from the very first day. You will face new people. You will be in a new place. It may be difficult to know
what to do. We have some tips for you to make it through the first day at a new job:
# First impression can last forever. Make sure you make a good impression. Before your first day, find
out if your new job has a dress code (rules about what you can wear to work). If so, be sure to follow it.
Remember always to be neat and clean.
# Get to work on time. Give yourself an extra 15 minutes to make sure you arrive on time.
# Pay attention to introductions. One of the first that your supervisor may do is to introduce you to co-
workers (同事). These co-workers will be important to you. They are the ones that will answer your questions
when the boss is not around.
# Ask plenty of questions. Make sure that your supervisor has told you what is expected of you. If he or
she has not told you your duties, ask for a list. Set daily and weekly goals for yourself.
# Never be the first to leave. Observe (观察) what your co-workers do around quitting time. It doesn"t look
good for you to be eager (急切) to leave.

prevent them, and we don"t know when they will happen. This makes earthquakes very dangerous. Recently,
there have been big earthquakes in China, Japan, India, and El Salvador.
What causes earthquakes? Well, all the countries and oceans of the earth are sitting on large plates (板块)
around the earth. These plates fit together like a big puzzle (拼图), and they move around. Earthquakes happen
when two plates move against each other. The earth moves up and down, like an ocean wave.
We don"t know when earthquakes will happen, but we can do some things to keep safe. We can make tall
buildings and houses stronger. And we can teach people what to do if there is an earthquake. This way, we
can make these natural disasters just a little bit less terrible.
