Ways to make a great first impression
You’ve heard it a million times already, but it really does take but a few seconds to make that all-important first impression(印象). 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. As a general rule, plan to arrive about 30 minutes early. 3..
● 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 a good conversation
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 who they can relate to(产生共鸣).
A. It’s better to be hanging around the place than be stuck in traffic
B. Repeat the name and use it later in conversation
C. Use proper body language
D. Have a proper handshake
E. However, don’t have your left hand in your pocket because this appears impolite
F. You’ll be in serious trouble if you leave a bad impression on them
G. It could be a similar taste in clothes or a common hobby
Internet use appears to cause a decline in psychological well-being(安康), according to research at Carnegie Mellon University.
Even people who spent just a few hours a week on the Internet experienced more depression and loneliness than those who logged on less frequently, the two-year study showed. And it wasn’t that people who were already feeling bad spent more time on the Internet, but that using the Net actually appeared to cause the bad feeling.
Researchers are puzzling over the results, which were completely contrary to their expectations. They expected that the net would prove socially healthier than television, since the Net allows users to choose their information and to communicate with others.
The fact that Internet use reduces time available for family and friends may account for the drop in well-being, researchers suggested. Faceless, bodiless “virtual”(虚拟的)communication may be less psychologically satisfying than actual conversation, and the relationship formed through it may be shallower. Another possibility is that exposure to the wider world via the Net makes users less satisfied with their lives.
“But it’s important to remember this is not about the technology per se; it’s about how it is used,” says psychologist Christine Riley of Intel, one of the study’s sponsors. “It really points to the need for considering social effects in terms of how you design applications and services for technology.”
