38

　　If you are feeling uncomfortable and on edge, this can make the other person ill at ease and that’s a sure way to create the wrong impression. If you are calm and confident, then the other person will feel more at ease. So have a firm foundation for making that first impression a good one.

　　Present yourself appropriately

　　39

　　They say a picture is worth a thousand words, and so the “picture” you first present says much about you to the person you are meeting. Is your appearance saying the right things to help create the right first impression? Appropriate dressing and grooming (仪表) help make a good first impression and also help you feel “the part”, and therefore feel more calm and confident.

　　40

　　A. Be open and confident

　　B. Be yourself, be at ease

　　C. Of course physical appearance matters.

　　D. So it’s worth giving each new encounter your best shot.

　　E. Add them all up and you are well on your way to a good first impression.

　　F. And allow flexibility for possible delays in traffic or taking a wrong turn.

　　G. Much of what you need to do to make a good impression is common sense.

　　Passage 6

　　“As easy as falling off a log(圆木)” is often used to describes a job that does not take much effort.
