receive与accept的辨析：
两个词都作动词用，都表示“接受，收到”之意，但在用法上有所不同。
receive表示的行为与主观意愿没有关系，着重于行为本身，不涉及收到者是否同意。动作本身有一定的被动性。accept表示的行为由主语的主观意志所决定，强调经过主语的考虑而接受。动作本身是主动的。例如：
I
received
his
invitation
to
the
party
yesterday,
but
I
refused
to
accept
it.
昨天我收到了他的晚会请柬，但我拒绝接收。

三、阅读理解
Are
you
shy?
If
you
are,
you
are
not
alone.
In
fact,
close
to
50
percent
of
people
are
shy.
Almost
80
percent
of
people
feel
shy
at
some
point
in
their
lives.
These
days,
shyness
is
becoming
more
and
more
common.
Now,
scientists
are
trying
to
understand
shyness.
They
have
some
interesting
ideas
about
why
people
are
shy.
Is
it
possible
to
be
born
shy?
Many
scientists
say
yes.
They
say
15
to
20
percent
of
babies
behave
shyly.
These
babies
are
a
little
quieter
and
more
watchful
than
other
babies.
Interestingly,
these
shy
babies
usually
have
shy
parents.
As
a
result,
scientists
think
that
some
shyness
is
genetic.
Family
size
might
cause
people
to
be
shy
as
well.
Scientists
at
Harvard
University
studied
shy
children.
They
found
that
66
percent
of
them
had
older
brothers
and
sisters.
As
a
result,
they
became
shy.
At
the
same
time,
children
with
no
brothers
and
sisters
may
be
shy
as
well.
Growing
up
alone,
they
often
play
by
themselves.
They
are
not
able
to
learn
the
same
social
skills
as
children
from
big
families.
You
may
also
be
shy
because
of
where
you
were
born.
When
scientists
studied
shyness
in
different
countries.
They
found
surprising
differences.
In
Japan,
most
people
said
they
were
shy.
But
in
Israel,
only
one
of
three
people
said
so.
What
explains
the
difference?
One
scientist
says
the
Japanese
and
Israelis
have
different
opinions
of
failure.
In
Japan,
when
people
do
not
succeed,
they
feel
bad
about
themselves.
They
blame（责备）themselves
for
their
failure.
In
Israel,
the
opposite
is
true.
Israelis
often
blame
failure
on
outside
reasons,
such
as
family,
teachers,
friends,
or
bad
luck.
In
Israel,
freedom
of
opinion
and
risk
taking
are
strongly
supported.
This
may
be
why
Israelis
worry
less
about
failure
and
are
less
shy.
For
shy
people,
it
can
be
difficult
to
make
friends,
speak
in
class,
and
even
get
a
good
job.
But
scientists
say
you
can
get
over
your
shyness.
They
suggest
trying
new
things
and
practicing
conversation.
And
don’t
forget
—
if
you
are
shy,
you
are
not
the
only
one.
