问题     Psychology (心理学) 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 (大脑). Your behavior is the way you act or conduct yourself. Examples of behavior include shouting, crying, laughing, and sleeping.
    Several people have been instrumental (有重要作用的) in the field of psychology. Wilhelm Wundt 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 repress (压制) any memories or thoughts that they believed were not good.
    Psychologists should not be confused with psychiatrists (精神病学家). Psychiatrists deal only with mental illness. They are medical doctors who treat people.  
The sentence "Some people are shy." (Line 3, Para. 1) 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 细节推断。由线索句Some people are shy.定位到文中第一段第三句。原文中 Some people are shy与others are quite talkative是把性格完全不同的两种人进行对比,后句说其他人特别健谈(talkative),故可推断此句是表明有些人不善于言谈,所以B正确。
