    Susan Cain was a shy girl. She always had a hard time talking with new people. But when she grew up, she became a reporter.  But Susan thought that her shyness made her a better reporter. "Being shy makes me more believable—people feel more comfortable around me," she said.

    But why are some people shy?

    Scientists once did a study on two-month-old babies. They found that of every five babies, one was very active (活跃).  And one of every five babies was always quiet. These babies might be shy when they grew up.

    People who are outgoing are sometimes more successful. Shy people may feel that they have a disadvantage (不利因素).But shyness can be an advantage.  They are good friends be­cause they listen more than they talk. This can also make them successful.
