It's said that there is a kind of bird born without feet. They fly for their whole life and try to sing the most beautiful songs. They can only land once the time when they die.

Liu Yanzhi is just like the bird.

When Liu Yanzhi was a baby, she had an accident and lost the ability to walk. Every time she saw other children play happily outside, Liu Yanzhi really wanted to join them. But she knew she was different. That made her upset.

Once, Liu Yanzhi went out onto the street in her wheelchair. Some people saw her and began to shout, "Look! That disabled girl wore make-up(化妝品)!" "Yes, how strange!"

"Why can't a disabled girl wear make-up? Every flower has the right to show its beauty!" Liu decided to cheer up and have a wonderful life.

In 2009, Liu got a job in a local beauty shop. She was paid a little but learned a lot.

In 2012, Liu opened a beauty shop but failed. Her mother begged(乞求) her to give up, but she kept on. She traveled around to learn at different training meetings ...

After a few years' hard work, Liu succeeded. She thought she could do more. In 2017, to help other disabled people, Liu started the Taihe Sunshine Disabled Association. Now, the 31-year-old woman owns a factory that produces make-up products of her own brand.

When time finally came to get ready for work, I realized that I simply couldn't go to the office like that. I decided to call my boss for leave, but laughing was the only thing I could do on the phone.

Have you ever heard “You never get a second chance to make a first impression(印象)?” It may sound like an unusual piece of advice, but it is true—the first impression someone has of you when meeting you for the first time will probably influence how that person reacts to you in the future.

What is even more interesting is that the brain takes in all the information to create that first impression in about three seconds. When you meet someone for the first time, by the time you have said your name or shaken hands, the other person has already formed(形成) an opinion about the kind of person you are.

So how do you make a good first impression? Being polite and being well dressed is very important. However, the most important way of making a good first impression is your face. Smiling almost always leaves a positive(積極的) impression on people, especially those who do not know you. Most people, generally speaking, are ready to smile back when they are smiled at.

What’s more, smiling and being positive helps you to know and get a better understanding of new things. This means that you can possibly be friendlier to people you do not know and be more creative and able to solve problems more quickly. So if you ever need a reason to be happy, think about the wonderful people you might meet—and impress—with a cheerful smile.

【1】What do the underlined words “reacts to” in Paragraph 1 probably mean?

A.Treats.B.Changes.C.Describes.

【2】What can we learn about the first impression from Paragraph 2?

A.It comes very quickly.B.It is very strange.C.It is very interesting.

【3】What is the most important to make a good first impression?

A.Shaking hands.B.Dressing nicely.C.Smiling.

【4】What can be learned from the last paragraph?

A.Information helps you solve problems.

B.There are many reasons to be happy.

C.Being positive helps you find a way out.

【5】What would be the best title of the text?

A.The importance of the first impression

B.The ways of leaving deep impressions

C.The reasons for leaving impressions
