阅读下面短文，从文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出一个最佳答案。
“I don’t want to go, Miss Green. I’m so frightened,” Emily told her teacher.
Emily was a very 16 girl. She always sat at the back of the classroom, 17 or taking notes. Every Monday morning, there would be a special show in her class and one student would be 18 to make a speech about his or her dream. Miss Green hoped that Emily could have a try the next week, 19 she refused.
“I know that it seems 20 for you, but it will help you build up your confidence. You just need to trust 21 .” said Miss Green. Emily was lost in thought.
The next day, Emily came to Miss Green’s office. Miss Green was glad that she would take the chance. Miss Green red-penciled her manuscript (手稿) of speech, corrected her 22 , and even helped with her body language. She advised Emily to 23 that she was speaking confidently in front of her class while practicing. 24 a whole week, Emily practiced speaking in front of her imaginary friends and teacher. Behind the locked door of her bedroom, she told them about her 25 .
26 , Monday arrived. When Emily was called upon to give her speech, she 27 and walked to the front of the class without any notes, in a show of confidence. Emily’s successful performance brought everyone a great 28 . The whole class clapped (鼓掌) for a full minute when she completed her speech. Miss Green smiled. She had known that Emily would make it when she 29 took her first step to overcome her fear of speaking in public.
From that day on, Emily’s life changed for the better. At the age of 22, she became a news reader. People who see her on television now will find it hard to 30 that she was once a shy girl who refused to speak up in class. Just as the Chinese saying goes, a thousand-mile journey begins with the first step. If we dare take the first step, it will be much easier for us to make a difference.
16．A．active B．lazy C．polite D．quiet
17．A．laughing B．reading C．singing D．talking
