A news article includes body text and a photo with a short piece of text under it. It usually puts the most important information at the very beginning. If you don’t have much time to read the

请认真阅读下面短文，并根据短文内容回答问题。 How to Start a good conversation
”Hi, my name is Sara.””I’m Frank. Nice to meet you.”
Introductions, like the one above, are a great way to begin a good conversation. When you introduce yourself,be confident and comfortable.That will make others comfortable, too. After the introduction, wait a bit. If the other person doesn’t ask a question, you ask one. Starting with a question shows interest in the other person.You could ask ”What do you do?” or ”How do you know our host?” But asking something a little different shows you are clearly different. ”What did you do last weekend?” and”Have you seen any good movies recently?” are two topics you could ask about.Another good way to start with is ”Tell me about yourself.” Most people love talking about themselves.
How to keep a good conversation going
As the other person begins to answer your question, look for the same opinion.If you ask about last weekend, the person could talk about a bike ride they took. When the person finishes his opinions, you could mention an experience that you had with biking.You can then move on to discussing other sports the person may be interested in. When the other person is talking, be interested in them. Listen carefully to their answers.Don’t look around the room. That gives the other person the message that you are not really interested in them.
If you are answering the question, don’t go on and on. Answer the question and then stop. A good conversation is like a tennis game where the ball goes back and forth.
With some practice, you’ll be able to start and keep a conversation going with anyone! 1. How do you show interest in the other person after the introduction?
_______________________________________________________________________________ 2. Why is it good to start a conversation with“Tell me about yourself.”?
_______________________________________________________________________________ 3. What can you do when the other person begin to answer your question?
_______________________________________________________________________________ 4. Why can’t you look around the room when the other person is talking?
_______________________________________________________________________________ 5. What is your good way to keep a good conversation going?(请自拟一句话作答)
