How is it done? 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. Almost anyone, no matter how shy he is, will answera question. And how he answers will let you know how far you can go.
Second, once good talkers have asked questions, they listen to the answers. And to find out what sort of person you are talking to, you really have to listen carefully and attentively.
Real listening at least means some things. First it means not to change the subject of conversation. 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 now to deal with the occasion of parting. If you want to see that person again, don't keep it a secret. Let people know what you feel, and they may walk away feeling as if they've known you half their life.
Asking questions might be a quite good and suitable way______.
A.for you to make more and more new friends
B.to begin your business talks
C.to get the conversation going smoothly
D.for you to make a deep and lasting impression on others

根据内容回答下列各题.
Not long ago, there lived in Auckland a working family who dreamed about a house of their own. Anyone then could read in the newspapers about the building companies who offered to put people into a new house 51 only a $1,000 deposit. Of course, the remainder had to be paid off with interest over a period of twenty years or so.
The worker and his wife hopefully went to one of these companies 52 this wonderful offer. And the man in the office said.“Yes, sure. You bring along $1,000 and we can 53 you with a new house.” So the worker and his wife had to work hard and in twelve months’ time they returned to the building man with $1,000. But the man in the office said, “Look, I’m sorry, 54 we’ll need $1,500 now. Costs have gone up since we saw you last, you know.”
The couple thought it over and decided it would not take very long to save the extra $500 if they worked hard. In six moths they worked 55 overtime and saved the $500 in spite of the high rent they had to pay for their flat. Back to the building man they 56 with their $1,500. But to their surprise he 57 the deposit was now $3,000. Now somewhat wiser, the worker said, “And the next time, I dare say we’ll find the deposit rising once more. How have we 58 save the extra $1,500?” “Well”, said the man, “I think we can stabilize the situation for about twelve months. By the time you come with $3,000, we will have had the house 59 for you.
The couple left, sad at heart as they saw their dream house 60 . By the time they had saved the extra $1.500, no doubt the deposit would have become still higher, maybe $5,000, then $10,000 and then…!

Analysts cite a variety of masons for this return to the nest. The marriage age is rising, a condition that makes home and its pleasantness particularly attractive to young people. A high divorce rate and a declining remarriage rate are sending economically pressed and emotionally hurt survivors back to parental shelters. For some, the expense of an away-from-home college education has become so excessively great that many students now attend local schools. Even after graduation, young people find their wings clipped by skyrocketing housing costs.
Living at home, says Knighton, a schoolteacher, continues to give security and moral support. Her mother agreed, "It's ridiculous for the kids to pay all that money for rent. It makes sense for kids to stay at home." But sharing the family home requires adjustments for all. There are the hassles over bathrooms, telephones and privacy. Some families, however, manage the delicate balancing act. But for others, it proves too difficult. Michelle Del Turco, 24, has been home three times — and left three times. "What I considered a social drink, my dad considered an alcohol problem," she explains. "He never liked anyone I dated, so I either had to hide away or meet them at friends' houses."
Just how long should adult children live with their parents before moving on? Most psychologists feel lengthy homecomings are a mistake. Children, struggling to establish separate identities, can end up with "a sense of inadequacy, defeat and failure." And aging parents, who should be enjoying some financial and personal freedom, find themselves stuck with responsibilities. Many agree that brief visits, however, can work beneficially.
According to the author, there was once a trend in the U.S.
A.for young adults to leave their parents and live independently.
B.for middle class young adults to stay with their parents:
C.for married young adults to move back home after a lengthy absence.
D.for young adults to get jobs nearby in order to live with their parents.
Don't Retire, Start a Micro Business
Retirem ent today is either something that people welcome, or dread. In the UK, the age to qualify for your pension seems to move further away with successive govenments. And with no legal retirement age in the UK, if you want to and your company agrees, you can keep working for as long as you like. Do you want to continue with your employm ent is the question many are asking. A realistic altemative is to start your own micro business.
As the cost of living continues to rise, many in the over 60 age group in particular are looking for altemative ways to make ends meet. But also, how they can take more control of their lives by creating porfolio careers or, staring micro businesses.
The gig economy continues to expand. This fledgling working environm ent continues to define its rules of engagement, but for many, the gig economy has opened a new way to eam an income on their tems. In a report 'Gig Economy Workers and the Future of Retirement', it is found that sixteen percent of Americans plan to take a gig job in their retirem ent. Similar numbers are likely in the UK For those who have no intention of retiring, it is using their business in a dffeent way: a micro business can ensure you have a comfortable retirem ent. If anyone is thinking of winding down his working lives, or that want to make a change, he is to start a new micro business now. Developing this enterprise over the next few years could lead to a healthy second income that could replace the money you will have available if you do fully retire. This is the approach many over 60s are taking as they often top surveys of new business owners. Indeed, the concept of the 'older entrepreneur' is fast becoming the nom, outstipping the often-quoted Mllennial group, as the most entrepreneurial.
