Question

【題目】 Holding conversations may not seem like a skill. After all, everyone often talks to other people. 1.但是與陌生人交談使人覺得有點緊張和尷尬。 Here are some ways to make conversations more fun and less embarrassing.

Body language

Although it may seem strange, much communication happens without any words. 2.The way you stand and act tells people a lot about you. When you're talking with someone, stand up straight and look them in the eye. This shows that you're talking confidently. And if you're nervous, acting like you're confident can help you feel more confident. When you're listening, look at the other person. Lean (倚靠) forward to show that you're interested in what they're saying.

Back and forth

A good conversation is not a speech, which means that both people need to take part in. If you're doing all the talking, 3.停下來給別人說話的機會。 If they don't say anything, try asking them a question.

Ask questions

Questions can also help if you're struggling (努力的) to think of something to say. If you ask the other person a question, they'll talk for a while. Maybe they'll say something you relate with and can reply to. 4.People are generally excited to find others with similar interests. When you ask questions, try to come up with open-ended ones. That means questions where the answer is more than just "yes" or "no". Open-ended questions in English usually start with who, what, when, where and why.

Don't fear silence

Don't scare if the conversation has quiet moments. Every conversation has some. 5.Think of them as opportunities to change the subject to something you're interested in. You could also talk about something you've done recently. Or once again, you can ask a question about the other person.

As with any skill, you will improve at holding conversations with time. So if you're shy, be brave, ask a question, and start a conversation.
