Today we're going to talk about shyness anddiscuss recent research on ways to help children learn to interact socially.

Many people consider themselves shy. Infact, forty percent of people who took part in our survey said they were shy--- that's two out of every five people. And there are studies to indicate thatthe tendency toward shyness may be inherited. But just because certain childrenare timid doesn't mean they are doomed to be shy forever. There are thingsparents, teachers, and the children themselves can do to overcome this tendency--- and even to prevent it.

One researcher found that if parents gentlypush their shy children to try new things, they can help these children becomeless afraid and less inhibited. Another way to help shy children is to trainthem in social skills. For example, there are special training groups wherechildren are taught things like looking at other children while talking tothem, talking about other people's interests, and even smiling.

These groups have been very successful atgiving shy children a place to feel safe and accepted, and at building up theirself-esteem.

【参考译文】

今天我们要谈论羞怯和讨论最近的研究方法来帮助孩子学习社会互动。
许多人认为自己害羞。事实上，40％的人谁参加了我们调查的一部分说，他们害羞---这是每五个人中的两个。有研究表明，向害羞的倾向可以继承。但是，仅仅因为某些孩子胆小并不意味着他们是注定要永远是害羞。有事情家长，教师，和孩子们自己可以做，以克服这种倾向---甚至阻止它。
一位研究人员发现，如果父母轻轻推害羞的孩子尝试新事物，他们可以帮助这些孩子变得那么害怕和减少抑制。另一种方式来帮助害羞的孩子，是他们在社交技巧训练。例如，有儿童教授的事情，如寻找其他的孩子，而他们谈话，谈论其他人的利益，甚至面带微笑的群体的特殊培训。
