你是总能把天儿聊死的那一号人吗?什么,你还真是啊?那好吧,小编来教你怎么“起死回生”吧……
No.1 Introductions
自我介绍
在你认识某个人之前, 自我介绍是个好办法。你可以向不认识你的人做自我介绍,或者提醒某些你之前见过但是已经忘记自己的人。
当你在自我介绍时,你可以加一些之前在哪里见过或者你的职业之类的信息。你甚至可以用英语学习作为谈话的开篇。
“Good morning! We always have coffee at the same time but we’ve never spoken before. My name is [Your Name].”
“早上好!我们总是同时喝咖啡,但是我们之前从没说过话。我的名字是……。”
“Hello, how are you today? My name is [Your Name]. I’m still learning English so please let me know if I make any mistakes.”
“你好,今天怎么样?我的名字是……我还在学英语,所以如果我犯错了请让我知道。”
“Hi Angela. You might not remember me but we met at Tom’s Christmas party last year. I’m [Your Name].”
“你好,安吉拉。你可能不记得我了但是我们去年在汤姆的圣诞聚会上见过。我是……”
No.2 Universal Topics
通用的话题
通用话题几乎可以被任何人分享。
像天气、时事、体育和娱乐之类的事情通常是安全的谈话开端,特别是当你和一群人谈话时——即使一个人真的不看体育,其他人或许会。
“Did you watch the Oscars last week? I can’t believe Leonardo DiCaprio finally won one!”
“你看上周的奥斯卡了吗?我不能相信莱昂纳多?迪卡普里奥终于赢了一座小金人!”
“This weather is crazy! It was cold yesterday and today I came in with an open jacket. I hope it stays warm, don’t you?”
“这个天气太疯狂了。昨天很冷,今天我穿着开怀的夹克进来。我希望天气能暖和,你呢?”
“That basketball game yesterday had me glued to my seat. Wasn’t that a great save at the very end?”
“昨天的棒球赛太有吸引力了。最后的那记扑救不是很棒吗?”
No.3 The Day
当天的情况
如果你不确定讨论什么话题,或者没有什么趣事要说,你可以问问别人当天怎么样,或者你可以说说自己的一天。
How was your day?
你今天怎么样?
How have you been feeling today?
今天感觉如何?
What have you been doing today?
今天在忙些什么?
Has anything exciting happened today?
今天有什么值得振奋的事情吗?
What are you planning for after work?
下班后打算做些什么?
Are you doing anything fun after work?
下班后要做些有趣的事吗?
你也可以分享自己的一天,你是如何做事的,但是尽量保持讲话和聆听的平衡,所以你们双方要说同样多的话(而且整个过程不要一直讨论自己)。
即使这个人看起来当天过得很糟糕,你可以用一个小谈话使它明亮起来。
一定不要问太私人的问题,而是说一些悦耳的鼓励。
“Hey there. You look like you’re having a rough day. I hope it gets better for you.”
“你好,看起来你今天比较辛苦,我希望一切能好起来。”
“Good morning! I went camping on Saturday, and of course it rained all day. Was your weekend any better?”
“早上好!我周六去野营,下了一整天的雨。你的周末好吗?”
“The day is almost over! Do you have any interesting plans for the evening?”
“今天就要结束了!晚上有什么有趣的计划吗?”
No.4 The Workplace
工作地点
有些谈话只适合在工作环境里进行。
比起更舒服随意的地方,工作上尽量少涉及私人话题,避免八卦(讨论不在场的其他人)!相反,你可以讨论某一天,一场即将到来的聚会或会议,或者问这个人的工作。
“Hi Tom. How are things going over at the IT department today?”
“你好汤姆,今天在IT部门进展顺利吗?”
“Good morning. I’m really looking forward to the party after work today. I hear Pam brought her famous carrot cake!”
“早上好。我好期待今天下班后的聚会。我听说Pam带了她最出名的胡萝卜蛋糕!”
“What a busy day. This is the first time I’ve gotten up from my seat all day! Are you busy too?”
“好忙的一天。这是我今天第一次从座位上站起来!你也很忙吗?”
No.5 Observations
观察周围
一些很好的谈话是关于你和谈话对象所处的地方。
环顾四周,寻找一些可以评论的事情,或者看着你的同伴,找一些可以称赞的好地方。没有什么比一句真诚的称赞能让人感觉更棒。
“I love your shoes today, they really pull your outfit together.”
“我喜欢你今天的鞋子,它们真的很配你的套装。”
“Did you see? They finally fixed the light in the break room. It’s been broken for almost a month!”
“你看到了吗?他们最后修好了休息室的灯。已经坏了快一个月了!”
“Hey Pam, your cookies last night were delicious! Thank you for making them for the party.”
“你好Pam,你昨晚的曲奇太好吃了!感谢你为聚会准备了饼干。”
