问题     The secret of the successful handshake is no secret anymore. Management consultant Robert E. Brown explains what shaking hands is all about in his book The Art, the Power, the Magic: How to Read Hands that Talk.

    For example, to do the "All-American Handshake", you have to look into another person’s eyes, grasp his or her whole hand, and pump it two or three times. According to Brown, this is the hand-shake of a good listener and trustworthy person.
    Politicians and salespeople often use the " Two-Handed Shake" because it’s extra-friendly. Two-handed shakers put their left hand on the other person’s arm or shoulder as they shake hands.
    This can feel too friendly to some people, so it’s best to use it with good friends.

    Watch out for people with handshakes that pull your fingers, or twist and crush your hand. If you get one of these handshakes, the person is trying to intimidate you.

    Two more uncomfortable handshakes are the "Palm Pinch" and the "Dead Fish". A Palm Pincher shakes your hand with only a few fingers. In the Dead Fish shake, the person’s hand slides out of the handshake. It’s possible that the people with these handshakes are embarrassed or shy.
    Shaking hands is an important part of body language. It can identify someone as truthful, friendly, powerful or nervous. It’s hard to be successful without mastering a good handshake such as the All-A-merican. If this isn’t your natural handshake, don’t worry. Mr. Brown says that you can change your handshake with lots of practice. So, go on out there and start shaking hands. Just think of all the people you can meet.
Read the passage, and then tell whether the following statements are true(T)or false(F).
It is hard for people to change their ways of handshake.

选项 A、TRUE
B、FALSE

答案B

解析 (文章最后一段倒数第二句证明握手方式是可以改变的,原句为Mr.Brown says that you can change your handshake with lots of practice,因此本句错误。)
