Do you know how to get on well with people？Do you ever feel shy？What situation makes you feel shy？Do you sometimes feel that you don't know how to interest people and have conversations with them？Do people find an excuse to leave you as soon as they can？
   Try listening!Here is an example of mine．
   One evening last week，I was sitting with Hannah，and she said to me， "You are a great mom!" And I said， "Why do you say that suddenly？" She said， "Well，although you are always busy，you always stop to listen to me．"
Here is some advice about listening：
   ※ Show the other person that you are listening．
   ※ Look at them．
   ※ Smile and nod quite often．
   ※ Shake your head or raise your eyebrows if you don't follow what they are saying．
   ※ Don't tap your foot because this will show impatience．
   ※ Don't look at your watch unless you really have to know the time．If you show the impatience，then the other person won't make friends with you any more．
   A good listener has magic!A good listener can make people feel good，and is as important as a good talker at a party．But just listening is not enough．One should listen smartly by trying to find out what the other person would really like to communicate．
