Making small talk at parties

聚会上闲聊

Chances are good that, if you're feeling awkward about chatting with a bunch of impressive people you've never met, other people are feeling the same way.

如果你觉得与一大帮你从未见过的令人印象深刻的人聊天会有点尴尬，那很有可能他们也有同样的感受。

But as Marjorie Gubelmann, CEO of Vie Luxe, told Oprah.com: "Even if you won't know anyone and you're feeling intimidated, you must go. Do not stay home. So many people are afraid that no one will talk to them and they'll leave feeling awful - but has that ever happened to you?"

Vie Luxe的首席执行官Marjorie Gubelmann对Oprah.com说道："即使你一个人都不认识，你感到很害怕，你也必须参加聚会。不要闷在家里。很多人都担心没人找他们聊天，会不开心--但你遇到过这种情况吗？"

One solid way to improve your small-talk skills - and alleviate some of the pressure you feel - is simply to demonstrate interest in your conversation partner. Ask the person questions, let them talk about themselves, and allow them to teach you something.

提高聊天技巧的可靠方法--缓解你的压力--就是向聊天者表明你对他所说的内容很感兴趣。问他一些问题，让他们聊聊自己，让他们教会你一些东西。
