No one wants to look silly or do the wrong thing at a new job. It is important to make the right impression from the very first day. You will face new people. You will be in a new place. It may be difficult to know what to do. Here are five tips to help you make it through the first days at a new job:
1．First impressions can last forever. Make sure you make a good one. Before your first day, find out if your new job has a dress code (rules about what you can wear to work). If so, be sure to follow it. No matter what, always be neat and clean.
2．Get to work on time. Give yourself an extra 15 minutes to make sure you arrive on time.
3．Pay attention to introductions. One of the first things that your supervisor may do is to introduce you to co-workers. These co-workers will be important to you. They are the ones who will answer your questions when the boss is not around.
4．Ask a lot of questions. Make sure that your supervisor has told you what is expected of you. If he or she has not told you your duties, ask for a list. Set daily and weekly goals for yourself.
5．Never be the first one to leave. Observe what your co-workers do around quitting time (下班时间). It does not look good for you to be eager to leave.

Besides the excitement of travel, one reason to study abroad is that you will experience new customs, holidays, foods, art, music, and politics firsthand.
“I learned the language and am now fluent, but perhaps what’s more important was how much I learned about cultures, people, and myself. I learned this from the viewpoint of an active member of the community and my host family, not from the tourist’s point of view,” says Andrew, who studied in Poitiers, France.
Another reason for studying abroad is that you’ll gain self-confidence. Christina studied in Caracas, Venezuela, a city of 10 million people and a huge change from her home town of 35,000! Christina says she learned how to better stand up for herself and her beliefs and to express herself in another language. What could make you more confident than that?
Living away from home can also help you adjust in the transition(过渡) to college and adulthood. Mathew says he returned from studying in Australia with confidence and a real interest in international affairs that made him different from his peers(同龄人). “After having gone abroad in high school, I found the transition to college to be a breeze –moving 560 miles from home didn’t seem particularly frightening after having lived thousands of miles away.”
Most of all, it’s fun while you’re studying in a different learning environment.
1.The passage is mainly about .
A．the benefits of studying abroad
B．living in a foreign country
C．the excitement of travel
D．learning a language
2.What did Andrew pay special attention to while studying abroad?
A．Host families. B．The foreign cultures.
C．Places of interest. D．Community problems.
3.The example of Christina mainly shows that studying abroad can .
A．change our habits B．offer us opportunities
C．increase our knowledge D．build our confidence
4.The underlined words “a breeze” in Paragraph 4 probably refer to .
A．something very important B．something very interesting
C．something very easy D．something very soft
