良好的人际关系与社会交往
1.阅读理解
I did an experiment by talking to strangers recently.Here are some things I experienced
during the experiment.
On October 9th,while visiting my family hometown for a wedding,I met a man sitting on
the side of the hotel pooL We started talking.It turned out that he had just moved to the area
with his family from Chicago.I told him what I knew about the community,the schools,and
particular neighborhoods where he was looking to buy a house.He was grateful to me for my
information.The interaction made me feel useful and valuable.
On May 20th,we had three men from a tree trimming (company visiting our house
to cut back our trees.Normally,I would let them work outside without engaging them in
conversation.This time,after they finished their work,I asked one of the tree trimmers,only
half-joking,if they fell off trees frequently.One of the tree trimmers said that he had been
climbing trees for 27 years and reported he had fallen out of a tree once and hurt his knee.I
loved that conversation.I didn't always talk to someone whose job was to climb up trees,but it
was interesting for learning about how they did it.I also realized I learned something new.
On May 30th,I went to an outdoor block party on Friday night,along with my wife and
our 3-month-old baby.Our baby was wearing oversized noise-cancelling headphones that truly
looked pretty ridiculous on a baby.When I tried to talk with others,they immediately started
talking with me after seeing the baby.I found it was almost very easy to start talking with
people when you had a baby with you.
All in all,I felt great about most of my interactions with strangers.Almost every
interaction left me feeling a little happier.I also felt I learned new things by talking to people
from different walks of life who I wouldn't normally meet.
