Some people make you feel comfortable when they are around. You spend an hour with them and feel as if you have known them half your life.
Here are several skills that good talkers have. If you follow the skills, they'll help you put people at their ease, and make friends with them quickly.
First of all, good talkers ask questions. One well-known businesswoman says, "At business lunches, I always ask people what they did that morning. It's a common question, but it will get things going." From there you can move on to other matters—sometimes to really personal questions. Second, once good talkers have asked questions, they listen to the answers. This point seems clear, but it isn't. Your questions should have a point and help to tell what sort of person you are talking to. And to find out, you really have to listen carefully and attentively.
If someone sticks to one topic, you can take it as a fact that he's really interested in it. Real listening also means not just listening to words, but to tones of voice. If the voice sounds dull, then, it's time for you to change the subject. Finally, good talkers know well how to deal with the occasion of parting. If you're saying goodbye, you may give him a firm handshake and say, "I've really enjoyed meeting you." Let people know what you feel, and they may walk away feeling as if they've known you half their life.
A. Real listening at least means some things.
B. You can become a popular person.
C. Almost anyone, no matter how shy he is, will answer a question.
D. And how he answers will let you know how far you can go.
E. If you want to see that person again, don't keep it a secret.
F. It's polite to listen to others with a smile.
G. These people have something in common.
The Internet has opened up a whole new online world for us to meet, chat and go where we've never been before.
But just as in face to face communication, there are some rules of behavior that should be followed when on line. {#blank#}1{#/blank#} Imagine how you'd feel if you were in the other person's shoes. For anything you're about to send: ask yourself, “Would I say this to the person's face?” If the answer is no, rewrite and reread. {#blank#}2{#/blank#}

Having good manners yourself doesn't give you license to correct everyone else. {#blank#}5{#/blank#} At the same time, if you find you are wrong, be sure to correct yourself and apologize to those that you have offended（冒犯）. It is not polite to ask others personal questions such as their age, sex and marital(婚姻的) status.
