If you think you’re too shy and want to be a little bit brave, try the following:
You can make it. Tell people you’re shy. There’s no need to hide it. When they get to know you’re a shy kid, they’ll understand you better. This also helps you feel more relaxed in talks.
Try to smile more. When you smile, people think you’re friendly and easy to talk to. Remember that other people have feelings too and most people will stay away from an angry-looking face.
Learn to be a good talker. If you find it hard to start talks, say something nice about people around you. Think about how great you feel when someone says something nice to you. Doesn’t it make you want to keep talking to that person?
Get your attention elsewhere（在别处）. Think more about ways to enjoy parties or games. Don’t waste time worrying about your look or whether people like you or not.
Take one small step at a time. Each time when you say “Hi” or smile at someone, say to yourself “You did it”. Keep trying and one day you’ll never feel shy when you talk about yourself.

解析

本文讲的是摆脱害羞勇敢一点的方法。
1. B 文章列出了五点，在每段的第一句：You can make it；Try to smile more；Learn to be a good talker；Get your attention elsewhere；Take one small step at a time，故选B。
2. B 首先匀们定位到Learn to be a good talker这一段，从后面If you find it hard to start talks, say something nice about people around you可知B正确。
3. A 细节题，对照全文一个个看，A对。B you will get a bad feeling不对，应是good feeling;C答案应是Think more about ways to enjoy parties or games，而不是less;D答案应是when you talk about yourself而非people talk to you,故选A。
4. D 主旨题的考查，文章很明显讲的都是如何不再害羞的方法，说了五个方法，故选D。
