D ) Understand the context
E ) Work with professionals
F ) Make it efficient
G ) Know your goals
    No matter how formal or informal the work environment, the way you present yourself has an impact. This is especially true in first impressions. According to research from Princeton University, people assess your competence, trustworthiness, and likeability in just a tenth of a second, solely based on the way you look.
    The difference between today’s workplace and the "dress for success" era is that the range of options is so much broader. Norms have evolved and fragmented. In some settings, red sneakers or dress T-shirts can convey status; in others not so much. Plus, whatever image we present is magnified by social-media services like Linkedln. Chances are, your headshots are seen much more often now than a decade or two ago. Millennials, it seems, face the paradox of being the least formal generation yet the most conscious of style and personal branding. It can be confusing.
    So how do we navigate this? How do we know when to invest in an upgrade? And what’s the best way to pull off one that enhances our goals? Here are some tips:
    【B6】________
    As an executive coach, I’ve seen image upgrades be particularly helpful during transitions—when looking for a new job, stepping into a new or more public role, or changing work environments. If you’re in a period of change or just feeling stuck and in a rut, now may be a good time. If you’re not sure, ask for honest feedback from trusted friends, colleagues and professionals. Look for cues about how others perceive you. Maybe there’s no need for an upgrade and that’s OK.
    【B7】________
    Get clear on what impact you’re hoping to have. Are you looking to refresh your image or pivot it? For one person, the goal may be to be taken more seriously and enhance their professional image. For another, it may be to be perceived as more approachable, or more modern and stylish. For someone moving from finance to advertising, maybe they want to look more "SoHo." (It’s OK to use characterizations like that.)
    【B8】________
    Look at your work environment like an anthropologist. What are the norms of your environment? What conveys status? Who are your most important audiences? How do the people you respect and look up to present themselves? The better you understand the cultural context, the more control you can have over your impact.
    【B9】________
    Enlist the support of professionals and share with them your goals and context. Hire a personal stylist, or use the free styling service of a store like J. Crew. Try a hair stylist instead of a barber. Work with a professional photographer instead of your spouse or friend. It’s not as expensive as you might think.
    【B10】________
The point of a style upgrade isn’t to become more vain or to spend more time fussing over what to wear. Instead, use it as an opportunity to reduce decision fatigue. Pick a standard work uniform or a few go-to options. Buy all your clothes at once with a stylist instead of shopping alone, one article of clothing at a time.
【B6】
选项
答案C
解析 首先要对本段的核心主旨进行定位，再将主旨线索与待选项进行匹配来确定哪一个标题能够概括总结本段内容。首先，本段首句中出现了关键词“image upgrades”，与待选项中的A)Create a new image of yourself存在一定的复现关系，但如果再进一步对比的话会发现本段的“image upgrades”与“new image”实际上还是有差异的。同时我们继续定位本段就会发现大量涉及时间的关键线索：during transitions--when looking for a new job、a period of change、a goodtime。综合这些关键线索，可知本段的核心主旨是在探讨“image upgrades”的时间问题，即“image upgrades”在什么时间是helpful(有帮助的)，这也是本段首句的核心意思。据此去对比7个待选项，选项B)、D)、E)、F)、G)与本段主旨明显不符，选项A)虽然提及了new image，但这个“new image”与本段的“image upgrades”有差异，而且选项A)的核心主题没有涉及时间，显然选项C)Decide if the time is right(决定时间是否合适)是唯一在探讨time的选项，也是唯一的正确答案。
