Put a group of strangers in a room together, and they'll probably start a conversation. "Hot today, isn't it?"one might say. "You said it." another replies.
Why do we talk so much about the weather? When we meet new people, we don't begin by telling them our life story. We start with small talk, a polite conversation about something like traffic or weather.
Research suggests that small talk can build new friendships. When we begin conversations with new people, we want to feel comfortable, and so do they. We use small talk to find common interests. Once we have a common interest, a friendship can begin.
Small talk even helps people get hired. In order to impress at a job interview, you need to bond with the interviewer right away. Proper small talk can make that first impression get you the job.
So, how can you make small talk lead to a new friendship or job? First off, find common ground. Select something around you that you share with the other person.
Next, keep the conversation going. Compliment (赞美) the other person to make himor her feel comfortable, and ask questions to show interest.
Third, keep eye contact (接触). When you look people in the eye, they feel you appreciate what they are saying. It makes you appear honest and builds trust.
Naturally, shy people might not have enough confidence to start up conversations with strangers. Talking to someone you don't know is not the easiest thing to do! Some experts say with more practice, small talk does get easier.
Some people avoid small talk because they dislike discussing things like traffic or weather. For them, they are just too small. However, when you think about it, small talk is anything but small. In fact, it is actually a very big deal!

【题目】Sometimes boys and girls find it really hard to properly deal with the relationship with people of the opposite sex. 【1】
Keep a normal and healthy state of mind. Our schools and classes are made up of boys and girls.【2】 We should make as many friends as possible. We should keep in contact with the other sex in public instead of in secret.
【3】 If you are a shy person, you can also find a way out.【4】 As both of you have much in common, you may have much to talk about. If you keep doing like that, little by little, you will gladly find you are also as free to express yourself as others.
Don’t fall into early love. The boys and girls at a adolescence (青春期) are rich in feeling. They are easy to regard the friendship as a sign of love and fall in love with each other at an early age. In my opinion, early love is a green apple that can’t be eaten. An apple won’t taste sweet until it is full ripe.【5】 Do keep out of early love.
A. First of all, you can make friends with the students who have the same interest and hobby as you.
B. Of course, there are also some special schools and classes that include only boys or girls.
C. If you have problems of this kind, here are some “dos and don’ts” for you to follow.
D. It is very natural for the boys and girls to make friends with each other.
E. As a result, early love should be forbidden by all the teachers and parents.
F. Don’t be too nervous or too shy.
G. Boys and girls at middle school are too young to carry the heavy duty of love.
