Think of the word that best fits each space

Ответ:

Shyness is a problem that is common (0) to many people. In (16) fact , according to Mr Zimbardo, a distinguished psychologist at Stanford University, eight (17) out of ten people are reported to (18) have been shy at some (19) time in their lives. Most people (20) who have this condition, suffer feelings of discomfort and anxiety at the (21) thought of meeting others, especially at social gatherings (22) like parties. Keeping away from such situations is not really a solution, of course, and if a shy person can manage to overcome their fears they (23) will gain a feeling of self-satisfaction as (24) well as improving their social life. However, if the case of shyness is severe, when important occasions are missed or a person’s social, educational or professional life is affected, (25) then the label “shyness” is inappropriate. (26) At this stage, it is termed “social phobia”. Those suffering (27) from this condition are very often bright, talented and sensitive people. But feelings of social isolation, resulting (28) in loneliness, can lead to additional problems (29) such as alcohol abuse or addiction to medication. Fortunately, a number of treatments are available and come in the form of individual (30) or group therapy and training. Therefore, a person who has social phobia has an excellent chance of recovery.

A TALENT FOR LYING


Although we are all natural born liars, most of us seem to take it
for granted that lying (1) _______________________ bad. However, psychologists
argue that lying is just (2) _______________________ important as any other
social skill we possess. We learn (3)_______________________ art of
deception very early in life; by the age of five, we have not only become
quite efficient at lying, but we have also learnt how to read people’s
reactions and act accordingly. (4)_______________________ example, if
someone is avoiding direct eye contact with us, this makes us think that
we’re being lied to so we might lie, too. A person’s smile is also (5) _______________________
giveaway. A genuine smile makes the skin near the eyes crease, whereas a
«put on» smile doesn’t have the (6)_______________________ effect
on the facial features (7)_______________________ a real one. Even though
both women and men know how to watch (8)_______________________ for clues
that somebody is lying, it is a fact that women are
(9)_______________________ more skilful liars (10)________________________men.
Despite this, women are also more affected by other people’s feelings, so
they have more sympathy (11)_______________________ them. As a result,
women tend to be (12)_______________________ willing to have an honest
conversation.
