5．Do you ever have such a time？You are at a party，but you know few people there.When others are happily talking，you feel like an outsider.In fact，many people have such a time.But there is a way to win people over—small talk.
Small talk is a light conversation.Although it doesn't usually have many details，it is the starting point of friendship.
In fact，small talk is not hard to make."How are you doing？""The weather is nice，isn't it？""Nice to meet you."These are all typical small talks.You have used these before，haven't you？This is usually how a conversation starts.
The next step is to talk about yourself.The step lets you find something that is the same as others.Also，it helps to move the conversation forward，"I'm in Class 2.My math teacher is Mr.Black."The other person will probably say："Oh，really？He is also my math teacjye.air.He is very strict..."See？It's easy，isn't it？
Then，when you want to make talks more different，you need to look for more topics.But you need to be careful about one thing：don't talk too much about yourself，or people may feel that you are a little self-centered.
At last，when it is time to say goodbye，let the person know that you are leaving.You can say something like this，"I am about to leave.It's been very nice talking with you."If you like you can exchange your telephone or QQ numbers.
"A good rule about having a successful small talk is that you don't have to be smart —just nice，"says Benardo J.Carducci，director of the Shyness Research Institute at Indiana University southeast.US，according to CNN.
