Some people make you feel comfortable when they are around. These people have something in common. And once we know what it is we can try to do it ourselves. How is it done? Here are several skills that good talkers have. If you follow the skills, they’ 11 help you put people at their ease, and make friends with them quickly. First of all, good talkers ask questions. Almost anyone, no matter how shy he is, will answer a question. And how he answers will let you know how far you can go. Second, once good talkers have asked questions, they listen to the answers. And to find out what sort of person you are talking to, you really have to listen carefully and attentively. Real listening at least means some things. First it means not to change the subject of the conversation. Real listening also means not just listening to words but to tones of voice. If the voice sounds dull, then, it’ s time for you to change the subject. Finally, good talkers know well now to deal with the occasion of parting. If you want to see that person again, don’ t keep it a secret. Let people know what you feel, and they may walk away feeling as if they’ ve known you half their life.

Most of you would probably say that what makes you truly happy is your family and the love you share in your relationships, and I couldn’t agree more. But money comes into play in those relationships. When I talk about money this way to a group, there is always someone who comes up to me and says, “Suze, you are so wrong. Money isn’t the key to life—this is’“At which point their wallet flies open and they show me a photo of their family. That’s when things get interesting, because I start asking them questions: Did you take that photo with your own camera? It looks like a beautiful beach, was the photo taken on a family vacation? Do you hope to help those beautiful boys and girls go to college? As their answers are “yes“ , I ask them how they provide all of that for their family. That’s when they understand that I had it right. I totally agree that family and friends are of great importance to our well being; without meaningful relationships, there’s no chance of ever being truly happy. That’s why, every Saturday night, I end my CNBC show with the following words:“People first. Then money. Then things. “ How we deal with the money we have also plays into our happiness. Over the past few decades (十年), the percentage of Americans who say they’re happy hasn’t changed much, while at the same time the average income has doubled. So we have more money, but we’re not much happier on average. A paradox(悖论)? Far from it. My sense is that while we’re making more money, we arent’t making more of the money we make. We have to pay for a lot of things, and we have to worry a-bout saving for retirement(退休)in a way that our parents and grandparents never did. And as man-y of you know, it’s really hard to increase your happiness when you’ve got a lot of money worries. Do you agree, or am 1 way off base? I’d love to know what do you think about the money/ happiness connection.

Where did the conversation take place?M: Five airmail stamps and three regular stamps, please. W: Here you are. That will be one dollar and eighteen cents. At the bank. In the restaurant. At the post office.

What’ s wrong with the man?W: How about your exam? M: I failed again. W: Why? Did you oversleep again? M: No, I didn’t. It’s something like this. This time, I made full preparations, but Smith told me he could get perfect marks. I decided to copy his paper and I did copy, though not completely. It turns out that his marks were lower than mine. And we both failed. W: It serves you right. He overslept again. He can’ t tell the woman the truth. He failed the exam again.

When is Julia’ s birthday?M: It’ s Julia’ s birthday tomorrow. W: Are you sure? I think it should be the day after tomorrow. M: Well, let me see. Oh, I’m sorry. You’ re right. It is the day after tomorrow. Shall we buy her a gift? W: Yes, of course. Shall we get her a new pen? M: That sounds good. But I think it’ s better to buy her a box of chocolates. W: Julia doesn’ t like sweet things. Didn’ t you know that? M: You’ re right. Er... I know. We can give her a record, for she loves music very much. W: That’ s great. Let’ s go to the music shop now. The next day. The day after next. The day they had the talk.

