Answer to Question 1

The primacy effect states that the initial impression we make when meeting someone new has a greater impact on his or her perception of us than later information. Whether people intend to or not, they make judgments about people based on their first impressions. Since first impressions stick with people longer than later impressions, a positive first impression in an interview situation means that you are more likely to be judged favorably by a potential employer.

Answer to Question 2

Arrogant people think they are perfect or know everything. Self-confident people understand themselves and their abilities.

Dogs have been used in studies to detect various cancers in human subjects. They have been trained to sniff breath samples from humans that were collected by having them breathe into special tubes. These people included 55 lung cancer patients, 31 breast cancer patients, and 83 cancer-free patients. The dogs detected 54 of the 55 lung cancer patients as having cancer, detected 28 of the 31 breast cancer patients, and gave only three false-positive results (detecting cancer in people who didn't have it).

Many people have small pouches in their colons that bulge outward through weak spots. Each pouch is called a diverticulum.

The main cause of diverticular disease is a low-fiber diet.

Astigmatism is the most common vision problem. It may accompany nearsightedness or farsightedness. It is usually caused by an irregularly shaped cornea, but sometimes it is the result of an irregularly shaped lens. Either type can be corrected by eyeglasses, contact lenses, or refractive surgery.
