If so, you might be an introvert (内向的人). Introverts hate to chat about small subjects with people. T
11、hey are fine when you talk one on one but seem to get lost in the crowd when theres a group around.If youre talking to an introvert, you might find that your first few conversations go one of two ways. Either theyll seem to get bored and not say much or theyll seem to skate over small talk in favor
12、of more in-depth topics. What you need to know is that the introvert is not being rude. Its just that they dont like small talk. Heres why.Small talk serves as a gateway toward deeper conversation. Some introverts dont realize that small talk will actually help them get to the bigger topics. You don
13、t need to stay on small talk forever. However, sometimes introverts feel that even the short amount of time it takes to get into the real conversation is a waste of time. Small talk is very fast. Someone says something and thisshould be followed up with a quick response. But introverts like to chew
14、on their words before saying them aloud. Before they answer, theyll mull over different thoughts.Small talk by its very nature invites more people to join in. The more people who join theconversation, the more the introvert will tend to step back. As a result, theyll be quiet. Small talk is about th
15、rowing out subjects in the hope that one or more of them can be turned into a common point of interest.The listening involved with small talk is not in-depth. The purpose is about listening lightly so you can figure out the right topics to spend some time on. Introverts tend to be great listeners, b
16、ut they use active listening rather than light listening. This makes them wonderful friends, but can also make it difficult for new people to understand why theyre so quiet.1、How do introverts respond to a chat?AThey try to avoid it.BThey get excited about it.CThey give it their full attention.DThey

27、econd try, and he backed out, shifted gears, and moved slowly down the alley under hazy sun.

28、e 20.Turning into the sun, he began the long, winding drive through the Cascades. He liked this country and felt unpressed stopping now and then to make notes about interesting possibilities for future expeditions or to shoot what he called “memory snapshots.” The purpose of these causal photographs
29、 was to remind him of places he might want to visit again and approach more seriously. In later afternoon he turned north at Spokane, picking up U.S. Route 2, which would take him halfway across the northern United States to Duluth, Minnesota.He wished for the thousandth time in his life that he had
30、 a dog, a golden retriever, maybe ,for travels like this and to keep him company at home. But he was frequently away; overseas much of the time and it would not be fair to the animal. Still, he thought about it anyway. In a few years he would be getting too old for the hard fieldwork. “I must get a
31、dog then.” He said to himself.Drives like this always put him into a sentimental mood. The dog was part of it. Robert Kincaid was alone as its possible to bean only child, parents both dead, distant relatives who had lost track of him and he of them, no close friends.He thought about Marian. She had
32、 left him nine years ago after five years of marriage. He was fifty-two now, that would make her just under forty. Marian had dreams of becoming a musician, a folksinger. She knew all of the Weavers songs and sang them pretty well in the coffeehouse of Seattle. When he was home in the old days, he d
33、rove her to the shows and sat in the audience while she sang.His long absencestwo or three months sometimeswere hard on the marriage. He knew that.

A study suggests that some people can overcome them, said Jia Wei Zhang, a psychology graduate at the University of Calif
40、ornia. But this isnt the case for everyone, he said.The researchers wondered why some people report feeling improvement from regrets but others dont. Does it lie in how people approach their regrets?In the study, the researchers focused on self-compassion (自我同情) as a potential factor in why some peo
41、ple have an easier lime leaving their regrets behind them.400 people attended an experiment. First, they were asked to write about their biggest regret. Half wrote something they did but wish they hadnt done; the other half wrote something they didnt do but wish they had. Then, the participants were
42、 randomly assigned to one of three groups: self compassion, self-esteem and a control group. The self-esteem group was asked to respond by “talking to yourself about this regret from the aspect of confirming your positive qualities”.The control group was asked to write about their favorite hobby rat
43、her than their regret. Then, they were asked about their feelings of forgiveness, acceptance and personal improvement following the exercise.They found that the self-compassion group reported greater feelings of acceptance, forgiveness and personal improvement, compared with the control group and th
44、e self esteem group. In other words, focusing on your best qualities is not what helps you feel better about a regret. Rather, being compassionate toward yourself is what may make a difference, the researchers found.Its possible that people who practice self-compassion are able to confront their reg
45、rets and see what went wrong, so they can make a better choice in the future, Zhang told Live Science. Self-compassion pushes people to accept their regret instead of running away from it.The researchers used an example of this from a previous study on breast cancer patients who were asked to try th
46、inking about their treatment in a positive light before it began. The women who did so reported greater feelings of personal growth later on.1、What does the underlined word “confront” in Paragraph 7 mean?AHandle BForget.CIgnore DShow.2、What were the students in the self-esteem group asked to do?AThi
47、nk of a way out. BWrite about their regrets.CRecord their favorite hobbies. DTreat their regrets in positive ways.3、Why were the participants asked about their good qualities?ATo cover up their regrets.BTo see if they have weaknesses.CTo see if they have self compassion.DTo help them feel better about their regret
