Talk with their reading classteachers.DWe?ve been there: in a lift, in line at the bank or on an airplane, surrounded bypeople who are, like us, deeply focused on their smartphones or, worse, strugglingwith the uncomfortable silence.What?s the problem? It is possible that we all have compromisedconversational intelligence. It?s more likely that none of us start a conversationbecause it?s awkward and challenging, or we think it?sannoying and unnecessary.But the next time you find yourself among strangers,consider that small talk isworth the trouble. Experts say it?s an invaluable social practice that results in bigbenefits.Dismissing small talk as unimportant is easy, but we can?t forget that deeprelationships wouldn?t even exist if it weren?t for casual conversation. Small talk isthe grease (润滑剂) for social communication, says Bernardo Carducci, director ofthe Shyness Research Institute at Indian University Southeast. ost every grea“t Almlove story and each big businessdeal begins with small talk, h”e explains. “Thekey to successful small talk is learning how to connect with others, not justcommunicate with them. ”In a 2014 study, Elizabeth Dunn, associate professor of psychology at UBC,英语试卷 第 5 页 共 12 页invited people on their way into a coffee shop.
