Câu hỏi: Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 30 to 34.
When we meet people for the first time, we often make decisions about them based entirely on how they look. And of course, we too are being judged on our appearance. Undoubtedly, it's what's inside that's important but sometimes we can send out the wrong signals and so get a negative reaction, simply by wearing inappropriate clothing.
When selecting your clothes each day, it is therefore important to think about who you're likely to meet, where you are going to be spending most of your time and what tasks you are likely to perform. Clearly, on a practical level, some outfits will be more appropriate to different sorts of activity and this will dictate your choice to an extent. However, there's no need to abandon your individual taste completely. After all, if you dress to please somebody else's idea of what looks good, you may end up feeling uncomfortable and not quite yourself.
Some colours bring your natural colouring to life and others can give you a washed-out appearance. Try out new ones by all means, but remember that dressing in bright colours when you really like subtle neutral tones or vice versa will make you feel self-conscious and uncomfortable. You know deep down where your own taste boundaries lie. It may be fun to cross these sometimes, but do take care not to go too far all at once.
Reappraising your image isn't selfish because everyone who comes into contact with you will benefit. You'll look better and you'll feel a better person all round. And if in doubt, you only need to read Professor Albert Mehrabian's book Silent Messages, which showed that the impact we make on Silent Messages each other depends 55 percent on how we look and behave, 38 percent on how we speak, and only seven percent on what we actually say.

Choosing Appropriate Business Suits: Lựa chọn trang phục suit phù hợp cho thương gia
Making Judgements about People's Apperance: Đánh giá về ngoại hình của mọi người
Making Your Image Work for You: Khiến hình ảnh của bạn có lợi cho bản thân
Creating a Professional Image: Tạo ra một hình ảnh chuyên nghiệp
Dẫn chứng (đoạn 1): When we meet people for the first time, we often make decisions about them based entirely on how they look. … sometimes we can send out the wrong signals and so get a negative reaction, simply by wearing inappropriate clothing: Khi chúng ta gặp ai đó lần đầu tiên chúng ta thường đánh giá về họ hoàn toàn dựa trên việc họ trông như thế nào … đôi khi chúng ta có thể đưa ra những tín hiệu sai, do đó nhận được phản ứng tiêu cực đơn giản chỉ vì những gì ta mặc không phù hợp.
Đoạn đầu tiên tác giả dẫn dắt vấn đề và chốt rằng việc ăn mặc không phù hợp có thể dẫn đến bị đánh giá không đúng, và các đoạn văn sau đi vào phân tích cách để tránh điều này. Vậy nên nhan đề phù hợp cho cả bài là phương án C.
