打破沉默 英语谈话的开场白

英式开场白：天气不错，对吧？

British: 'Beautiful day, isn't it ?'

　　英国的天气变化莫测。因此，天气是英国人最关心的话题之一。谈论天气时有个简单的秘诀：无论你是否同意说话人的观点，都要回答“对”。这是因为英国人常以天气为开场白，以达成一致立场，继而转谈其他话题。

　　The weather in Britain is uNPRedictable. So, it's one of the topics the British care most about. And there's a simple rule governing weather-speak: Say, "Yes" whether you agree with the person's comment on the weather or not. That's because the British start a conversation using the weather so that they can find common ground and move on to something else。
