Even if you are naturally shy, these three tricks will help you to quickly build a new social circle in any new city.
1.Take pictures
One of the great things about taking pictures at an event or party is that it gives you an excuse to get in touch with a person.Everybody loves seeing pictures of themselves,and it’s very easy after taking a picture to say “If you’d like I can email it to you”.This can be the seed that leads to new connections.The next time you hear about a fun event email your new contacts to let them know about it.
2.Eat alone in public
You might feel self-conscious eating by yourself but it has an important benefit:you are much easier to approach when you are alone.People may be afraid of interrupting you or being rude if you are in a conversation with someone else.Bring a book or newspaper to read (this will make you feel less self-conscious).Plus,having an interesting book with you will give others an excuse to start a conversation if they’ve read it.
3.Join a class,sports team,or club
Yoga,salsa dancing,volleyball,Toastmasters (a public speaking club),a class for work,etc. Take up a new hobby or continue an old one!
These are all great places to meet new people,primarily because you will be forced to see the same people over and over again in the class.You will automatically make friends with them if you have a common interest and are forced to see each other again.
Tips:
* In the beginning.never turn down an invitation from someone,even if it’s something you wouldn’t normally do.
* Email your new friends with fun things to do instead of always asking what their plans are, If they have a better plan you can drop (放棄) yours and join them.This will help establish(建立) you as someone who is contributing value instead of just taking it (people want this in a friend) .
*Don’t let little things in life upset you or be a negative person.People don’t want to be around someone like that!
【小題1】 can give you an excuse to start new connections.
A.Taking pictures of others | B.Eating by yourself in public |
C.Reading interesting books | D.Joining group activities |
A.It helps you find out your interest and take up a new hobby. |

閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的A、B、C、D四個選項中,選出最佳選項,并在答題卡上將該項涂黑。
A straight-A student got a C in cooking class and didn't like it. She didn't like it so much that her dad filed a complaint in court about it. He says that the teacher, who is white, discriminated against(歧視) his daughter, who is black. He hopes to have her grade changed from a C to an A and asks for uncertain ecnomic damages.
Virginia Brown is in the ninth grade at Ashley High School. Since her first year in school, she has had perfect attendance and all her grades have been A's. Virginia's father said her heart was broken when she got the C.
"She cried the whole weekend," he said. "She wouldn't come out of her room. Her eyes were
red and puffy. My little girl hasn’t been this upset since her cat got killed by a car when she was 6 years old."

It seems that the Englishmen just cannot live without sports of some kind. A famous French humourist once said that this is because the English insist on behaving like children all their lives. Wherever you go in this country, you will see both children and grown-ups knocking a ball about with a stick or something, as if in Britain men shall always remain boys and women girls! Still, it can never be bad to get exercise, can it?
Taking all amateur (業(yè)余) and professional sports in Britain into consideration, there can be no doubt that football is at the top of the list. It is called soccer in the United States. The game originated (起源于) in Britain and was played in the Middle Ages or even earlier, though as an organized game, or "association football", it dates only from the beginning of the 19th century.
The next is rugby, which is called "football" in the United States. It is a kind of football played by two teams of fifteen players than eleven. In rugby, an oval-shaped ball is used which can be handled as well as kicked. It is a pretty rough game.
In summer, cricket is the most popular sport. In fact, it has sometimes been called the English national game. Most foreigners find the game rather slow or even boring, but it enjoys great popularity among the British.
Tennis rates high on the list, too. It was introduced into England from France in the 15th century, but it was from England that it spread to practically every country in the world Table tennis, or "ping-pong", surely is not played on a great scale as it is in China or Japan. Basketball and volleyball were introduced into Britain during the late 19th century from America and are gaining popularity. Horse-back riding, swimming, rowing and golf all attract a lot of people.
41.The main purpose of Paragraph 1 is to tell us that the English ___________.
A.a(chǎn)re all sports lovers B.behave like children
C.like to kick a ball around D.can remain young all their lives
42.According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true about football and rugby?
A.They differ in the shape of the ball.
B.They are played by different numbers of players.
C.They both can be handled.
D.They both can be kicked.
43.The game that was never played in Britain until the late 19th century is _________.
A.basketball B.tennis C.rugby D.football
