How We Form First Impression
1
We all have first impression of someone we just met. But why Why do we form an
opinion about someone without really knowing anything about him or her aside
perhaps from a few remarks or readily observable traits.
2 The
answer is related to how your brain allows you to be aware of the world. Your
brain is so sensitive in picking up facial traits, even very minor difference in
how a person’s eyes, ears, nose, or mouth are placed in relation to each other
make you see him or her as different. In fact, your brain continuously processes
incoming sensory information-the sights and sounds of your world. These incoming
"signals" are compared against a host of "memories" stored in the brain areas
called the cortex system to determine what these new signals "mean".
3 If you see someone you know and like at school, your brain says
"familiar and safe". If you see someone new, it says, "new potentially
threatening". Then your brain starts to match features of this stranger with
other "known" memories. The height, weight, dress, ethnicity, gestures, and tone
of voice are all matched up. The more unfamiliar the characteristics, the more
your brain may say, "This is new. I don’t like this person". Or else. "I’m
intrigued". Or your brain may perceive a new face but familiar clothes,
ethnicity, gestures-like your other friends; so your brain says: "I like this
person." But these preliminary "impressions" can be dead wrong.
4 When we stereotype people, we use a less mature form of thinking (not unlike
the immature thinking of a very young child) that makes simplistic and
categorical impressions of others. Rather than learn about the depth and breadth
of people-their history, interest, values, strengths, and true character-we
categorize them as jocks, geeks, or freaks,
5 However, if we
resist initial stereotypical impressions, we have a chance.to be aware of what a
person is truly like. If we spend time with a person, hear about his or her
life, hopes, dreams, and become aware of the person’s character, we use a
different, more mature style of thinking and the most complex areas of our
cortex, which allow us to be humane.

How can we get rid of garbage Do we have enough energy sources to meet our future energy needs
These are two important questions that many people are asking today. Some people think that man might be able to solve both problems at the same time. They suggest using garbage as an energy source, and at the time it can save the land to hold garbage.
For a long time, people buried garbage or dumped it on empty land. Now, empty land is scarce. But more and more garbage is produced each year. However, garbage can be a good fuel to use. The things in garbage do not look like coal, petroleum, or natural gas; but they are chemically similar to these fossil fuels. As we use up our fossil-fuel supplies, we might be able to use garbage as an energy source. Burning garbage is not a new idea. Some cities in Europe and the United States have been burning garbage for years. The heat that is produced by burning garbage is used to boil water. The steam that is produced is used to ma
