如何改善人际交流能力
Ask Questions and Repeat the Other Person
问问题并重复他人的话
Let's face it, we've all drifted off when someone else was talking or misheard the other person.
Asking questions and repeating the other person's last few words shows you're interested in what they say, keeps you on your toes, and helps clarify points that could be misunderstood (e.g., "So to recap, you're going to buy the tickets for Saturday?").
It also helps for small talk and to fill in
awkward1 silences.
Instead of trying to stir up conversation on
mundane2 topics like the weather, ask the other person questions (e.g., "Got any plans for the summer?" or "What are you reading lately?") and engage in their answers.
It's more important to be interested than to be interesting.
