How to communicate with others is important.
First, choose a proper subject for your talk. For example, invite people to talk about their lives. Show an interest in hearing about a person's family, ideas, or goals. If a person seems uncomfortable sharing something personal, change the subject.
Second, give feedback(反馈) on what the person is talking about. Wait patiently for your turn to talk. Show that you want to listen to what others are saying. Before expressing your opinion, repeat what you heard. Try to express what you heard in your own words. This shows that you were listening.
Third, saying "Tell me more." is a great skill because it invites the other person to say more. If someone tells you that he's thinking of looking for a new job, you can simply reply by saying, "Tell me more." It shows people that you are truly interested in what they're going to say.
Last, asking for advice shows that you value someone else's opinion. you can ask your friend if he or she likes your new jacket or ask a friend how you should solve a problem. Asking for advice can make others feel important.

are you going to ?
I have been a taxi driver for over ten years. It's a good job most of the time. I meet a lot of people. I always work at night because there is too much traffic during the day. I live twenty miles outside London. I usually go to work at half past five in the afternoon and go back home at 2 in the morning.
One night I was taking a woman home from a party. She had her little dog with her. When she got to her house, she found that she had lost her keys. So I waited in the car with the dog while she climbed in through the window.
I waited and waited. After half an hour of ringing the bell, I decided to find out what was going on. I tied the dog to a tree and started to climb in through the window. Two policemen happened to be passing by. They thought I was a thief! Luckily the woman came down. She had gone to sleep and forgotten all about me and the dog.
—They are kind and helpful. They a big family.

The most positive (乐观的) person I have ever seen is my dad! He is so positive that I do not 1 hearing a single word from him which is related (相关的) to hopelessness!
Unlike most moms and dads, my dad never says things that make me feel 2 . He is always there to give me encouragement and help. 3 I do wrong things, he always tells me what’s right in a positive way. For example, if I am in 4 , he often tells me to open the books he bought me. Then he asks me to read the 5 that can help me with the problems I’m facing. After that, we have a 6 together.
Even though I’m not always a good kid, my dad 7 shouts or gets angry with me. I know that he’s 8 a day—a day when I grow up and understand things in my life.

Once upon a time, there was a garden in the village. Its owner was an old man. He had been away for several years to visit his friends. It was a large lovely garden with soft green grass and beautiful flowers. While the old man was away, some children came to play in the garden every afternoon. The birds in the garden sang so sweetly that the children used to stop their games to listen to them. For them, the time they spent there was the happiest they had ever had.
One day the old man came back. When he saw the children playing in his garden, he was very angry. "What are you doing here?" he shouted. "Nobody except myself is allowed to play in my garden." The children were terrified and ran away. Then spring came, but it was still winter in the old man’s garden. There were blossoms (花) and birds all over the village, except in the garden. The birds didn’t like singing in his garden, since there were no children." Why is spring arriving so late this year?" the old man thought. "How pretty it would be if it were spring now!" One morning, the old man was woken up by some sounds. He heard birds singing and children laughing. When he opened the window, he saw the birds sitting in the trees and the children running about happily. "I’m sure spring has come.
