But, I kept smiling at her, though she rolled her eyes, and I kept telling her she looked beautiful, even when she
18、was angry. Finally, Lucy let me talk to her, even in sight of her “cool” friends. She started telling me how beautiful I looked. I still remember that first time when she smiled at me saying that, and I smiled right back, telling her thanks. Lucy invited me over to her house for a party, and talked
19、to me all the time instead of her other friends. I may move to Arizona after that, but I will never forget Lucy. She was a great friend. I still smiled at Lucy when she made fun of me.

Patience is important in making friends.CMy 9-year-old daughter and I were flying from our home in Carolina to spend a week with my husband in Florida. We were excited about the trip b
24、ecause we hadnt seen him for five months, and my daughter missed her dad terribly.As usual on the Charlotte-to-Miami flight, the plane was totally full. Because we did not get our boarding passes until we arrived at the gate,Kallie and I could not get seats together and were separated by the aisle(过
25、道)。 I asked two passengers in my row if they would exchange places with Kallie and me so that we could be together. They refused, saying they thought they should stay in their own seats. Meanwhile,a mother and her three children were in a panic several rows ahead of us. There had been a mistake in t
26、heir boarding passes, and therefore the whole family had been split up. The passengers in her row also refused to move elsewhere. She was very concerned about the younger boy sitting with strangers. She was in tears,yet nobody offered to help her. There were a troop of Boy Scouts(童子军)on board. Sudde
27、nly the Scout leader stood up and said,Maam, I think we can help you.” He then spent five minutes rearranging his group so that enough space was left for the family. The boys followed his directions cheerfully and without complaint, and the mothers relief was obvious.Kallie,however,was beginning to
28、worry at the thought of not being next to me. I told her that there wasnt anything I could do.

As each semester(学期)begins,he greets his students wearing a jacket and tie.“You make only one first impression,” he says.
32、So while the rest of the semester he teaches class in his usual, more casual clothes, during the first week he presents a different image.Looking professional and trustworthy on the first day, he believes, will carry over through the rest of the semester, when he goes back to the work clothes until
33、he meets new students.His thought is that students will remember their first meet positively and more willingly give him the benefit of the doubt as the semester goes on because they have been prepared to respect him through that pleasing first impression.The effect of first impressions is related t
34、o the halo effect(晕轮效应),by which the belief in positive qualities in one thing or part leads to the belief in similar qualities in related things or in the whole.Here is an example: You meet a friendly person at a party and later are asked to get support from others for a worthy career. You contact
35、that person because you think he or she will make a contribution. In reality, there is no inbuilt connection between being pleasant and being generous. Yet the halo effect leads you to believe that the two are related. Most conclude that if she was good in one kind(sociable), she will also be positi
36、ve in another(generous).First impressions matter, for good and bad. They are fine when you like someone on firstmeeting; they are not so fine when the first meeting is unpleasant. Good first impressions lead to social connection; bad first impressions lead to social prejudice(偏见)。32.How does the aut
