有時候，與人交談中最困難的部分是如何開始談話。當你想和一個你此前從未見過的人交談時，可能會特別膽怯。這里有些開啟談話的妙方：

Make eye contact and offer a smile

確認眼神+微笑

You need to find someone ‘available’. Making eye contact will lead you to the person who’s also willing to talk. And after you offer a smile, try to strike up a conversation.
首先，你需要找到一個“合適的”人。確認過眼神可以讓你找到那個也愿意交談的人。微笑之后，試著開始一段對話。

Find some common ground

找到共同話題

For example, when you are waiting in line at a coffee shop, you could say to the person in front of you, "What's good here? I've never tried any of their specialty drinks."
例如你在咖啡店排隊時，你可以對前面的人說：“這里有什么好東西？我從來沒喝過他們的特色飲料。”

Comment on the situation

評論周圍情況

If you are at a party, a good place to start a conversation is near the food table.Try saying, “Isn’t it a nice party?” or “The music is great, isn’t it?”
如果在聚會上，餐桌是個開啟談話的好地方。可以說“聚會不錯哈？”或者“音樂很棒，不是嗎？”

Make a comment about the person

評論（贊美）一下Ta

With the person you want to talk to, you could say, "I really love that purse you're carrying."
你可以對你想聊天的人說，“我真的很喜歡你的包。”
