show the results of your survey.

Follow these steps to make your survey.

Think about the questions you want to ask. What do you want to know about people’s timetables? What do you want to know about how

they use gadgets?

two types of questions?

Frist impression

When we meet a stranger, we create an idea of that person in our mind. We call it first impression.

How do we create first impression of people. Most of time, we see what the person looks like, We look at the person’s physical appearance, such as eyes, hair and height.

A writer, Malcolm Gladwell, did a survey of the leaders of big companies in the United States. He found that a lot of them were tall men. Gladwell says that we choose taller people to be our leaders without knowing it. This is because tall people feel like leaders to us. But not everyone agrees. We don’t always make important decisions based only on out first impression.

Giving people a good impression can be important, like in a job interview. But first impressions are not always true. We often change how we feel about people when we know them better.

C.  Write a complaint letter to the head of your school to tell about riding bike to school  

As you know nowsadays , many students go to school by bike. It is not necessary to say if they ride their bike in the law but they always break law. Many students ride their  bike too fast and use one hand or no hands by riding. This leads to that the accidents may happen or make the other folk in danger. Some of them may be in danger, too. On the other hand, they often make a line four or five bicycles on the streets and they  always talk or eat when riding, they don’t pay attention on traffic, so it really affects to people who are on the way with them. You think the principal should remind these students in front of all students and punish them heavily.
