21、When I was a child, my parents always told me that I should never talk to strangers. This was part of a whole list of things I should never do: Never accept food or candy from strangers, never get in a car with strangers, and so on.

But if we didn’t start a conversation with strangers, we’d never make new friends. We’d never get a job. We may miss the happiness that comes from talking with strangers. And the more people you know, the more chances you can get.

The following passage offers you some advice on how to break the ice.

Don’t just look at your shoes. Go and say “Hi” to that new guy. It will be easier to break the ice if you know more about different cultures.

British: Beautiful day, isn’t it?

The weather in Britain is changeable. So, it is one of the topics the British care most about. And there’s a simple rule: Say “Yes” whether you agree with the person’s idea on the weather or not. That’s because the British start a conversation using the weather so that they can continue their talk.

French: Where did you go on holiday?

To talk with a French person, the safest way is to ask about his or her last holiday. French students enjoy a 10-to-15-day holiday every two months. French employees(雇员) get more than one and a half months of holidays every year.

American: So, where are you from?

The US is so big and people move so often that place is always a source(来源) of talk. You can try to find a connection with the place they’re from. For example, if someone is from Los Angeles, you could say, “Oh, I have a friend who studied there.”

Fourth, limit (限制) screen time. Screen time is the time you watch TV, DVDs and videos, or using computers. It is good to take more exercise such as playing basketball, swimming and so on. You can’t watch TV for more than two hours a day.

The first thing to remember is that you must be willing to learn. It doesn’t m【2】 that you must always like the subject.

Knowing maths facts will be u【4】 in your whole life. Knowing how to spell English words c【5】 makes any kind of writing easier. Sometimes the s【6】 that you think is going to be uninteresting will become exciting when you begin to work at it and understand it more clearly.

Make good use of class time to listen to e【7】 the teachers say. Really listening in class means less work after class.

Look around your house and find a quiet place with good lighting for study. Get everything r【8】 before you sit down to study. Reviewing the important points that were mentioned by the teachers in class will consolidate (巩固) what you have learned. Previewing the material that the teacher will teach the next day will help you understand it more easily in class and you will remember it l【9】.

These ways may help you with your study. You will probably discover many others after you have tried these. The way which is s【10】 for you is the best.
