Nearly everyone is shy in some ways. If shyness is making you uncomfortable, it may be the time for a few lessons in confidence. You can build your confidence by following some suggestions from doctors.

Make a decision not to hold back in conversations. What you have to say is just as important as what other people say. And don’t turn down party invitations just because of your shyness.

Prepare yourself for being with others in groups. Make a list of good qualities you have. Then make a list of ideas, experiences, and skills you would like to share with other people. Think about what you would like to say in advance. Then say it.

If you start feeling self-conscious (自我意識) in a group, take a deep breath and focus your attention on other people.Remember, you are not alone. Other people are caring about the impression they are making, too.

No one ever gets over being shy completely, but most people do learn to live with their shyness. Even singers admit that they often feel shy. They work at fighting their shy feelings so that they can face cameras and the public. Just making the effort to control shyness can have many rewards(回報). But perhaps the best reason to fight shyness is to give other people a chance to know more about you.

It is a cold and dry winter morning. When you wake up, you feel that your throat (喉嚨) hurts. You begin to sneeze (打噴嚏) and later you may cough. You must have a cold! Wait a moment. Could it just be a common cold or the flu that’s been going around?

A cold gives you a runny nose and cough. But it’s usually easy to deal with. Some take medicine while others drink herbal (草藥的) tea or chicken soup. Usually you feel better after a week.

On the other hand, the flu can be much more dangerous. It usually gives you a fever. Sometimes it can cause death. According to an American magazine, the worst flu killed about 50 million people from 1918 to 1919.

Don’t worry. If you get a flu vaccine (疫苗), it can stop you from getting the virus (病毒). Flu vaccines work by giving body a small amount of flu viruses. This causes your body to develop antibodies (抗體). So next time you get the flu, the antibodies should help you.

The flu virus changes every few years. Therefore, there are so many types of flu, such as H1N1 and H5N1. The antibodies for one type of flu can’t help us against all types of flu. That’s why we need to get the vaccine every year.

However, good health habits may also help stop you from developing a cold or flu. Washing your hands often helps stop you from getting viruses. It is also important to get regular exercise and eat healthy food. All these can help you strengthen your immune system(增強免疫系統(tǒng)).

Everyone wants to be perfect. Finding a good way to achieve self-improvement (自我提高) is more and more popular. For this, the beginning of a new year is a great time to think about ways that you can improve in the coming year. Here are some suggestions for New Year’s resolutions(決定).

Firstly, make sure your goal is realistic(現(xiàn)實的). Winning the lottery(彩票), for example, may not come true. Then, describe your resolutions in detail, instead of “I don’t want to be lazy”, “ I want to exercise every day” or “I will cut down on my television watching”. At last, break down large goals into small ones. For example, if you want to lose weight, you can start by joining a gym or improving your eating habits.

Your New Year’s resolutions and goals can be about anything, from saving more money so that you can buy a really cool toy that you like, to making more friends, or to spending more time with your family. Start by writing down some goals on a piece of paper. After you finish, keep the paper somewhere you can see, like on your fridge or a wall in your room. Don’t forget to check the things on the paper that you have completed as some time passes.

What are magic words? Words like “ thank you”, “ please” and “sorry” can work wonders in our daily life. These polite expressions are used every day in America—among strangers, between friends or with family. People with good manners always communicate with others well by using these magic words. What should you do when you receive a gift for your birthday? You had better sit down and write a letter of thanks. The words “thank you” are very important and used very often. We say them when someone hands us a letter, passes us a book, offers us a drink, or lends us an umbrella.

“Please” is another important word, but many people forget to use it. It is not polite to ask someone for help without saying “please”. We are supposed to use it when we ask for something , too. It may be a book , a pen, or more milk. It may be in the classroom, at home, or at the bus stop. We can use “please” to make a request(請求) pleasantly.

We should learn to say “sorry”,too. If we have hurt someone’s feelings we will have to say “sorry”. When we have told a lie and regret it, the same word should be used. Sometimes we have forgotten something or broken a promise, so we need to explain with the word as a beginning. “Sorry” is such a word that can make people forget wrongs.

“Thank you! Please!Sorry!”—these words are simple but useful. Man said them long ago.

We use them long ago. We use them now. So will our kids.
