• 2．"That's funny!These fellows in the middle of the plate have died，" Dr Alexander Fleming was talking to another doctor in a laboratory in London．He had been studying some germs （细菌）that he was growing on a plate．They were very dangerous germs because they caused different kinds of illnesses that could kill people．Dr Fleming found that a mould（霉菌） had floated in through the window landing on the plate．It had killed some of the germs it had touched．
     "This certainly looks promising，" Fleming said．"We must grow some of this mould to see if it will kill other germs．"
     He named the strange mould "penicillin"．It proved to be a killer of many germs．Fifty mice were given deadly germs and then half of them were injected （注射）with penicillin．The twenty-five untreated mice died，but twenty-four of those that had been treated with penicillin lived．Dr Fleming wrote a report about what he had found out．Hardly anybody took any notice of it．
     In 1938 Dr Howard Florey，an Australian working in London，read Dr Fleming's report and was very interested．He found that penicillin was effective in treating blood poisoning in human beings．
     When World War II broke out，it was not possible to make enough penicillin in England．Dr Florey went to America where he helped to have enormous amounts of this wonderful drug made．It saved the lives of thousands of soldiers，sailors and airmen who would have died from their wounds if the hospitals had not had penicillin．

• 3．Shyness equals losing opportunities，less pleasure and fewer social connections，but there are ways to make it a thing of the past．
     When I was fifteen，I was shy．I remember an attractive girl trying to talk with me．My shyness made me focus on me instead of her．I heard my own voice but not hers and I thought about what I was trying to say instead of what she was trying to say．
     To overcome shyness you need to learn to relax．This gives you the space to practice certain conversational skills．Relaxed socializing（社交）is so pleasurable．To start reducing your own shyness，I want you to absorb the following tips and ideas and start to put them into practice．
     Focus your attention away from yourself．Notice what other people are wearing and make a mental note，listen to their conversation，imagine where they might live，and make a point of remembering names．Not only does this give you more to talk about，it also reduces social anxiety，leaving you feeling calmer．
     Ask people open questions．Many people like to talk about themselves and will find you interesting if you find them interesting．Ask questions that require more than a "yes" or "no" response such as "What do you like about this place？" rather than "Do you like this place？" Once they have answered，you can use add-on（追加）questions connected with the first such as "What other places do you like in this city？" Next you can express your views．This is a great way to get the conversation going．
     Now I love meeting new people and suspect that my current social confidence would be unrecognizable to my fifteen-year-old self．

  A．people will notice our appearance if we focus on their looks
  B．shy people will have no friends unless they change themselves
  C．shy people may suffer a great deal and may be less happy
