Many people think successful people are often talkative and outgoing. They think quiet people are much less confident or less intelligent. When parents find their children talking     1     than other children, they may become worried and try their best to make their children outgoing.

In fact, it’s not necessary to try to make quiet people outgoing. Just let them be     2    . It is more possible for quiet people to become successful because of their own advantages.

Quiet people listen more than they talk,     3     they learn a lot. They don’t show their own ideas often. They usually say something     4     or interesting when they need to speak.

Quiet people can get trust     5    . Because of their fewer talks, they     6     as honest and can keep secrets in business or in other social situations.

They can prepare things well. As a saying goes: “Preparedness ensures success and unpreparedness spells     7    .” Careful planning is necessary if a person wants to get     8     results. When it comes to making plans, quiet people often do it very carefully. They think about what they need to do and how to make it better     9     their goals.

They are less possible to be distracted (分神) by other people or things. They can pay attention to a task and finish it faster than those who talk too much. What’s more, quiet people also have the     10     to keep doing something for longer. They seldom get bored or lose interest in what they’re doing.
