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(几乎不) 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(鼓励) yourself
Write down a list of things you did during the day to see how many things you have done well. Did you finish your homework? Did you tell a joke that made everybody laugh? Give yourself praise(奖励) for the good things you've done.
Get rid of(消除) fear
Fear(畏惧) comes along with failure. 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.

Cats are the most popular pets among Americans. So it is not surprising there are many expressions about cats. Do you know any of them? Now let me introduce some to you.
Some cats like to catch small birds, like canaries. If someone looks very proud or satisfied(满意) with himself, we say he looks like the cat that ate the canary. Sometimes, a cat likes to play with a small animal it catches. So if you play cat and mouse with someone, you change between different kinds of behavior(行为，举止) when dealing with another person. For example, a child might offer something sweet to her little brother, and then take it away when he reaches for it.
A cat will often catch a small animal and present(呈现) it to its owner. The saying that looks like something the cat dragged in describes something in bad condition(状况，情形).
A fat cat is a person with a lot of money.
