河北省衡水市景县第二中学2020年九年级英语4月中考模拟试卷
This summer, French soccer player Kylian Mbappé amazed the world. He "flew" across the field, scoring goal after goal, and helped France won World Cup. His latest achievement is just as amazing.
On Oct 10, the 19-year-old rising superstar made the cover of Time magazine. It says Mbappé is the future of soccer. As a striker, Mbappé was once compared to Thierry Henry, another famous French soccer player. "He is a guy who is electric like Thierry was, can dribble, can pass and is efficient," Arsenal's manager Arsène Wenger told the Mirror.
Mbappé grew up in the small French town of Bony. His parents were immigrants and didn't make much money. His father, a soccer coach, trained him and found he was quite talented. Knowing how hard life can be, Mbappé donated all the money he earned from the World Cup to charity(慈善机构). "I think it is important to help those who are in need," he told Yahoo! News.
How do you talk with people when meeting them if you want to leave a good impression? Here a some tips for you/
Tip 1 | You have to show up, which can be a challenge for many of us. You can show up as an observer（旁观者）of other interesting people and let that be a learning experience for you. Before you start talking, it's important to just listen, even if you think you are a wise storyteller. If you are close to a group of people who are discussing a topic, watch their body language and see if they will let you join in their conversation. |
Tip 2 | You'd better go in the conversation with a couple of topics to keep it going, or questions to ask if there is a short stop. Simple things like "How do you know the host?”and "How did you get here?” are always good conversation starters to a certain extent（在一定程度上）. |
Tip 3 | Don't fear silences. Awkward（令人尴尬的）silences are common part of talking with people, just rush to fill them. If you don't want to go on with the conversation, just say you are going to get another drink or something to eat, and find another group to talk with. |
Tip 4 | Relax. If you cannot keep a conversation going, or you don't know what you should say next, give yourself a little time to clear your head. Relax, and then turn back into the discussion. |
