选项 A、Worrisome
B、Exciting
C、Fearful
D、Terrible
答案A
解析 词汇辨析题。本句是对上文的进一步解释说明，因为这些害羞者过于关注自己的表现和行为，因此会造成一种焦虑情绪。worrisome意为"焦虑的"，这里的worrisome thoughts与前一句中的anxious属于语义场同现，符合上下文语义逻辑关系。exciting意为"令人激动的，令人兴奋的"，根据常识可知，对自己的外表和行为过分关注只会让人焦虑，不会产生令人激动的情绪；fearful和terrible都有"可怕的"之意，fearful表示在面临危险时，丧失了勇气，含有沉重的痛苦情感；terrible强调令人难以忍受的可怕，本句中没有使用fearful和terrible这两个词的语境。
