24、How to Make Small Talk
There's nothing small about small talk. Many great friendships and relationships have started with small talk. Small talk helps you build a meaningful relationship with a person. 【1】 If you want to know how to master small talk，just follow these steps.
【2】If you want to make a person feel comfortable，the best thing to do is have an "open attitude" and direct your body toward that person without being too forceful. Just make eye contact，don't cross your arms，and face your shoulders toward that person. This will make the person feel like you're giving him all of your attention.
Put away your phone. There's nothing more annoying than talking to a person who is often checking his cellphone.
Though you should look eager（热切的）to talk to the person，don't look too eager. Don't lean so close that you may scare him away. 【3】
Give a friendly greeting. If you're seeing someone you already know，just say hello and greet her by her name，"Hi，Jen，it's good to see you." 【4】 If you don't know the person，introduce yourself first so you feel more confident and in control of the conversation.
【5】 Just a simple "I love your shoes-where did you get them？"can get you into a fun conversation about shoe shopping. Even if the praise doesn't lead anywhere，it will still make the person feel more appreciated before you start discussing other subjects.

25、Globalization is a difficult term to define because it has come to mean so many things. _______, the term refers to the trend toward countries joining together economically, through education, society and politics, and viewing themselves not only through their national _______ but also as part of the world as a whole. Globalization is said to bring people of all nations closer together, especially through a common medium like the economy or the Internet.
In our world, there are few places a person can’t get to within a day of travel, and few people a person can’t _______via telephone or Internet. Because of modern modes of travel and communication, citizens of a nation are more _______the world at large and may be influenced by other cultures in a variety of ways. Time and space matter less, and even language _______ are being overcome as people all over the world communicate through trade, social Internet forums, various media sources, and a variety of other ways.
Arguments against the process are more likely to come from people or nations who wish to resist trends in the global society. _______, a fundamentalist Islamic country may resist it because they see it as _______ to westernization — weakening the religious strength of a country and exposing its people to corrupting ideas. _______, globalization may be feared or a matter of concern to any country with strong isolationist policies. In the US, much of the arguments for resisting the process come from _______ groups.
Some people worry about how certain trends, such as outsourcing (外包), might affect the nation. ________exists that while outsourcing might benefit a nation which gets jobs, this takes jobs from the country or company that outsources. In this way, though the economy of the world is more ________, the economy of an individual nation might suffer.
Even though globalization may be a subject of argument, it’s highly unlikely to end any time soon. It would take mass destruction of all modern methods of communication and transport, in addition to all countries taking strong isolationist policies in order to ________ the trends in the world. This doesn’t mean that some nations or people won’t resist what they view as globalization, but you could compare this trend to a (n) ________ train.
