It's school time again! You're probably feeling excited and maybe a little sad that summer is over. Some kids feel nervous or a little scared (害怕的) on the first day of school because of all the new things: new teachers, new friends, and even a new school. Luckily, these new worries only stay for a little while. Let's find out more about going to a new school.
Most teachers kick off the new school year by introducing themselves and talking about all the things you'll be doing that year. Some teachers give students a chance to tell something about themselves to the rest of the class, too. When teachers do the talking on the first day, they often go over classroom rules and school rules so you'll know what's allowed and what's not. Please pay close attention.
You might already know a lot of people in your class on the first day, but it's a great day to make new friends, so try to say hello to kids you know and new ones that you don't. Make the first move and you'll be glad you did, and so will your new friends!
Seeing old friends can make the first day an exciting one. You can make the day special by wearing clothes that you really like. Maybe you got a great T-shirt on one of your vacations, or a pair of shoes. It also can make you feel good to be prepared and have all the things you need, such as pencils, folders, and whatever else you'll be needing. But make sure that you pack (打包) them the night before in case you don't have time in the morning.
People love Shakespeare's vocabulary and creativity. He used more than 15,000 words in this writing! But Bible's Old Testament (旧约圣经) only contains 5,642 words, Shakespeare also invented many new terms and phrase.
If someone's behavior suggested they were not honest and should not be trusted. Shakespeare called them suspicious. If someone was silly and perhaps looked like a fool, Shakespeare found their actions laughable. And for those who offered their opinions on something's quality, Shakespeare called them critics (评论家). Today, for instance, food critics and film critics give their opinions on food and film.
The familiar phrase "break the ice" comes from Shakespeare's play The Taming of the Shrew. The "ice is broken" when people in a group, who have never met before, begin to talk to each other by doing some activities. More common words were first used by Shakespeare including "road", "gossip", "lonely", "bump" and "hurry".
Four hundred years after his death. Shakespeare surely lives on, in everyday speech, as the most famous writer of all time.
Thomas Bach the president of the International Olympic Committee, this week expressed optimism for a glorious Summer Games this year in Tokyo, where the world, in his view, will reunite after defeating the coronavirus pandemic.
Yet nine months after the IOC and organizers in Tokyo agreed to postpone the 2020 Summer Games for one year, the level of uncertainty surrounding the event has hardly waned, despite the fact that hopes for a successful Olympics have never been higher.
Will Japan open its borders, which have been largely closed since April, and allow the friends and families of Olympians, or any fans for that matter, to attend the Games? Will the Olympic Village, where most of the athletes and support staff usually live during the Games, function as a kind of bubble, with access to the city cut off? Will athletes have to quarantine either in their home countries ahead of the Games or in Japan once they arrive?
Japan has spent more than $12 billion preparing for the Olympics, although some estimates have put the actual figure at roughly $26 billion, including infrastructure projects. Postponing the Games for a year has cost organizers more than $1 billion. The IOC doubled its contribution to Tokyo organizers to $1.6 billion, to help cover the costs.
The overall budget includes $800 million from sales of some 7.8 million in tickets. For a typical Summer Games, overseas customers can account for about 30% of ticket sales. It's hard to predict just how much financial loss Japan will suffer with a lack of overseas travelers to the Olympics.
The importance of first impressions in finance
When it comes to the world of finance, first impressions mean everything. First impressions also mean that not everyone is treated equally, and people who look and sound the part are received better than people who make a poor first impression.
Timing
It only takes 30 seconds to make a lasting impression, and this is true even when you're not there. This means "Don't be late!" Being late shows that you don't have respect for other people's time. This is not the impression you want to give your employer, so make sure you are at least 5-10 minutes early.
Handshake
Your handshake can say a lot about you. Too tight, you're domineering (盛气凌人的). A warm and firm (坚定而有力的) handshake is perfectly acceptable.
Body Language
Your body movements are part of both your personality and appearance. Use them wisely. Carry yourself with confidence, like you're very successful, even if you're not. Walking in with purpose and power will give you an air of confidence.
Knowledge
If your interviewer asks what you think of the company's recent efforts, the last thing you want to do is just stare back. Do your research. Who founded it? What is their goal? You want to show the employer that you care enough to read up on who they are.
Doing your research and putting it all together confidently and knowledgeably is exactly what the interviewers look for in an employee.
A. When was the company founded?
B. You may not be able to recover from it.
C. Too loose, you're weak or not confident.
D. You're expected to ask intelligent questions.
E. Here are a few tips to help you make your first impression.
F. By doing this, you can leave a good impression in your interview.
G. Being late will ruin your first impression in the eyes of your interviewer.

Today was my first school day in Senor high school. I was a little anxious I wanted to make a good first (impress) on others. In the morning, I had my first maths class. I found it was difficult, which worried me a lot. (lucky), the teacher and most classmates were kind friendly. The teacher even told a funny story, making everyone laugh. In the afternoon, we had interesting chemistry class in the newly built lab. However, the guy beside me always tried to talk to me. What he did stopped me from (concentrate) on the interesting experiment, and all that (annoy) me greatly.
By the end of the day my worry (disappear). I no longer felt awkward or(frighten). Instead, I began to feel a lot more confident. I believe I can make many new friends and live a wonderful life campus.
