1. First impression is one of the most important things when it comes to making contact with others.
✅ 正确(A. True)

2. If you don't leave a good impression on the other person, he may not want to make deep contact with you.
✅ 正确(A. True)
→ 第一段指出:他人基于外表、举止形成对你的初步判断;第二段补充:第一印象影响职业与社交关系发展。
→ 逻辑推断:负面第一印象会阻碍深入接触。
3. It may just take 3 seconds for the other person to know you at your first meeting.
✅ 正确(A. True)
→ 原文第一段:“It takes just a quick glance, maybe 3 seconds, for someone to understand you when you meet for the first time.”

解析
本题主要考查对文章《Making a Good Impression》内容的理解和细节信息的把握。解题思路是将每个题目与原文进行细致比对,依据原文关键语句来判断题目表述的正确性。
- 对于题目“First impression is one of the most important things when it comes to making contact with others.”,原文第一段首句明确指出“First impression is always the most important thing when you meet a stranger.”,“one of”虽在程度上弱于“the most”,但核心语义一致,且后文也强调了第一印象在职业和社交生活中的重要性,所以该题表述正确,选A。
- 题目“If you don't leave a good impression on the other person, he may not want to make deep contact with you.”,文中第一段表明他人会根据初次见面时你的外表、举止等形成对你的看法,第二段又提到第一印象在职业和社交生活中很重要,由此可合理推断出负面的第一印象会阻碍深入接触,所以该题表述正确,选A。
- 题目“It may just take 3 seconds for the other person to know you at your first meeting.”,原文第一段有“It takes just a quick glance, maybe 3 seconds, for someone to understand you when you meet for the first time.”,与题目表述直接对应,所以该题表述正确,选A。
- 题目“Your appearance, manners and even behaviors can tell what type of person you are.”,原文第一段提到“...based on your appearance, your manners and even your behaviors that tell them what type of person you are...”,与题目描述完全一致,所以该题表述正确,选A。
- 题目“Confidence in oneself isn't important in making a good impression.”,原文第二段明确说“To make a good impression, we have to have deep confidence in ourselves.”,而题目否定了自信的重要性,与原文直接矛盾,所以该题表述错误,选B。
- 题目“Keeping calm and confident will contribute to leaving a good first impression on the other party.”,原文第二段指出“If you are calm and confident, the other person will feel more at ease and this makes a solid foundation of a good first impression.”,说明冷静自信是留下好印象的基础,所以该题表述正确,选A。
- 题目“The writer tells readers not be disappointed even if they are not good-looking because physical appearance is not important at all.”,原文第三段提到“Although physical appearance seems to be more important nowadays, don't get upset if you are not born pretty or handsome.”,作者承认外表现在更重要,只是劝人不必因长得不好看而沮丧,而题目说外表一点都不重要,属于过度解读,所以该题表述错误,选B。
- 题目“According to this passage, you can dress yourself based on your own mood.”,原文第三段明确表示“Dress for occasions, do not dress for your own mood.”,反对按心情着装,所以该题表述错误,选B。
- 题目“When it comes to making the first impression, body language is not as important as spoken language.”,原文第四段说“body language as well as appearance speaks much louder than words.”,强调肢体语言比言语更重要,与题目表述相反,所以该题表述错误,选B。
- 题目“If you talk too much, the other person will feel bored and tired.”,原文第五段提到“Don't talk non - stop as this makes the other person bored.”,只说了会让人觉得无聊,未提及“tired”,“tired”是新增信息,无法从文中推出,所以该题选C。
