问题     Psychology is the study of the mind and mental activities. For example, psychologists are interested in why some things make you sad, but others make you happy. They want to know why some people are shy, but others are quite talkative. They also want to know why people do the things that they do. They test intelligence.
    Psychologists deal with the minds and behavior of people. Your mind consists of all your feelings , thoughts, and ideas. It is the result of one part of the brain called the cerebrum. Your behavior is the way you act or conduct yourself. Examples of behavior include shouting, crying, laughing, and sleeping.
    Several people have been instrumental in the field of psychology. Wilhelm Width set up the first psychological laboratory in Leipzig, Germany, in 1879. Ivan Pavlov, a Russian, is noted for his experiments with dogs in which he studied their reflexes and reactions. Around 1900, Sigmund Freud stated his theory that people try to hold back any memories or thoughts that they believed were not good.
    Psychologists should not be confused with psychiatrists. Psychiatrists deal only with mental illness. They are medical doctors who treat people.
The sentence " Some people are shy. " means______.
选项 A、they are modest
B、they are quiet
C、they never say a word
D、they are ashamed
答案B
解析 第一段第三句说到“They want to know why some people are shy，but others are quite talkative．”两个分句用“but”连接，可推断这里的“shy”与“talkative”是相对的，“talkative”意为“喜欢说话的，健谈的”。“quiet”意为“安静的”。
