Let’s Talk in English 大家說英語 – August 2019

2

You meet new people in many places.

You meet them at work or at parties.

Sometimes friends introduce them

to you. Be friendly. Show interest in

them. Ask them questions. You can ask,

“Where are you from?” You can ask

about their job. You can ask about likes

and dislikes. Listen to their answers.

And let them ask you questions. Then

you can know more about each other.
