【make conversation 找話題聊天】
“找話題聊天”make conversation，有助于減少你與他人彼此相處時(shí)的尷尬，至于要如何“破冰”break the ice，避免僵局以及冷場(chǎng)的情況出現(xiàn)，這里提供一些小小的技巧。建議你可以從詢問吃喝玩樂的去處開始，讓他人提供你建議，也順便滿足一下他們小小的成就感。以下的問句用法一旦嫻熟于心，包你吃香喝辣，玩到腿軟。
A: Can you recommend a place to eat/go?
你可以推薦我吃東西/好玩的地方嗎？
B: There is a great spot just around the corner. If you don't mind, I'd like to join you.
