I said, ‘Thank you!’”
“Thank you?” The woman seemed slightly puzzled．
I gave her arm a friendly pat as I turned to leave．"Just tell him that," I insisted．"He'll understand．I am sure!"
Oh, what a smile can do! Although I have never seen that young man again, I shall never forget the lesson he taught me that morning．From that day on, I became smile-conscious, and I practice the art diligently anywhere and everywhere, with everybody．

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.
【小題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
【小題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
【小題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
【小題4】The underlined word "disaffirmation" in Paragraph 5 probably means______.
A．rejectionB．laughterC．regretD．horror
【小題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

For the last couple of weeks, I had been stuck in front of my computer working on a project that was very important to me. My every waking hour was consumed by the project and although I imagined that I would feel happy after completing parts of the project, I was confused to find that instead, I was feeling rather depressed. I tried a range of methods to help cheer myself up. I had a relaxing bath, cooked a delicious meal to enjoy with my family and even watched a lighthearted movie, but to no avail. It was only when I turned to meditation(沉思)for a solution that the answer came to me: turn to nature!
The very next day, I grabbed my camera and a bottle of water and set off to spend a few hours walking in a nature reserve, even though it was pouring with rain. Within a couple of minutes I felt alive again. To be honest, I felt like a young school girl again and had to stop myself from hopping along the path singing, "I'm singing in the rain", a song I used to sing when I was a child. I think as adults we often try too hard to control our inner children and as a result we restrain(限制) our own spirits, which only leads to depression and stress.
Interestingly, it has been shown that people who spend 40 minutes walking in a nature reserve have a drop in their blood pressure levels, but this does not happen when they spend a similar amount of time walking in a busy city centre.
If you feel a little low in spirit and know that you have spent too much time indoors, relax completely, remove your shoes and let your inner child come out and play.
【小題1】 The author felt depressed because she __________.

A．couldn't consume her waking hour
B．had not seen a film for a long time.
C．had not finished her work on time
D．had worked on a hard job for too long
【小題2】The author walked in a nature reserve in the rain in order to__________.
A．take photosB．find a solution to the project
C．hop along the pathD．cheer herself up
【小題3】 The underlined part "to no avail" in Paragraph 1 probably means " __________.".
A．unsuccessfulB．unrelatedC．uninterestingD．unexpected
【小題4】In the author's opinion, __________.
A．a(chǎn) bath can make people relaxed
B．depression is usually caused by hard work
C．walking in a busy city centre harms people's health
D．a(chǎn)dults should express their inner feelings freely
【小題5】The last paragraph mainly serves as a(n) __________.
A．explanationB．suggestionC．introductionD．reminder
