Knowing how to communicate well needs very personal attention between you and another person; we should face it. Is there a better way to learn how to communicate successfully Yes, there is. Please follow the basic steps below.
　　Relax and breathe.
Whether it's a business meeting or a first date, the first thing you must do in order to communicate is to relax.
When you relax, you are in control. You control your reactions(反应) and your reactions do not control you. Breathing is central to relaxation. Take a few deep breaths and your body will begin to be more relaxed. This will help use what you have already known about how to communicate well.
　　Think and you will be prepared.
Have you heard the old saying, “Think before you speak.” Well, it rings true. By thinking ahead about how the conversation might flow(流畅), you will be better prepared, more relaxed and more confident.
　　Follow the flow of the conversation.
If you are uncomfortable, being silent will only make it worse and make the other person uncomfortable as well. So when all else fails, you should follow through with small talk until a common topic appears.
　　A good way to keep a conversation going is to ask the other person questions. People love to talk about themselves and if you do this, they will keep the conversation going, thinking very highly of you. Learning good communication skills is not something out of reach. If you make an effort, you will succeed.
(　　)31.If you want to communicate successfully, what should you do first
A.To follow the conversation. B.To relax yourself fully.
C.To take as many breaths as possible. D.To prepare the conversation well.

A.You will be good at communication if you reach out your hand.
B.Good communication skills can be learned if you try.
C.Not all people can learn good communication skills.
