[B] Being cautious when experimenting
[C] Finding a model to follow
[D] Getting the final look absolutely right
[E] Learning to be realistic
[F] Making regular conscious choices
When we meet people for the first time, we often make decisions about them based entirely on how they look.
And, of course it’s something that works both ways, for we too are being judged on our appearance.
When we look good, we feel good, which in turn leads to a more confident and self-assured manner. People then pick up on this confidence and respond positively towards us,
Undoubtedly, it's what's inside that's important, but sometimes
we can send out the wrong signals simply by wearing inappropriate clothing or not spending enough time thinking about how others see us.
41___________
For example, people often make the mistake of trying to look like someone else they’ve seen in a magazine, but this is usually a disaster as we all have our own characteristics.
Stand in front of a fulllength mirror and be honest with yourself about what you see.
There is no need to dwell on your faults—we all have good points and bad points—but think instead about the best way to emphasize the good ones.
42___________
When selecting your clothes each day, think about who you’re likely to meet, where you’re going to be spending most of your time and what tasks you are likely to perform. Clearly,
some outfits will be more appropriate to different sorts of activity
and this will dictate your choice to an extent. However, there’s no need to abandon your individual taste completely. After all,
if you dress to please somebody else’s idea of what looks good, you may end up feeling uncomfortable and not quite yourself.
43___________
But to know your own mind, you have to get to know yourself.
What do you truly feel good in? There are probably a few favourite items that you wear a lot—most people wear 20 per cent of their wardrobe 80 per cent of the time.
Look at these clothes and ask yourself what they have in common.
Are they neat and tidy, loose and flowing? Then look at the things hanging in your wardrobe that you don’t wear and ask yourself why.
Go through a few magazines and catalogues and mark the things that catch your eye. Is there a common theme?
44___________
Some colors bring your natural colouring to life and others can give us a washed-out appearance. Try out new colours by all means,
but remember that dressing in bright colours when you really like subtle neutral tones,
or vice versa, will make you feel selfconscious and uncomfortable.
You know deep down where your own taste boundaries lie. And although it’s good to challenge those sometimes with new combinations or shades,
take care not to go too far all at once.
45___________
So, you’ve chosen an outfit that matches your style,
your personality, your shape and your colouring. But does it fit? If something is too tight or too loose,
you won’t achieve the desired effect, and no matter what other qualities it has, it won’t improve your appearance or your confidence. Sometimes,
we buy things without thinking. Some people who dislike shopping grab the first thing they see,
or prefer to use mail-order or the Internet. In all cases, if it doesn’t fit perfectly, don’t buy it, because the finer details are just as important as the overall style.
Reappraising your image isn’t selfish because everyone who comes into contact with you will benefit. You’ll look better and you’ll feel a better person all round. And if in doubt, you only need to read Professor Albert Mehrabian’s book Silent Messages to remind yourself how important outward appearances are.
His research showed that the impact we make on each other depend 55 per cent on how we look and behave,
38 per cent on how we speak and only 7 per cent on what we actually say.
So, whatever stage you are at in your life, whatever role you play, isn’t it time you made the most of yourself?
第41题:
Why do we go wrong about our friends or our enemies? Sometimes what people say hides their real meaning. And if we don' t really listen closely we miss the feeling behind the words. Suppose someone tells you, "You' re a lucky dog." That' s being friendly. But "lucky dog?" There' s a bit of envy in those words. Maybe he doesn' t see it himself. But bringing in the "dog" puts you down a little. What he may be saying is that he doesn' t think you deserve your luck.
"Just think of all the things you have to be thankful for is another noise that says one thing and means another. It could mean that the speaker is trying to get you to see your problem as part of your life as a whole. But is he? Wrapped up in this phrase is the thought that your problem isn' t important. It' s telling you to think of all the starving people in the world when you haven't got a date for Saturday night.
How can you tell the real meaning behind someone' s words? One way is to take a good look at the person talking. Do his words fit the way he looks? Does what he says agree with the tone of voice? His posture? The look in his eyes? Stop and think. The minute you spend thinking about the real meaning of what people say to you may save another mistake.
This passage is mainly about ______.
A.how to interpret what people say
B.what to do when. you listen to others talking
C.how to avoid mistakes when you communicate with people
D.why we go wrong with people sometimes
听力原文: In public speaking, the watch word is preparation. Most of us tend to put things off, at least occasionally. It's so easy to put things off especially those things we do not look forward to doing. So if the speaking engagement is several weeks off, we may feel that we still have plenty of time. But as the day draws closer, we begin to panic. Don't let this happen to you. Start preparing as soon as you're given or accept the speaking assignment. You have much to do and to do it right will take time. How much better your speech will be and how much better you'll feel if you have taken the time to do it right! When you are prepared, you have gathered the needed data, determined what is appropriate to the listener's understanding and acceptance levels, organized the ideas so they flow logically, selected examples and other supports for your ideas and made them interesting to your listeners, developed a great opening that you know will capture the attention of even the daydreamers in your audience checked out the room where you'll be speaking and requested any feasible changes you wish in the set-up of the room If you are prepared, you are confident that you can best convey your message to your listeners. If you waited until a few days before your presentation to begin to prepare, or worse, yet, the day before, no doubt you'll be anxious and with good reason. And now there is not enough time to engage in more than a superficial attempt. Both you and the audience will feel uncomfortable, like retirement planning. It is never too early to start preparing for your presentation. So, start preparing right away.
(33)
A.Confidence.
B.Preparation.
C.Informativeness.
D.Select appropriate materials.
Marriage takes some kind of sacrifice, not dreadful self-sacrifice of the soul, but some level of compromise. Some of one' s fantasies, some of one' s legitimate desires have to be given up for the value of the marriage itself. "While all marital partners feel shackled(受束缚) at times, it is they who really choose to make the marital ties into confining chains or supporting bonds", says Dr. Whitaker. Marriage requires sexual, financial and emotional discipline. A man and a woman cannot follow every impulse, cannot allow himself or herself to stop growing or changing.
A divorce is not an evil act. Sometimes it provides salvation(拯救)for people who have grown hopelessly apart or were frozen in patterns of pain or mutual unhappiness. Divorce can be like the first cut of the surgeon' s knife, a step toward new health and a good life. On the other hand, if the partners can stay past the breaking up of the romantic myths into the development of real love and intimacy, they have achieved a work as amazing as the greatest cathedrals(教堂)of the world. Marriages that do not fail but improve, that persist despite imperfections, are not only rare these days but offer a wondrous shelter in which the face of our mutual humanity can safely show itself.
According to the author, an ideal marriage life______.
A.requires considerable sacrifice on both partners
B.requires that the couple be emotionally involved
C.allows for the growth of the husband and wife as a couple and as two individuals
D.is only an illusion in today's society

There is a special psychology of bargain hunting. To save money, of course, most people look for sales, low prices and discounts. Compulsive bargain hunters, however, often buy things they don't need just because they are cheap. They want to believe that they are helping their budgets, but they are really playing an exciting game: when they can buy something for less than other people, they feel that they are winning. Most people, experts claim, have two reasons for their behavior. a good reason for things that they do and the real reason.
It is not only scientists, of course, who understand the psychology of spending habits, but also business people. Stores, companies, and advertisers use psychology to increase business: they consider people's needs for love, power, or influence, their basic value, their beliefs and opinions, and so on in their advertising and sales methods.
Psychologists can often use a method called "behavior. therapy" to help individuals solve their personality problems. In the same way, they can help people who feel that they have problems with money.
