【题目】Making a Good First Impression
It's important to make a good first impression with people. Whether they're a customer or a potential friend, you want them to think highly of you. If they don't, you're not likely to make much progress moving forward. 【1】 Before you've even opened your mouth, people have already formed an opinion of you based on your body language. With that in mind, it's a good idea to change how you present yourself to ensure you're not giving off a bad atmosphere.
It's all in the face.
Any honest and fair person is going to be looking at your face when you're talking to them. Of course, that means whatever is going on up there will be picked apart more than anything else you do. 【2】 In the right circumstances, it will express warmth and show you to be welcoming, something that's unbelievably important for the first impression. Moreover, make sure to keep eye contact as often as possible It shows that you're focusing on them, especially when they're talking.
【3】
So many of us close our arms without thinking about it,but that's one of the biggest no-nos when it comes to first impressions. Standing there with your arms folded is going to set you apart from the crowd for all the wrong reasons. 【4】 This will drive people away from you very quickly and make a poor first impression.
Show your interest.
【5】 The wrong movements or positions can signal that you don't care what the other person has to say. Fortunately, there are non-verbal cues (暗示)you can make which will show your interest without going overboard. These include things like leaning forward and giving purposeful nods. Small gestures like this show that you're taking part in the conversation and not invested (投入的)in something happening over their shoulder.
A.Open up your body.
B.Stand close to others in conversation.
C.Show your interest when others are talking.
D.However, there's more to the first impression than what you say.

【解析】
这是一篇说明。文章作者讲述了几个取得好的第一印象的方法。
【1】
划线前句提到“如果人们没有对你高度评价则你就不可能取得很大进展”D选项“然而,第一印象比你说的话更重要”和上句构成“转折”同时和点出下句“你还没开口说话,人们就已经根据你的肢体语言对你形成了看法”告诉我们第一印象是何时产生的。所以D项切题。故选D项。
【2】
根据划线后句“在适当的情况下,它会表达热情,显示出你很受欢迎,这对于第一印象来说是非常重要的”可知句中的“它”指代G项“确保你尽可能多地微笑,如果在这种情况下可以接受的话”中的笑容。因此G项既和后句构成递进关系也符合本段的标题“都在脸上”。所以G项切题,故选G项。
【3】
根据第三段的内容“我们很多人都会不假思索地紧闭双臂,但这是第一印象的最大禁忌之一。交叉双臂站在那里会让你从人群中分离出来。这会给人留下你很无聊,不想待在那里的印象。这会让人很快远离你,给人留下不好的第一印象”可知,这段在告诉我们要放开自己不要太过拘谨。故A项“打开你的肢体”可以统领以下整段。A项切题。故选A项。
【4】
根据前句提到“交叉双臂站在那里会让你从人群中分离出来”可知,F项“这会给人一种你很无聊,不想待在那里的印象”中的It指代前句提及的“交叉双臂站在那里”。同时F项的内容和下句“这会让人们很快远离你,给人留下不好的第一印象”构成因果关系。所以F项切题。故选F项。
【5】
根据划线后句“错误的动作或位置可以表明你不在乎别人说什么”可知,肢体语言可以暗示你对某人兴趣与否。E项“肢体语言表明你是否对某人感兴趣”符合下句的逻辑。所以E项切题。故选E项。
