What is small talk? It means that the conversation is about some little things, which are not important. You can make a small talk while waiting in line at the store, or waiting for the bus or the elevator. Though the topics in small talk are not important, small talk itself is very important. It makes people relaxed, it breaks the silence, it shows friendliness(友誼) and good manners(行為), and it makes the time quickly.
In small talk, it is important to remember to smile and keep the conversation relaxed. It’s also good to show a sense of humor(幽默). You can talk about the weather, an interesting story in the news or on TV, a sports event, a play or a movie, or you can ask those parents about their new babies.
What shouldn’t you talk about? Well, you shouldn’t talk about politics(政治) or religion(宗教). Also, you should not talk too long on a topic(話題) or ask questions that are too personal. Give other people a chance to speak and listen to what they say.

Most people want to be happy, but few know how to find happiness. Money and success alone do not bring lasting happiness. Aristotle, a Greek thinker, said,“Happiness depends on ourselves.”In other words, we make our own happiness. Here are a few suggestions to help you be happier.
The first secret of happiness is to enjoy the simple things in life. Too often, we spend too much time thinking about the future－for example, getting into college or getting a good job－that we fail to enjoy the present. You should enjoy life’s simple pleasures, such as reading a good book, listening to your favorite music, or spending time with close friends. People who have several close friends often live happier and healthier lives.
Another secret to living a happy life is to be active. Many people go dancing or play sports. People can forget about their problems and only think about the activities.
Finally, many people find happiness in helping others. Studies show that people feel good when they spend their time helping others. If you want to feel happier, do good things for someone. You can help a friend with his or her studies, go shopping to buy food for an elderly person, or simply help out around the house by washing the dishes.
