This may require that you step outside of your comfort zone, as well as risk being refused. There are four steps for building a friendship. Step 1: Gather the Wood If you are tired of being lonely, look for some potential friends. If the people around you are not the ones for building friendships, you must find a way to meet new people. Step 2: Lay the Fire Begin a conversation with a potential friend. This person around you may be surprised that you make the first move. For instance, you might open with something like “I’ve already run 5km before. How many have you completed?” Step 3: Strike the Match If the potential friend responds (回应) warmly and you both enjoy the small talk, you may want to take another step. For instance, you might say, “Wow, this has been fun! Are there any other cool art shows around town now?” Step 4: Keep the Friendship Flame Burning If you and the potential friend are willing to have a second meeting, say something like, “So many cool ideas were shared at this writer’s club, do you want to drink coffee and continue our conversation?” If the potential friend isn’t interested in a friendship and then falls back into the “acquaintance” or “stranger”, that is OK!

Not only can small talk help us understand each other better, but also it can break the ice and kill time. So I think it is important to learn to make small talk. To start with, it is a good idea to smile before you start small talk because it can make others think you are a friendly person. Secondly, in order not to make others uncomfortable, avoid personal topics, such as age, marriage, money. What’s more, you can start small talk with such topics as the weather and hobbies. Small talk can be a big challenge, but a good preparation is what we need. 【详解】[总体分析] ①题材：本文是一篇说明文，为材料作文； ②时态：时态为“一般现在时”； ③提示：根据题干中的提示介绍闲聊的优点以及如何闲聊，可适当增加细节。 [写作步骤] 第一步，引出话题，介绍闲聊的优点； 第二步，根据提示要点介绍应该如何闲聊； 第三步，总结全文。 [写作要点] ①to start with首先 ②in order not to do sth.为了不做某事 [高分句型] ①Not only can small talk help us understand each other better, but also it can break the ice and kill time.(倒装句) ②it is a good idea to smile before you start small talk because it can make others think you are a friendly person.(before引导的时间状语从句，because引导的原因状语从句) 9 / 9 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 京 Unit 8 Let’s Communicate! 课时6 Section B (3a-3c) 分层作业 核心知识速记 01基础达标 03拓展培优 02能力提升 04思维进阶 词汇 1. event /ɪˈvent/n. 公开活动；重要事情 2. cost /kɒst/n./v. 费用 3. opportunity /ˌɒpəˈtjuːnəti/n. 机会；时机 4. benefit /ˈbenɪfɪt/v./n. 对…… 有用 5. reply /rɪˈplaɪ/n.&v. 回答；回复 6. honour /ˈɒnə(r)/n./v. 荣幸 7. sincerely /sɪnˈsɪəli/adv. 真诚地；诚实地 8. opening /ˈəʊpnɪŋ/adj. 开篇的；开始的 9. closing /ˈkləʊzɪŋ/adj. 结尾的；结束的 10. sentence /ˈsentəns/n./v. 句子 11. date /deɪt/n./v. 日期；日子 12. clause /klɔːz/n. 从句；分句 句型 1.
