做任何事情都有适当、不适当的时机，机智就是要在适当时机做适当的事和说适当的话。机智和礼节有很密切的关系，一个人不可能只具备其中一种而缺少另一种特质，机智是一项无价的处世技巧，表现机智和缺乏机智，同样会让人看得见。

There is a right moment and a wrong moment for everything.Tact is the habit of doing and saying the right thing at the right moment.Tact is so closely related to courtesy that you cannot practice one without the other.It is an invaluable skill,just as noticeable for its absence as for its presence.

以下是缺乏机智时最常发生的情况：

Here is a list of the most common ways people show their lack of tact:

2.应该保持沉默的时候偏偏爱说话。

2.Speaking out of turn,when silence would be more appropriate.

3.打断别人的话。
