It takes less than six seconds to leave a first impression. It is said that we ought not judge a book by its cover, but come on, isn’t it the color, the design, the layout, and the title that draw us to pick up a book we’ve never heard of before? Notice what your assumptions are about a person when you are first introduced to her or him.
Something that most of us don’t take notice of is how we stand or walk. Let’s say you are going for a job interview. Within seconds you have already said a lot about yourself by the way you walk. The majority of us walk around everyday without paying any attention to what we are saying even though we are not uttering a word. There is a lot that can be said about body language from the clothes you wear to the gestures you make.
I took notice of this topic recently as I recalled something about changing my posture to improve my level of confidence. I was about to venture on a new project, which would take me out of my comfort zone. My gremlins (小精靈) were having a field day with me uttering all kinds of reasons why I couldn’t do a good job with this new opportunity. I tucked in my tummy (收縮肚子) , put my shoulders back , held my head high , and took a walk. Soon thereafter, I felt so much better. I approached the project with new possibility. Wow, what a difference ! Try it !
The ability to capture your audience when you walk into a room is sure to start you off on the right foot when going on an interview. Non-verbal signals have five times the impact of verbal (言語(yǔ)的)signals. So you can count on losing your audience when you walk in with head down dragging your feet regardless how much you try to change it.
【小題1】In the first paragraph the author intends to tell us         .

A.we shouldn’t judge a book by its cover
B.a(chǎn) person’s appearance can be misread
C.the first impression really means a lot
D.we should focus more on a person’s qualities
【小題2】The author approached his project with new possibility after        .
A.his gremlins stopped talking
B.he got rid of all his negative thoughts
C.he walked out of his comfort zone
D.he changed his posture to improve his confidence
【小題3】According to the author , when we go for a job interview , we       .
A.shouldn’t say a lot about ourselves
B.shouldn’t walk with our head high up
C.should pay enough attention to our body language and gesture
D.should only pay attention to the way we walk within the first few seconds
【小題4】The author probably believes that        .
A.non-verbal signals are more important than verbal signals
B.non-verbal signals are not so easy to catch
C.we mainly rely on verbal signals during an interview
D.we shouldn’t pay too much attention to our non-verbal signals
【小題5】What is mainly talked about in the passage?
A.How to prepare for a job interview
B.The way we walk says a lot about us.
C.How to read a person from the way he walks.
D.How complicated body language is.

科目:高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源:2010年廣東省佛山市普通高中高一上學(xué)期教學(xué)質(zhì)量檢測(cè)英語(yǔ)卷 題型:閱讀理解

One of the most exciting and attractive fields of work today is the fashion industry. Some of the most well-known people in this industry are the fashion designers with unbelievable financial (金融的) Kingdoms. But most of the clothes that you wear have been designed by people that the world has never heard of. Although these unknown fashion designers will never make a very large amount of money as their famous workmates, most still would not think of changing their careers. They are doing what they love.
If you spend hours looking through fashion magazines and like making your own clothes, a career as a fashion designer might be right for you. You do not have to go to design school to become a fashion designer, but many people who want a career in this field do. One of the most famous places to study is the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York City. It is located in the heart of the “garment” district on Eighth Avenue, also known as Fashion Avenue.
Becoming a fashion designer is not just a matter of classroom education. Students know that they cannot just leave school and start designing on their own. Many think that they need at least four years’ experience working for someone else after they graduate. The best schools encourage students to work closely with the fashion industry while they are still studying.
You need ambition (抱負(fù)) and hard work to get a career in fashion. Students often work 12 hours a day. They are encouraged to have realistic ambitions and not to expect success overnight, if ever. Success means finding a job in the fashion industry and more years of hard work.
【小題1】What can we learn from the first paragraph?

A.Some famous fashion designers can make a lot of money.
B.Most of the clothes are designed by famous designers.
C.Most fashion designers don’t like their own jobs.
D.Unknown fashion designers can earn a large amount of money.
【小題2】In order to have a career in fashion design, one had better ___________.
A.look through magazines
B.go to New York City
C.study in a design school
D.graduate from high school
【小題3】The following can lead to the success of a fashion designer EXCEPT___________.
A.working with the fashion industry B.realistic ambitions
C.hard workD.expectation of success overnight
【小題4】Which of the following old sayings shows the writer’s opinion about learning fashion design?
A.Better late than never.
B.Experience is the best teacher.
C.Well begun is half done.
D.Seeing is believing.
【小題5】What can be inferred from the passage?
A.To be a fashion designer, design school education is a must.
B.All famous design schools are located in New York City.
C.Design school students had better do some practice while studying.
D.All students have to work with famous designers first.

科目:高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源:2013-2014學(xué)年安微省池州市高三上學(xué)期第三次月考英語(yǔ)試卷(解析版) 題型:閱讀理解

Have you ever considered all the English expressions that include words about clothes? Let’s see if I can name a few proverbs “off the cuff” since I haven’t prepared for it.

