Making a good conversation with a stranger can be difficult. Here are some ways to try if you don’t know what to do:
① Talk about a topic common to both of you. The topic can be the food or the weather. For example, “How do you like the food?” But keep it on the positive side!
②      “What’s keeping you busy these days?” is a good question if you are talking to a person who doesn’t have an office job.
③      For example, if you ask, “Where are you from?”, an interesting follow-up question might be, “What would your life be like if you still lived there?”
④ Ask getting-to-know-you questions. You can ask, “What are your favorite newspapers and magazines? What websites do you often visit?”
⑤ React (作出反应) to what a person is saying. If you are trying to make the conversation interesting, but the person never reacts, you will feel unhappy.      And if he offers some surprising information, react with surprise.