It was the first snow of winter. Up until now, I had been able to dress myself for recess(课间休息), but today I would need some help. Miss king, my kindergarten teacher, may still remember this one. I managed to get into my snow pants, but I struggled with my jacket because it did not fit well. It was a hand-me-down from my brother. Finally it was time to have Miss King help me with my boots. She said, “By the end of winter, you will be able to put on your own boots. “ I handed her my boots, and she managed to get the first one into place and then worked the second one on, too. I said, “They are on the wrong feet. “ She struggled to get the boots off and tried again. Then I said, “These aren’ t my boots, they are my brother’ s boots and I hate them!“ Somehow, she managed to act as though I was not an annoying little girl. She pushed and shoved, less gently this time and the boots were returned to their proper place on my feet. Seeing the end of her struggle with me, she asked, “Now, where are your gloves?“ I looked into her eyes and said, “ I did not want to lose them, so I put them into the toes of my boots. “

What was the result of the game?W: Did you watch television last night, Richard? M: Yes, I did. Was there anything that interested you, Laura? W: There was a good game. Did you see it? M: Oh, I didn’ t. I wanted to, but my wife preferred to see an old film. W: What a pity! It was quite exciting. Both teams played very well. M: How did it finish? W: It finished in a draw. What was the film like? M: It was quite good. But I missed the beginning of it because I had to eat first. W: Did your wife enjoy it? M: No, she didn’ t. After half an hour she stopped watching and started to read a book before going to sleep. It was unfinished. It was an exciting game. Neither of the teams won the game.

What are these two people talking about?M: Hi, Kate, you look happy. W: Yes, I just saw a very funny film on TV. M: What was it about? W: It was about a careless man who got into trouble wherever he went. He couldn’t do anything well. M: So you liked it? W: Yes, I did. It made me laugh a lot. M: But I’d rather see something not only interesting but also instructive. W: Oh James, don’t be so serious. People sometimes need relaxation. M: That’s true. But I think that watching TV is not just for entertainment. Sports. Music. Entertainment.

Jonny: Hey! I’ m just practicing Tai Chi(太极). Would you like to join me? Peter: I know nothing about it. Is it difficult? Jonny: It seems easy, but you need a lot of practice. You just follow me like this. Peter: OK. Don’t laugh【K1】______me. I may look funny. Jonny: Bend your knees slightly and reach out your arms like tree branches, naturally and【K2】______ (soft).

I cannot do this any longer. Jonny: Be patient! Tai Chi is【K6】______ (call)“shadow boxing“ in English. It asks you to act like water: to be flexible as well【K7】______strong. In real competition, a Tai Chi master borrows the strength of the competitor and uses this energy to fight back. The【K8】______ (hard)you try to beat him, the more likely you will get hit. He controls you! Peter: Unbelievable! Oh...【K9】______you don’t mind, I’ 11 stop and take a deep【K10】______.

Americans use many expressions with the word “dog“. People in the United States love their dogs and treat them well.【B1】______ However, dogs without owners to care for them lead a different kind of life. The expression, to lead a dog’ s life, describes a person who has an unhappy existence. Some people say we live in a dog-eat-dog world.【B2】______ They say that to be successful, a person has to work like a dog, This means they have to work very, very hard. Such hard work can make people dog-tired. And, the situation would be even worse if they became sick as a dog. 【B3】______This means that every person enjoys a successful period during his or her life. To be successful, people often have to learn new skills. Yet, some people say that you can never teach an old dog new tricks. They believe that older people do not like to learn new things and will not change the way they do things. 【B4】______People who are unkind or uncaring can be described as meaner than a junkyard dog. Junkyard dogs live in places where people throw away things they do not want. Mean dogs are often used to guard this property. They bark or attack people who try to enter the property. However, sometimes a person who appears to be mean and threatening is really not so bad. We say his bark is worse than his bite. Dog expressions are also used to describe the weather. The dog days of summer are the hottest days of the year. A rainstorm may cool the weather. But we do not want it to rain too hard.【B5】______ [A]Still, people say every dog has its day.

Charles: Yes, in Central and South America, and other tropical areas. As a matter of fact, 70% of the world’ s Cocoa trees are grown in South Africa. Cocoas beans are the seeds of the tree. Unlike the fruit, it’ s actually quite bitter. Suzie: Really? Then how does it become the sweet chocolate then? Charles: The Cocoa beans are roasted so that it dries and the flavor becomes stronger.
