英語交流中常用的開場話題
“小姐,今天過得怎么樣?”
A genuine hello accompanied by a heartwarming, three second smile is one of the most basic, highly effective ice breakers there is.
一句真誠的問候搭配上一個溫暖的三秒鐘微笑是最基本也最有用的開場白。
Think about the people who say “good morning” or “howdy” to their neighbors. This simple greeting is usually followed up with “how are you” or “how are the kids?” Before long, the two parties are talking about their families and even favorite sports teams.
想想這個人說“早上好”或“您好”,他們的鄰居。這句簡單的問候通常都是“你是怎樣的”還是“孩子怎么樣?”“不久前,兩個人都在談?wù)撍麄兊募彝,甚至是最喜歡的運(yùn)動隊(duì)。
“你的耳環(huán)真漂亮!”
This comment represents a classic technique that is quite effective for starting a conversation. Regardless of whom you are talking to, saying something genuinely nice about their outfit, accessories or even mood will usually be received well.
這句評價代表了開場白中十分有用的一種經(jīng)典技巧。不論你在和誰聊天,真誠地贊美一下他們的著裝、配飾、甚至是心情,對方通常會很樂意接受。
The person receiving the compliment will thank you and possibly say something nice about you in return. In doing this, a dialogue begins. Keep the dialogue going by asking a question like “Where did you buy the earrings? I really like them.”
接受你贊美的人會向你表示感謝,可能還會對你說一些贊美的話作為回報。這樣一來,一場對話就開始了。想要繼續(xù)對話,可以問這樣的問題,比如“你的耳環(huán)在哪里買的?我非常喜歡。”
“這家商店門口總是要排這么長的隊(duì)嗎?”
By focusing on an unpleasant situation that you both find yourselves in and subtly complaining about it, you cleverly suck the other person into an unwitting pact that unites both of you against a common enemy.
關(guān)注某個你們共同身處的不愉快的場景并且不經(jīng)意地抱怨,你就巧妙地把對方和自己拉到了一條陣線上,對抗一個共同的敵人。
“芝加哥確實(shí)是風(fēng)之城啊!”
Yes. Talk about the weather. It may sound clichéd, but it works wonders in real life. People talk about the weather all the time—It’s a topic everyone has an opinion on. Think of how you have an opinion about what dress or fashion choice is right for different weather.
沒錯,談?wù)撎鞖狻B犐先ヒ苍S有點(diǎn)老套,但在現(xiàn)實(shí)中確實(shí)管用。人們總是在談?wù)撎鞖?mdash;—這是一個人人都可以發(fā)表觀點(diǎn)的話題。你可以想想對于不同天氣該如何穿衣搭配的觀點(diǎn)。
Once the person responds, you can ease into the conversation with “small talk” like, “The wind is so strong; it nearly blew me over!”
一旦對方做出回應(yīng),你就可以很容易把談話繼續(xù)下去,比如“風(fēng)太大了,就快把我吹跑了!”
