| 聊天是一门艺术，网络时代，随着面对面交流的减少，人们也忽略了闲聊对人际关系的重要作用。如何做一个善于闲聊的人呢？我们来学习下闲聊都有哪些学问吧。 You are an intelligent and articulate person. You have no problem giving a lucid presentation, delivering an eloquent speech or participating in a political debate. You strive for meaningful conversations and have no patience whatsoever for small talk. “The weather is nice, isn’t it?” Really, who cares? 你聪明机灵，口齿伶俐。给出清晰的报告、发表滔滔不绝的演讲、参加政治辩论，你无所不能。你在这些有意义的语言会话上花费心思，却对闲聊嗤之以鼻。“今天天气不错，是吧?”说实在的，谁关心呢? eloquent [英]ˈeləkwənt [美]ˈɛləkwənt adj. 雄辩的，有口才的;有说明力的; 富于表情的，逼真的;动人的 Although seemingly trivial and superficial, small talk is the starting point of all relationships. Romances and friendships begin with small talk. In a more pragmatic light, you can’t avoid it. Getting a job, working with colleagues, winning new clients — all of it requires small talk. 虽然看似琐碎肤浅，但闲聊却是建立一切关系的切入点。爱情和友谊都始于闲聊。更实际一点考虑的话，你不可能避免闲聊。求职、与同事共事、攻下新客户，这些都离不开闲聊。 trivial [英]'trɪvɪəl [美]ˈtrɪviəl adj. 琐碎的，无价值的; 平常的，平凡的;不重要的;[生]种的 Americans call it the “Gift of Gab”. Want to be successful? You’d better acquire this gift. 美国人称之为“能说会道”。你想成功?那么你***具备这项口才。 In a time where a big part of our lives has moved online, the art of small talk is elusive and mysterious. The awkward experience of feeling like a total outsider at a social function, such as a company event or a dinner party, is shared by many of us. 在这个生活逐步网络化的时代，闲聊的艺术不可思议又难以捉摸。我们中的很多人都曾有过在公司活动、宴会等社交场合中上化身“局外人”的尴尬经历。 columnist [英]ˈkɒləmnɪst [美]ˈkɑləmnɪst, -əmɪst n. 专栏作家 Bad small talkers tend to dominate the conversation. They spend too much time on their favorite topic, whether it’s football or how clever their kids are. 不擅长闲聊的人往往想要在谈话中占据主动。他们花费过多的时间来谈论喜欢的话题，无论是讨论足球还是夸奖他们的孩子有多么聪颖过人。 They think they are being social because they are talking. But they are talking to somebody, not with someone. Such people often give the impression of being self-centered and inconsiderate. 他们认为滔滔不绝就代表善于交际。但是他们说话的对象是些重要人物，而并非普通人。这样的人通常会给人留下以自我为中心、不替他人着想的印象。
