In most languages, people often start small talk after a greeting. Small talk means the little things we talk about at the start of a conversation. In English-speaking countries people often make small talk about the weather: “Nice day, isn’t it?” “Terrible weather, isn’t it?” But there is something special about small talk. It must be about something that both people have the same opinion about. The makes meeting people easier and more comfortable. People usually agree about the weather, so it is a safe topic for small talk. But people often disagree about religion(宗教) or politics(政治), so these are not suitable topics for small talk.

The topics for small talk also depend on where the conversation is taking place. At football matches, people make small talk about the game they are watching: “Great game, isn’t it?” At bus stops, people may comment about the transport system: “The bus service is terrible, isn’t it?”

Small talk is an important part of conversation in any languages. So when we learn a language, we should learn the vocabulary and the grammar as well as the social behavior of the people who speak it.

It is important to know what topics are “safe” to discuss with strangers. Topics which can be discussed freely are “small talk”.

Small talk is quite useful when first meeting others. The purpose(目的) of small talk is not to find out the answers to questions like “How are you?” or “Nice day, isn’t it?” The purpose of small talk is to know possible areas of interest or cooperation(合作).

Perhaps the safest of all small talk topics is the weather. Whether good or bad, a comment(评论) about the temperature or sky condition is never wrong. Commenting on the crowded traffic or the late bus, or high prices is also always right. Most people do not mind talking about their work, family, or school life, either.

Asking such questions as “How much do you weigh?” “How old are you?” or “How much do you earn?” are taboo(禁忌) in English.

1. Small talk is the topic that can be discussed _______________.
