The bold and the bashful (unit 3)

This topic is a really important issue because is part of the behavior of each other,  some people are bold, but others are bashful or shy.
In the classroom, the day we started that unit, some people said that they are shy because they didn't like talking too much or being engage in a lot of things. Others said that they could be both depending of the situation.

Also we listened for main ideas about why do Americans consider themself shy? Some reasons were because they have a competitive culture, they are constantly being evaluated, and by the whole of notion of testing, however.
Many people feel awkwardness in social situations, so they are more likely to be depress. Then people after they know you are shy they make misattributions about you and think that you are stupid.

An excellent explanation about bashful is often feeling uncomfortable with other people and easily embarrassed.
For example: She gave a bashful smile as he complimented her on her work.
In contrast, bold meaning could be showing a willingness to take risks; confident and courageous.
For example: He apologized for being so bold as to speak to the emperor.
