如何給別人留下好的第一印象

　　You never get a second chance to make a first impression, so how are you at making a good first impression in English?

　　Being able to make a FLUENT first impression doesn’t have to be as hard as you think. The beauty of first impressions is that we already know 3 things that are going to happen in the conversation, a greeting/hello, an introduction, and a goodbye/farewell. If you can memorize and even script these 3 situations, then you bound to make a fluent first impression every time.

　　For me, learning to speak Portuguese has been a difficult journey, and very intimidating when meeting new people. At the beginning I always worried about making a mistake during an introduction, offending someone, or making a bad first impression in general.About 4 months into my learning experience, I decided to learn and memorize every possible greeting, introduction and goodbye I could think of. Suddenly, I felt invincible and a lot more natural when meeting new people. My Portuguese didn’t sound so robotic, and surprisingly enough I was just saying the same words in the same situations over and over again. From my fluent first impressions, people were complimenting me on how natural my Portuguese was, even though I had only greeted them, introduced myself and used a few ice breaking techniques.

　　Using these techniques of having a fluent first impression, made me feel more confident and relaxed when speaking and it pushed me to work harder on improving my fluency in all areas of the language.

　　In this article you are going to learn how to make a FLUENT first impression in English based on these 3 most important aspects you’re going to be faced with every time, greetings/hellos, introductions/ ice breakers and goodbyes.

　　你永遠也不會得到第二個機會來製造第一印象，所以如何能用英文流利的給對方留下良好印象呢?

　　給對方留下一個流利的第一印象並非像你想象的那麼難。第一印象在對話中的魅力之處無非包含3件事情，這個已經廣為人知。那就是問好，介紹和告別。如果你能記下甚至像寫電影指令碼一樣寫下這三個場景，那麼你肯定每次都能給別人留下流利的印象。

　　對於我個人而言，學說葡萄牙語曾經是件痛苦艱難的旅程，每當見到生人我就變得很膽怯。剛開始時，我老是擔心我在做自我介紹時說錯話，冒犯了別人或是給對方留下不好印象。經過4個月的學習過程，我決定學習並儘可能背下來我所能想到的所有問候，介紹和告別的方式。突然間，我感到再見到生人後自己無敵了而且放鬆自然多了。我的葡萄牙語聽上去並不那麼生硬，而且令人驚奇的是我幾乎不停地在每個場合用同樣的話來應酬。從我給人們留下流利的第一印象可以看出，雖然我只是用了幾個簡單的問好，自我介紹和打破尷尬氣氛的技巧，人們還是恭維我，說我的葡萄牙語好。

　　使用這些讓我擁有良好第一印象的技巧讓我感到講話時更自信放鬆，而且它促使我積極改進語言各個領域的流利度。

　　本文中你將學會如何用英文流利地給對方留下良好印象，我將介紹3個您每次都要面對的重要部分——問好;介紹、打破僵局;結束對話。

　　一. Greetings/ Hellos 問好篇

　　大部分人都知道問好的方式如下：

　　-“Hi, How are you?”

　　-“Fine thanks, and you?”

　　-“Good, thanks for asking.”

　　這個對話確實百分百正確，而且可能已經被英語學習者百分百的用過了。但是，你不覺得用了這麼久已經感到厭煩了嗎?如果你想讓自己的問候有特色些，聽起來更流利些，請放棄使用那些課堂上教科書中的用法，我們有其它方法。您看下面這個聽起來如何：

　　嘿，哥們兒!***朋友***最近忙啥呢?

　　嗨，老兄!也沒忙啥，就是上上班，跟好朋友逛逛街啥的。

　　不錯嘛。

　　這聽起是不是自然多了?那麼， UP TO是什麼意思呢?
