24、If you want to make a great first impression, you know there are basic steps you can take: smile, make eye contact, and listen more than you talk. Anyone can do those things.
But what you might not know is that if you think other people are going to like you, they usually will.
As research shows, when you think other people will like you, you act more naturally and kindly—which then makes people like you more since we tend to like warm, friendly people. So how can you persuade(说服) yourself that people will like you? Positive self-talk (“They’re going to love me!”) isn’t enough.
Firstly, give real praise. Everyone loves to be praised, especially since no one gets enough praise. Show interest by asking questions. But go past “What do you do?”Ask what it’s like to do what the person does. Ask what’s hard about it. Ask what the person loves about it. You’ll soon find things to praise.
Secondly, focus on letting people talk about themselves. Research shows about 40 percent of everyday speech is spent telling other people what we think or feel. In fact, by helping people talk about themselves, it is seen as you’re a great conversationalist even when you actually say very little. And in the process, you also make other people feel better about themselves, which makes them like you.
Thirdly, change one word. Think about the difference in these statements:(A) I had to go to a meeting.(B) I got to meet with some great people. Keep in mind choosing the right words also affects how you feel. Don’t say, “I have to go to the gym.” Say, “I want to go to the gym.”
At last, show a little vulnerability(示弱). Great teams are often led by people willing to admit weaknesses and failings. Great friends are also willing to be vulnerable. Want to make a great first impression? Don’t try to impress. Instead, be humble(谦虚).
【1】How many methods are advised to make a great first impression?
A.One.
B.Two.
C.Three.
D.Four.
【2】What does the underlined word “it” refer to?
A.When others say very little.
B.Tell other people what we think.
C.You’re a great conversationalist.
D.Help people talk about themselves.
【3】Match the ways with the examples.
① Change one word a. Be willing to admit weaknesses and failings.
②Give a real praise b. Use “I want to go...” instead of “I have to go...”
③Show a little vulnerability c. Make other people feel better about themselves.
④ Let people talk about themselves d. Ask what the person loves to find things to praise.
A.①-a ②-b ③ -c ④ -d
B.①-b ② -d ③ -c ④ -a
C.①-a ②-d ③-c ④-b
D.①-b ②-d ③ -a ④-c
【4】What’s the main idea of the passage?
A.Where to make friends easily?
B.The result of making others like you.
C.How to make others like to talk with you?
D.The reasons to make a great first impression.
25、任务型阅读:
请认真阅读下列短文,并根据所读内容在文章后面的图表里填入最恰当的单词。
Next to e-mail, the most popular activity on the net is chatting. And if you ask someone what kind of things they do most on the Internet, chances are they will answer that they like to chat. This seems especially true of the younger generation.
Chatting is like any other social interaction. We all know that if we go into a group of people at a party or at school… and start screaming or start asking everyone their age before we even say hello, we aren’t going to make many friends. Chat rooms are different. Below are some tips that will make your chat experience friendly and fun!
Walking into a room and demanding age or sex is the most common mistake a new chatter makes. Most regular chatters will ignore the question and you. In a community such as Youth Tech you will usually find people of all ages and backgrounds. That is the fantastic thing about online chatting. Don’t limit yourself. Talk to everyone in the room equally. You will soon know who shares your interests and who doesn’t. If you prefer a one-on-one type of online friendship, then maybe you’d better look for a pal.
Shy? Lots of people feel shy when they enter a chat room where everyone seems to know everyone else except him. It’s really easy to feel left out. The best way to lose that feeling is to make yourself feel that you are not a stranger. If you enter the room and say “Hello, everyone! My name〈nickname here〉and I’m new.” You will find that there are normally at least a couple of extra friendly people that will be happy to help you become a part of it all.
Basically the best way to have a good chat experience is to be yourself and friendly. Try to join in the conversations going on and don’t be afraid to ask for help. Do remember, however, not everyone is going to be nice and friendly. The same as at school, there are also going to be a few people that are rude and just make you feel rotten. The best thing to do is just ignore them. Arguing with them will just make it worse. Show that you are better than they are by just refusing to let them get to you.
