Some people trust their first impressions about a person’s character because they believe these judgments are generally correct. Other people do not judge a person’s character quickly because they believe first impressions are wrong. Get ready to talk to an examiner about this issue.

As we all know, some people quickly jump into conclusions about a
person
’s
character
solely based on their
first
impression on the
person
but others try not to so. In my opinion, I myself
incompletely
Suggestion
in completely
with
this
inasmuch as it can be
misleadind
designed to deceive or mislead either deliberately or inadvertently
misleading
To begin
with, those who always trusts
first
impressions about a
person
's
character
are misleading. There is a Chinese saying: we cannot judge a
person
by his appearance.
That is
, the appearance is not always telling the truth. One of my neighbours is a good-looking girl who seems appealing. I thought she was warm-hearted and willing to help others.
Nevertheless
, after personal contacts with her, I find she is bad tempted and particularly with peels,
thus
do not get along with others.
Moreover
, a judgment from
first
impressions is too hasty. The judgment of a
person
's
character
should be careful because it affects not only two parties. With different cultural backgrounds, different people have distinct impressions of a given
person
. Suppose you think a girl with short skirt is misbehaviour, while I believe she is open-minded and energetic.
Therefore
, without
further
communication or observation, you cannot persuade me to share your view, neither can I.
Last
but not least,
first
impressions are always made on purpose and they are not worth of trust.
For example
, in a recruitment meeting, a girl wears neatly and shows much respect to every
person
. In fact, she is pleasing every one for the position.
However
, in the
second
interview, we find she is too flattering and not considerate. In
this
case,
further
contacts give us more accurate information about her
character
. From all the discussions above, I could safely arrive at my conclusion that
although
the
first
impression can tell something about a
person
's
character
, we should not trust it and take it for granted that it is correct. It is more responsible to make
further
judgments and leave the
first
impressions as reference.

Support ideas with relevant, specific examples

Examples make your writing easier to understand by illustrating points more effectively.

Examples, if used properly, not only help you get higher marks for ‘Task Response’ but also for ‘Coherence’.

When giving examples it is best to put them after your main idea or topic sentence. They can be used in the middle of supporting sentences or they can be used to start a new sentence. There is no rule for where exactly to give examples in essays, logically they would come after your main idea/topic sentence or just after a supporting sentence.

Linking words for giving examples:

  • for example
  • for instance
  • to illustrate this
  • to give a clear example
  • such as
  • namely
  • to illustrate
  • take, for example
