五種關於英語的開場白
試圖向不認識的人介紹自己可能會是件非常令人不好意思的事。如果你對他們完全不瞭解，你怎麼知道該說些什麼呢?你如何能和完全陌生的人開始有趣的對話呢?接下來，小編給大家準備了五種關於英語的開場白,歡迎大家參考與借鑑。
1：找共同點。就算你對這個陌生人完全不瞭解，事實上有一點你是知道的-你知道他們與你共處一室。“So what brings you here?” 你就可以這麼問。或是，如果你在你朋友Bob的派隊，你就可以問“How do you know Bob?”
2：讚美他們。大家都喜歡聽關於自己的甜言蜜語。“What a wonderful dress you’re wearing!”告訴他們你有多喜歡這個人的鞋子或是眼鏡。在那之後，如果他們只回答說“thank you”，你就可以接着問，類似“Where did1 you get it?” 或是“What’s it made2 out of?” 甚至是“Was it expensive?”這些問題非常有用因爲這可以讓對方多告訴你一些關於他們的事。
3：問關於他們的問題。幾乎所有的人多有工作，那麼爲什麼不問這個人，“So what do you do for a living3?” 或是“Where are you from originally4?”意思是你想了解他們是在哪裏出生的。並且，問句能讓第一次的對話更簡單一些。如果這個禮貌的話，他們也會反問你同樣的問題，這樣一來你就有談論自己的機會了。
4：介紹你自己。不要僅僅說，“Hi, my name is John.” 告訴別人更多關於你自己的信息。“Hi, my name is John. I’m a friend of Bob’s from high school. We use to have the same math class together.” 這樣可能捕捉到對方的興趣，鼓勵他們問你問題或告訴你更多關於他們的信息。
5：對某事物作評論。不要直接問任何關於對方的問題，你可以說類似“This is a great party” 或“What a lovely house this is.” 來誘導他們說出他們的看法。就算這個房子或是派對不是他們的，這樣的評論聽起來也非常的舒服容易讓人談論起來。就象是第一個建議，這些開場白能起很好的作用因爲你和對方有共同之處：你們在互相交談。
