Watch and review
Can you retell the text
Do you get nervous when you talk to someone Do you find it hard to have a conversation with a stranger If you have such worries, it’s time for you (learn) some more conversation skills.
First, listen (careful) and show interest in others. Being good listener helps you find good points to ask questions about. For example, if someone tells you (they) hobby, you can ask about it—they’ll be happy to continue.
Second, choose right (topic). Good ones are weather, sports or food. But if you don’t agree others, don’t argue with them—just move to another topic.
Third, be honest and sincere. If you know (everything) about a subject, say “I don’t know much about it.” Don’t pretend to be nice.
Finally, pay attention to body language. It’s as (important) as your words. Stand straight, smile, and share you love—you have a lot to offer.
If you practice these skills, you (find) conversations easier.

1e. Read again and discuss.
According to the text, listening plays an important role in a conversation. What do you think makes a good listener
Do you thinks the tips are reasonable Why or why not
What other tips can you add to the text
Taking a genuine interest in what the other person wants to say makes a good listener.
I think they are reasonable because they encourage people to be mindful when having a conversation.
Ask open-ended questions. For example, instead of asking “Did you have a good day ”, we can ask “ What was the best part of your day ”
