Generally spoken, the relationship between students and people around us was good. We are getting on well with each other. Therefore, there still exist some problems. Some students lose his temper easily because of learning burden. They sometimes quarrel with others, that is very disappointing. In my opinion, we middle school students should make our efforts improve the situation. Firstly, we should respect for other people. Secondly, when we are not feeling happily, we can chat with our friends or teachers or even parents. It is likely that they can give us some reasonable advices. Last but not least, we can trying to make some changes in our way of life.

2 . How to Make Small Talks to Make You Happier

Small talks are the short conversations we have at parties, while we wait in line at the store, at family events or work. And small talks may make us happier, according to researchers from the University of Essex in Britain! However, some people are not good at small talks.     1    

Have some conversation starters ready.

If you have seen a really good movie or have read a really good book, you can talk about that. You can talk about something that you recently learned.     2    , it’s easy to start a conversation. You simply notice and comment on what’s going on around you. For example, if you are at a party and a song comes on that you like or that reminds you of something, you can talk about that.

Ask open-ended questions.

    3    . If you ask questions that need more details to answer, the conversation will go on longer. For example, if you are at a summer pool party, don’t ask a person if they like summer. Instead, ask them what they like or dislike about summer. So, instead of getting a one-word answer, you might have the chance to share in a memory.

Become a student.

Nobody knows everything.     4    , they bring up something about which you know nothing. So, tell them! This lets the other person become the teacher. They feel good about sharing their knowledge and you get to learn something. It’s a win-win situation.

D．Often we have to make small talk with family and friends
