【文化小常识】初次见面之互相介绍↓↓↓

自我介绍的方式将决定人们对你的第一印象，通常，人们在前三秒中已形成对你的初步印象，而这种印象在今后的进一步交往中也很难改变。

1. 眼神交流。忌紧盯对方眼睛，为避免尴尬，交流的时候，最好将视线放在对方的眉宇之间。

2. 适当微笑。Smile, you never know who will fall in love with your smile.

3. 自报家门。

（1）自我介绍。

“hi, I'm…”（嗨！我叫……）教研君有一位来自美国Michigan的朋友，记得我们第一次见面的时候，这位朋友是这么自我介绍的→ hi, I'm Elizabeth, but you can call me Liz. 见面时给出对方自己的昵称，可以让人与人的距离顿时拉近不少呢！同学们以后可以多多使用这个小技巧哦～

（2）聊兴趣。
