Anne： I work with Jack Davidson. How do you know Jack？
Peter： Jack and I went to the same college. What sort of work do you do？

Peter： ……on Main Street here.
Anne： That's a great idea.

講解：
在雙方做自我介紹時(shí)，如果對(duì)方在說(shuō)名字時(shí)附加了其他信息，你就可以把這些信息作為接下來(lái)談話的話題，比如有人說(shuō)他去參加過(guò)滑雪比賽，或者他的家鄉(xiāng)你也去過(guò)等等，凡是你覺(jué)得能有發(fā)揮空間的話題，都可以和對(duì)方聊。如果實(shí)在找不到的話，你可以試探著問(wèn)對(duì)方問(wèn)題，即使得不到肯定回答，一般情況下對(duì)方也會(huì)告訴你他的他對(duì)這個(gè)問(wèn)題的意見(jiàn)和想法，這樣不就可以展開(kāi)話題了嘛。
尋找閑聊話題時(shí)常用的一些表達(dá)：
Nice day， isn't it？
Horrible weather we're having.
Excuse me， is anybody sitting here？
Say， have we met somewhere before？
Sorry， I couldn't help overhearing-did you mention something about Michael Jordon？
Excuse me， have you got a light？
Uh， I'm looking for a present for my wife， could you help me？
大家可能發(fā)現(xiàn)了，幾乎我們身邊所有的事物都可以那過(guò)來(lái)打開(kāi)話題，就是break the ice，只要大家仔細(xì)觀察，眼觀六路，耳聽(tīng)八方，就不愁找不到話題。
Dialogue Script 2 對(duì)話原文 2
Wayne： What's the weather like in your country？
Anna： It's very humid. It rains nine months of the year.
Wayne： My country is arid. We have very little rain. But when it rains， we have terrible thunderstorms and sometimes hurricanes.
Anna： The temperature at home is mild most of the time， except in winter， when for a few months it becomes severely cold.
Wayne： Oh， it's hot during the day in my country and just a little cooler at night all year long.
Anna： Well， I guess you never have snow storms， then.
Wayne： Yes， you're right. We have dust storms in the early spring and late fall. It never gets enough cold to snow， though.
Anna： Last year， we had a blizzard. It snowed for five days. That is the worst snowstorm in our history.
Wayne： I read it in the newspaper. It said that the snow turned to hail and later this turned to sleet.
Anna： Yes， the hailstones were large enough to break glass.
Wayne： I'm glad I live in a milder climate， where we have showers and rain instead of snow and sleet.
Anna： But， still you have dust storms and hurricanes！
Wayne： Oh， well. Every part of the world has weather problems， I guess.
