Confidence is very important in daily life. It can help you to develop a healthy attitude (态度). A study shows that the people who are more confident are much happier. They can have more chances to make themselves successful. The following is about how to be more confident.

Speak loud   When you are not confident, you can't do well what you want to do. You speak in a voice so low that other people can hardly hear you. Try to speak loud enough so that people can hear you clearly. The high voice can help you become more confident.

Play sports   Physical exercise makes you tired but completely relaxed. A strong body helps you be full of confidence.

Encourage yourself.  To see how many things you have done well, you can write down a list of things you did during the day. Did you finish your homework? Did you tell a joke that made everybody laugh? Give yourself praise for the good things you've done.

Pick up a hobby   If you like singing, sing as much as you can. In some ways, a hobby can make you outstanding. And it will make you happy and confident.

Get rid of (消除) fear. Fear comes along with failure (失败). But it's easy to overcome (克服) if you know that failure is part of your life. Don't hide your head just because you said something stupid last time. Try to start again and believe you can do better.

【解析】自信在我们的日常生活中是很重要的，它可以使人们更快乐，帮助人们成功。如何提高自信心呢？短文里作者给我们提出了一些很好的建议。

1.根据短文第一段中A study shows that the people who are more confident are much happier. They can have more chances to make themselves successful.可知，自信可以帮助人们成功，由原文的successful可知，这里应填名词success，做动词have的宾语。

2.根据文章的结构可知，短文第一段介绍了自信的重要性，从第二段开始，作者告诉我们怎样才能有自信，提了很多建议，这些都是自信的方法，故应填Ways。

3.根据短文中Physical exercise makes you tired but completely relaxed可知，身体锻炼会使你很累，但是却能完全放松。play/do physical exercise是动词短语，做运动，这个短语在句中做主语，故用动名词形式，填Playing或者Doing。

4.根据短文Encourage yourself这一段中To see how many things you have done well, you can write down a list of things you did during the day可知，你可以把你这一天做的事情写下来，write down是固定短语，写下来，这是一个祈使句，故用动词原形。

5.根据短文最后一段中Fear comes along with failure (失败). But it's easy to overcome (克服) if you know that failure is part of your life可知，恐惧会伴随失败而来，但是我们要努力克服这种恐惧。afraid害怕，是形容词，在be动词后面做表语，跟原文的fear同义。

点睛：这篇短文结构清晰，是总分的结构，第一段是文章的中心端，告诉我们自信的重要性，引出下文，如何增强自信，从第二段开始作者提了一些建议。下面的表格是对这篇短文内容的一个提纲概括，我们可以对应原文，从原文找到做题的依据。例如第1小题，根据第一段中我们知道，自信可以帮助人们成功，原文处是…make themselves successful，是形容词successful做宾语补足语。表格中空前是动词have，这里应该用名词做宾语，故填success。再如第4小题，跟原文一样，都是write down写下，直接可以得到答案。
