1 / 5 UNIT 3 课时检测（三） Grammar and usage Ⅰ.阅读理解 Last night, I went to a blues concert with Lily.After the concert, we met one of her old friends she hadn't seen for almost three years.They greeted each other but then stood there waiting for someone else to say something.Having a conversation is a useful skill that some people have naturally.However, most of us, like Lily and her friend, need to practice it.Here are some ideas you can use to begin and enjoy an interesting conversation.
