They may have small talk at parties, while waiting in line at the store, at family events or work. Its a way to say hi and express friendliness.Small talk is very useful. It can avoid uncomfortable silences and build stronger relationships. For example, when you first meet someone or talk to someone you dont know well, you can break the ice by making small talk. Small talk with a colleague(同事) about his child may help you to understand more of his life outside the office.In 2013, researchers from the University of Essex asked some people to make small talk in a study. They found small talk can make people happier. People who talked briefly(短暂地) with a waiter in a coffee shop felt happier than those who simply went in, ordered and left.However some people are not good at small talk. Here are some tips to improve your small-talking ability.Firstly, find common ground. When you have something similar with your speaking partner, that means you have something to talk about.Secondly, ask open-ended questions. They are suitable(合适的) for small talk. For example, if you ask visitors whether they like your city, they may simply say Yes. But if you ask What do you think of our city, they will have more freedom in how they answer.Thirdly, become a student. Nobody knows everything. So, as someone is answering one of your open-ended questions, 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. Its a win-win situation.Finally, practice makes perfect. Like anything, getting good at making small talk takes practice.If you make small talk in your native language, you might become happier. If you are making small talk using English, you will most surely improve your speaking and listening skills.（1）Do Americans often have small talk? （2）Why is small talk useful? （3）What did some researchers from the University of Essex find in 2013? （4）What kind of questions are suitable for small talk? （5）What does the writer tell us about small talk in the passage? 七、 书面表达 (共1题；共5分)10. （5分）假设下面是你的一位美国笔友所在学校的基本情况，请把表格中的信息用完整的句子表达出来，写一篇不少于60词的短文向你的同学们介绍美国中学生的校园生活。Time9:00 am4:00 pmMiddayHave lunch at school; Chat and listen to pop musicAfter-school activitiesHave a lot of time to doClassTwenty-five students in each class; Dont have to wear uniformsSchoolA library, a big football field and a swimming pool.HomeworkHalf an hour of homework第 12 页 共 12 页参考答案一、 完形填空 (共1题；共15分)1-1、二、 阅读理解 (共4题；共40分)2-1、2-2、2-3、2-4、3-1、3-2、3-3、4-1、4-2、4-3、4-4、4-5、5-1、5-2、5-3、5-4、5-5、三、 选词填空（词汇运用） (共1题；共5分)6-1、四、 单词拼写（词汇运用） (共1题；共10分)7-1、五、 语法填空 (共1题；共10分)8-1、六、 任务型阅读 (共1题；共5分)9-1、9-2、9-3、9-4、9-5、七、 书面表达 (共1题；共5分)10-1、