English expressions with “pants”

People wear pants to cover the lower part of their bodies. We sometimes say that people who are restless or nervous have “ants in their pants.” They might also “fly by the seat of their pants” -- they use their natural sense to do something instead of their learned knowledge. Sometimes, people may “get caught with their pants down” -- they are found doing something they should not be doing. And, in every family, one person takes control. Sometimes a wife tells her husband what to do. Then we say “she wears the pants in the family.”

When people want to say something about money

Pants usually have pockets to hold things. Money that is likely to be spent quickly can “burn a hole in your pocket.” Sometimes you need a belt to hold up your pants. If you have less money than usual, you may have to “tighten your belt” -- you may have to live on less money and spend your money carefully. But once you have succeeded in budgeting your money, you will have that skill “under your belt.”

    I always praise people who can save their money and not spend too much. I really “take my hat off to them.” Yet, when it comes to my own money, I spend it “at the drop of a hat” — immediately, without waiting. And sadly, you cannot “pull money out of a hat” —you cannot get money by inventing or imagining it.

English expressions with “shoes”

Boots are a heavy or strong kind of shoes. People who are “too big for their boots” think they are more important than they really are. I dislike such people. I really do. You can bet your boots on that!

    Yet, truly important people are hard to replace. Rarely can you “fill their shoes” -- or replace them with someone equally effective.

English expressions with “shirt”

My father is an important person. He runs a big company. He wears a suit and tie and a shirt with sleeves that cover his arms. Some people who do not know him well think he is too firm and severe. They think he is a real “stuffed shirt.” But I know that my father “wears his heart on his sleeve” —he shows his feelings openly. And, he knows how to “keep his shirt on”—he stays calm and never gets angry or too excited.    

1.What is this passage mainly about? 

A. Which words can be used to describe my father.

B. Why English expressions include words about clothes.

C. What people mean when they use some proverbs.

D. How to say English correctly and properly.

2.Which of the following proverbs are not related to money?

A. tighten one’s belt                    B. take one’s hat off to them

C. burn a hole in one’s pocket            D. get caught with their pants down

3.Tim often considers himself the most important person in the world, which is far from the truth .We may say ______.

A. he “wears his heart on his sleeve ”.      B. he “bet his boots on that ”.

C. he is “too big for their boots”.          D. he “ fill their shoes”.

4.If you want to praise somebody for his calmness when facing danger, you may say______.

A. “Amazing! How can you keep your shirt on at that time!”

B. “You really fill your shoes”

C. “Awesome ! You wear your heart on your sleeve!”

D. “Cool! You are truly a stuffed shirt”.

科目:高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源:2014屆遼寧省五校協(xié)作高三摸底英語(yǔ)卷(解析版) 題型:閱讀理解

It's not about how much money you make, and it's not about who your daddy is. We're talking about being attractive in general, whether it's on a job interview or just gaining the respect of your colleagues . . .

Ask lots of questions

If you come across as a know-it-all (even if you really do know it all!), it really pushes people away. Rather, asking lots and lots of questions makes people feel like you care, you can be trusted.

Great body language

Your body language says a lot about you - it says whether you have confidence, or simply if you really care. Talking physically, it is one of the most important physical characteristics you need!

Stay busy

Always have something to do. Have you ever seen someone just sitting around, doing nothing? How unattractive. Always be busy with something, even if for some reason you have to make something up.

Show your pearly whites (or just smile)

Smile more, no matter how ugly your teeth are. I'm not kidding about this one. It's not all about the teeth. If you are smiling genuinely, you can draw everyone for 100 meters around to you.

Wear what fits

Wear clothing that fits you. For women, wearing tight pants or shirts is not attractive. Things that just fit you and your shape are the best but not tight. Wear things that fit you nicely, please . . . And for goodness sake, both sexes, stay away from logos and printed shirts! Most people you may ask do not find this attractive. Stop being some company's billboard(廣告牌).

Be interested in other man

Be interested in the other person. Don't talk about. If you are truly interested in the person, it will come across. And if you want to talk about yourself, you'll find that putting the other person first actually opens him up to return the favor and ask you questions. See how fun this is?

1.It is your ________ that makes you attractive.

A. your family background

B. fashionable tight clothes

C. your appearance and your wealth

D. proper body language and behavior

2.According to the author, if you ________, you can be trusted.

A. always smile and show your pearly teeth

B. keep asking lots of questions

C. are interested in other people’s personal affairs

D. always wear clothes that fit you

3.The purpose of staying busy is to ________.

A. gain praises from your boss and colleagues

B. look attractive among people

C. show that you are interested in your job

D. get promoted in your company

4.If you are going to a job interview, which of the following is a proper behavior?

A. Wearing a shirt with printed logos

B. Keeping talking about your own experiences and talents

C. Staying still, not making any body language

D. Smiling truly toward the people you will meet
