In the past, many students practiced English with their pen friends — they sent letters to people all around the world. However, we now send emails to others and chat with people who live quite far away on the Internet.

Here’s some advice on how to succeed in your online language exchanges:

How to start a conversation when speaking English online

When you speak to somebody online, start by asking “Yes or No” questions. Use questions such as “Do you like …?” or “Can you …?” or “Have you ever …?”

Remember your goal. You are trying to learn about the other person. Think about things you enjoy and try to find some common ground between you. And share your own experiences to show that you have similar interests. If you only ask questions, you will sound like a policeman or a policewoman!

How to keep a conversation going

“Listen” carefully. In that way, you can get to know somebody well. When you know him or her well, you will have more to talk about.

Then ask follow-up questions. After you “listen”, use what you “hear” to learn more about that person. Use “open ended” questions, such as “What do you think of …?” or “What was the most interesting experience ...?”

Remember some basic rules for online language exchanges.

Be patient. Do not try to find a good friend right away.

Be careful. Don’t give any personal information on the Internet, especially your address, telephone number, and even your real name.

Do you live in a city? Do you know how cities began? Long long ago, the world had only a few thousand people. These people moved from one place to another. They moved over the land, hunting animals for food.

No one knows how or when these people learned about growing food. But when they did, their life changed. They did not have to look for food any longer. They could stay in one place and grow it.

People began to live near one another, so the first village was established (建立). Many people came to live in the villages, and these villages became even larger.

When machines appeared, life in the villages changed again. People built factories. More and more people lived near the factories. The cities began.

Today, it’s strange that some people are moving back to small villages. Can you tell me why?
