Have you ever crossed the road to avoid talking to someone you meet? Would you love to go to a party and talk confidently（自信地）to every guest？ And are you nervous about the idea of being at a social situation in another country? Don‘t worry—we can help you!

You needn‘t worry about situations like these if you have good social skills. And they are easy to learn. Here are a few ideas to help you. ◆Learn how to do small talk

Small talk is very important and prepares for more serious conversations. Be prepared! Have some low-risk（低风险） conversation openers ready. For example:

●think of a recent news story—not too serious, e. g. a story about a film star or sports star ●think of ―safe‖ things you can ask people‘s opinions about—music, sport, films, etc.

●think of topics that you would avoid if you were talking to strangers—and avoid talking about them! That way, you don‘t damage your confidence! ◆Develop your listening skills

Listening is a skill which most people don‘t have, but communication is a two-way process （过程）—it includes speaking and listening. Always remember—you won‘t impress（留下印象） people if you talk too much. Here are some ideas to make you a better listener: Do...

●show that you are listening by using encouraging noises and gestures——smiling, nodding, saying ―uh-huh‖ and ―OK‖, etc.

●keep good eye contact（交流）

●ask for more information to show your interest Don’t...

●look at your watch

●look away from the person who is talking to you ●change the subject

●finish other people‘s sentences for them

Always remember: Talk to a man about himself and he will speak to you for hours! ◆Learn the rules

If you go to a social situation in another country, remember that social rules can be different. In some countries, for example, you have to arrive on time at a party； in other countries, you don‘t need to. In most places, you don‘t have to take a gift to a party—but find out first! (336)

I was standing by the side of the road at 6:30 a.m. When the taxi took my 1 to the Philadelphia Airport, I was too 2 to speak. For the first time in my life, I was left my home by myself.

Luckily, I 4 in finding my way back safely. A few days later, I also made a few friends. However, I still felt alone. When I went to the Philadelphia Museum of Art with some of my friends, I was very 5 at the art, but they quickly ran past the art, heading towards the free food instead.

A worldwide food shortage is getting more and more serious for the lives of millions.

The period of cheap food is over. In Cameroon, 24 people have been killed in food riots（暴乱）since February. In the past month, there have been food riots in eight other countries.

Ban Ki-Moon said that higher food prices risked（冒险）sweeping away progress towards solving poverty（being poor）problems and could harm the world‘s growth and safety.

WHAT CAUSED THE PRICE RISES?

The rise in the price of crops may result from many things. For example, the sudden need of food crops for use in biofuels（生物燃料）, in both Europe and the United States. The rice growing land in countries such as the Philippines is being lost to industrialization and urbanization（城市化）, while the growing need for meat and dairy products is leading farmers to give up rice growing. Flooding and cold weather in riceproducing countries have also hit production.

WHO IS WORST INFLUENCED?

The food price rise hits the poor hardest. Food makes up about 10 to 20 percent of home spending in developed countries, but as much as 60 to 80 percent in developing countries.

The World Food Programme has warned that we could be living in a world of food supply imbalances（不平衡）until 2010 at least.

WHAT CAN WE DO ABOUT IT?

In the short term, farmers in the developed world are likely to be attracted（吸引）by high prices and try to grow more crops. The signs are that Europe‘s farmers will grow 13 percent more crops this year.

In the developing world, things are less certain, because the poorest in Africa and India have been selling their tools and their animals just to buy food.

For the poorest, recovery（恢复）is more difficult and help will be needed. The balance will finally be repaired—nearly half of the world‘s possible fanning land is unused. (312) 48．What worldwide problem is the passage talking about？

A．There‘re food riots in nine countries.

B．24 people have been killed since February. C．There‘s no enough food for millions of people.

D．Industrialization makes people give up rice growing. 49．Which is NOT the cause of food price rises?

A．Developed countries need crops for biofuels. B．Urbanization uses more farming land. C．Bad weather makes less food production. D．The farmers don‘t like to grow rice.

50．In most Chinese families, ________ percent of the home spending is on food.

A．10 B．20 C．30 D．70 51．What can we learn from the passage?

A．Europe‘s farmers will become much richer because of higher prices. B．The higher food prices may harm the world‘s growth and safety.

C．The food supply problem will disappear soon in the poorest countries. D．We need buy and store much food for the future at the moment.
