问题     Some people trust their first impressions about a person ’s character because they believe these judgments are generally correct. Other people do not judge a person’s character quickly because they believe first impressions are often wrong.
    Compare these two attitudes.
    Which attitude do you agree with?
选项
答案     When we first meet someone, we know nothing about his or her character. However, we often make some assumptions based on the impression that the person makes. Can these first impressions be trusted? Some people believe that our initial judgment of a person is usually correct, while others think it is often wrong, there are arguments to support both positions.
    People who trust their first impressions believe that a person’s appearance can be a good indication of not only his character, but also how he views himself and the people around him. It is true that we often send messages about our feelings without being aware of it. Body lan-guage is a good example of this. A person’s posture, gestures and facial expression can tell us a lot about what he is thinking and feeling. Furthermore, dress and grooming can indi-cate whether someone cares enough about us to make a good impression.
    On the other hand, first impressions can sometimes be misleading. People may be nervous around others they don’t know well or in an unfamiliar situation. This may cause them to act in ways that do not reflect their true character. Likewise, some people may give a false impression because they are trying too hard to impress. They may be consciously or unconsciously fooling the other person. In addition, a new acquaintance might simply be in a bad mood or not at his best for other reasons.
    Considering the arguments above, I believe that it is better not to judge a person’s character too quickly. First impressions are, at best, an indication of how a person is feeling at the moment, and may not indicate his or her true character. However, due to the importance that many people do place on first impressions, we should be aware of the impression that we make on others. To sum up, I think we should not judge people according to first impressions, but we should take care to make a good impression ourselves.
