How to Prepare for the First Time at Anything
如何为你的第一次做准备
Plan and prepare
计划和准备
If possible, try to plan and prepare as much as possible before doing something new. This way you will gain more self-confidence, and by planning and preparing you actually may have a bit more control of things.
如果可以，在做一些新事情之前尽可能地计划和做准备。这样的话你会变得更自信，事实上，通过计划和准备，你掌控事情的能力也会获得提升。
But you don't always have that sense of control. For instance, if you are going out on a first date, you cannot plan every possible topic to talk about in advance — nor is it reasonable to do that.
但是你并不总是拥有那样的掌控能力。比如说，如果你第一次出去约会，你不可能事前准备每一个可能讨论的话题，那样做也不合理。
On the other hand, if you are going to take a certification test related to your profession, you can study and prepare sothat you can reach a whole different level when you take the exam.
另外一方面，如果你将要参加一个专业考试，你可以学习和准备，所以你在考试的时候可以达到一个不同的层次。
【知识点津】
do something new 做一些新鲜的事情something 是不定代词，修饰不定代词的形容词应该放在不定代词后面。
self-confidence 自信
reasonable 合理的
on the other hand 另一方面
take the exam 考试
