问题  
Are you afraid to raise your hand in class, even when you know the answer? If you are, most people would say that you’re shy.
    If you feel shy, you’re not alone. Nine out of ten people are at least a little shy. But however shy you are, scientific evidence seems to show that it isn’t your fault. [16]You may have been born that way.
     [17]How do psychologists measure shyness? One way is by observation. They keep detailed records of people’s actions—like how often these people speak to others, or how long it takes someone to say hello to a stranger.
    Another way to measure shyness is to ask people questions. The test only takes about 10 minutes. It asks questions like "Do you like going out a lot?" and "Do you have many friends?" People must answer either yes or no. These questions can predict how people actually behave in social situations. Suppose the test tells you that someone is shy. Chances are good that a person will act shy.
    When scientists measure shyness, they’re really comparing degrees of shyness. In other words, when researchers say people are shy, they really mean they are shyer than others.
16. Why does the speaker say that it isn’t a fault to be shy?
17. What is one of the ways suggested by psychologists for measuring shyness?
18. What is the purpose of the psychologists in asking questions?

选项 A、To observe people’s attitude towards strangers.
B、To see how people get along with their friends.
C、To test people’s behavior in social life.
D、To find out how shy people are.

答案 D

解析 第二种方法是问问题,其目的是测试人们的羞涩程度。动词不定式选项,一般问目的或打算。围绕主题做选择往往是最简便的方法。A、B、C都与本文主题没什么关系。
