选项 A、moderately
B、sufficiently
C、excessively
D、exclusively

答案C

解析 词汇辨析题。从句中的分号和that is可以判断出,后面的部分是对前面Shy people are anxious and self-conscious做出的解释。根据常识可以判断害羞的人之所以产生焦虑、难为情的心理是因为他们过分关注自己的外表和行为。excessively意为"过分地",符合该处语义关系。moderately意为"造度地,稳健地",如果这些人对自己的行为和外表适度关注,就不会产生焦虑不安的情绪,因此moderately放在句中与句意不吻合;sufficiently意为"足够地,充分地",表示足量但不多余的意思,不能表达句中"过分关注"的意思;exclusively意为"排他地,独有地",属于绝对词汇,本题句子上下文处没有表示这种排他性的语境,故exclusively也不适用于此处。
