【解析】本文教你如何改變?nèi)藗儗δ愕膲挠∠蟆?/span>

【1】F

根據(jù)下句：然而，你可以采取一些行動來改變?nèi)藗儗δ愕膲挠∠�。由此可知上句的意思是：很難從一個人的腦海中抹去一個糟糕的第一印象。故選F。

【2】A

根據(jù)下文：否則，你不停地提起過去，它會使別人感到不舒服�？芍�，小心不要做的過火。故選A。

【3】E

根據(jù)上句：記住只把幽默指向自己。可知，這樣你就可以避免任何不舒服的感覺。故選E。

【4】D

根據(jù)上句：你制造了一個壞影響之后，可以很容易地認(rèn)為每個人都認(rèn)為你是最壞的。再根據(jù)空格下句：不要假設(shè)別人對你的看法，向她解釋你對自己的行為感到羞恥并且問問他你的行為如何影響了他。可知此空的意思是：然而，事情并不像看上去那么糟糕。故選D。

【5】B

此空是一個小標(biāo)題，應(yīng)該用祈使句，所以只能在A/B/G中選，A項已被選走，排除。再根據(jù)空格下句：為了克服壞的第一印象，你今后的言語和行動必須始終如一。由此可知，要重視未來的言談舉止。故選B。

在七選五時一定要注意and/but/so/besides/however/furthermore/moreover/in addition/what’s more等詞匯、固定結(jié)構(gòu)的運用。它們連接了上下文，起著承上起下的作用。像but（但是）、however（然而），表示轉(zhuǎn)折，這說明前后的內(nèi)容相反或相對。把握住這一點，做起題來就會得心應(yīng)手。本題第1小題，___1___However,there are actions you can take to change people's bad impression of you. 根據(jù)下句：然而，你可以采取一些行動來改變?nèi)藗儗δ愕膲挠∠�。由此可知上句的意思是：很難從一個人的腦海中抹去一個糟糕的第一印象。故選F。
