25、-hunter knows, it helps to dress smartly and smile at that all-important interview. But research has showed that a firm handshake is what really matters when it comes to impressing potential employers.The US research looked at 98 undergraduates taking part in mock (模拟) interviews with businesses. As
26、 each undergraduate was graded on their overall performance, five “handshake raters“ also marked them on their grasp, strength, duration, vigor and eye contact.4Professor Greg Stewart, from the University of Iowa, who led the study, said those who scored highly with the handshake raters were also co
27、nsidered to be the most hirable by the interviewers. Students with “ wimpy“（虚弱的） shakes were judged to be more timid and less impressive.The study also found women with a firm handshake were likely to be evaluated more favorably than their male counterparts.Professor Stewart said: “Weve always heard
28、 that interviewers make up their mind about a person in the first two or three minutes of an interview. But we found that the first impression begins with a handshake that sets the tone for the rest of the interview. We dont consciously remember a persons handshake but it is one of the first non-ver
29、bal clues we get about the persons overall personality, and that impression is what we remember.“Women were less likely to have a highly rated handshake, partly because traditionally they shake hands less than men. But when women did possess a firm handshake, they were likely to be evaluated more fa
30、vorably than their male counterparts.Body language experts warn, however, that the firmness needs to be just right, - as an over enthusiastic “bone crusher“ handshake can indicate self-importance, a controlling personality and a lack of trustworthiness.The handshake is thought to have originated in
31、medieval Europe as a way for kings and knights to show that they did not intend to harm each other and possessed no hidden weapons.56. The passage is probably intended for _.A. job-hunters B. an undergraduate C. employers D. handshake raters57. From the first paragraph we know that in an interview _
32、.A. dressing smartly is more important than a firm handshakeB. smile has no effect on impressing potential employersC. a firm handshake is more important than dressing smartly, and smileD. dressing smartly, smile and a firm handshake are of the same importance58. Which of the following statements is
33、 NOT true according to the passage?A. The firmer your handshake is the better impression you leave.B. The undergraduates without a firm handshake are thought to be less impressive.C. Generally speaking, women shake hands less with others.D. Its said that the handshake dates back to medieval Europe.5
34、9. What is the main idea of the passage?A. Women with a firm handshake were likely to leave a better impression than men.B. A successful job interview starts with a firm handshake.C. Dressing, smile and a firm handshake are all important to a successful job interview.D. Job interview success depends
