Ways to make a great first impression
You’ve heard it a million times already, but it really does take a few seconds to make that all-important first impression. Here are some easy ways for you to impress your classmates or teachers.
● 1.
Before you shake hands with somebody, make sure that your hands are clean. The handshake should not be too strong or weak. Most people use their right hands, unless they have a reason to use the left. 2..
● Be on time
When meeting someone for the first time, arriving on time is as important as breathing. You may have an excuse, but that will leave the person who hardly knows you with a bad impression. 3. It’s better to be hanging around the place than be stuck in traffic.
● Introduce yourself and ask for names
Make sure you properly introduce yourself. Ask for their names in a polite way. 4. This will increase the chances of their remembering your name in the future. Always remember to stand up when greeting someone and be sure to introduce them to anyone you’re with.
● Make good conversations
To get the most out of your discussion, try to find something common between the two of you. 5. A person will feel more comfortable with someone they can relate to.
A. Use body language
B. Have a proper handshake
C. Repeat the names and use them later in conversation.
D. It could be a similar taste in clothes or a common hobby.
E. As a general rule, plan to arrive about 30 minutes early.
F. You’ll be in serious trouble if you leave them with a bad impression.
G. However, don’t have your left hand in your pocket because this appears impolite.
Do you know why people yawn (打哈欠)? The most obvious answer is that we yawn because we are tired. But why does being tired make us yawn? How does yawning help us? The truth is that we don’t know the answers to these questions. Scientists have different theories about why we yawn, but nobody has been able to prove them.
The first one is the “oxygen theory”. In the past, one of the more popular theories was that we yawn in order to take more oxygen. When we yawn we breathe more deeply. According to this theory, our brains make us yawn because we need more oxygen. However, these days more and more scientists are against the oxygen theory.
The second one is the “brain cooling” theory. According to this theory, we yawn when our brains get too warm. Yawning makes our brains cooler again. When our brains are cooler, we can think more clearly. Yawning can help keep us alert (警觉). This theory hasn’t been proven yet, but many scientists think that it will be in the future.
Here are a few other interesting facts about yawning. First, yawning is contagious (可传染的). If you see another person yawn, then you will be more likely to yawn, too. Second, we yawn even before we are born. Studies have shown that babies yawn while they’re still in their mother’s stomach. They start to yawn after 24 weeks. Finally, we are more likely to yawn when we’re bored. Why is yawning contagious? Why do we yawn when we’re bored or tired? The truth is that we don’t have any answers to these questions, either.
