选项 A、self-control
B、self-discipline
C、self-esteem
D、self-consciousness
答案C
解析 语义衔接题。本句提到：某种类型的害羞者可能消极，容易受他人影响。根据常识及第四段第三句可知害羞的人通常自信不足，这就会导致心态消极，敏感，受他人影响大。self-esteem意为"自信，自尊"，符合句子语义关系。self-control意为"自控"，自控能力强还是差与心态消极，易受他人影响没有逻辑上的必然联系；self-discipline意为"自律"，同样，自律与否与态度积极还是消极无关联；self-consciousness意为"自觉，自我意识"，本文首段就提到了self-conscious，该部分指出self-conscious就是对自己的外表及行为过分关注。显然害羞的人非常self-conscious，本句中空白处之前是low，如果填入self-conscious则表示害羞的人不太有自我意识，与前面内容矛盾，故排除。
