一句真诚的问候搭配上一个温暖的三秒钟微笑是*基本也*有用的开场白。
1. “How are you doing today, miss?”
“小姐，今天过得怎么样?”
A genuine hello accompanied by a heartwarming, three second smile is one of the most basic, highly effective ice breakers there is.
一句真诚的问候搭配上一个温暖的三秒钟微笑是*基本也*有用的开场白。
Think about the people who say “good morning” or “howdy” to their neighbors. This simple greeting is usually followed up with “how are you” or “how are the kids?” Before long, the two parties are talking about their families and even favorite sports teams.
想想那些对邻居说“早上好”或者“你好”的人。这种简单的问候通常会得到“你好吗”或者“*们好吗”作为回应。很快，双方就开始谈论他们的家庭甚至*喜欢的球队了。
2. “Nice earrings!”
“你的耳环真漂亮!”
This comment represents a classic technique that is quite effective for starting a conversation. Regardless of whom you are talking to, saying something genuinely nice about their outfit, accessories or even mood will usually be received well.
这句评价代表了开场白中十分有用的一种经典技巧。不论你在和谁聊天，真诚地赞美一下他们的着装、配饰、甚至是心情，对方通常会很乐意接受。
The person receiving the compliment will thank you and possibly say something nice about you in return. In doing this, a dialogue begins. Keep the dialogue going by asking a question like “Where did you buy the earrings? I really like them.”
接受你赞美的人会向你表示感谢，可能还会对你说一些赞美的话作为回报。这样一来，一场对话就开始了。想要继续对话，可以问这样的问题，比如“你的耳环在哪里买的?我非常喜欢。”
3. “Does this shop always have such long queues?”
“这家商店门口总是要排这么长的队吗?”
By focusing on an unpleasant situation that you both find yourselves in and subtly complaining about it, you cleverly suck the other person into an unwitting pact that unites both of you against a common enemy.
关注某个你们共同身处的不愉快的场景并且不经意地抱怨，你就巧妙地把对方和自己拉到了一条阵线上，对抗一个共同的敌人。
4. “Chicago really is the windy city!”
“芝加哥确实是风之城啊!”
Yes. Talk about the weather. It may sound clichéd, but it works wonders in real life. People talk about the weather all the time—It’s a topic everyone has an opinion on. Think of how you have an opinion about what dress or fashion choice is right for different weather.
没错，谈论天气。听上去也许有点老套，但在现实中确实管用。人们总是在谈论天气——这是一个人人都可以发表观点的话题。你可以想想对于不同天气该如何穿衣搭配的观点。
Once the person responds, you can ease into the conversation with “small talk” like, “The wind is so strong; it nearly blew me over!”
一旦对方做出回应，你就可以很容易把谈话继续下去，比如“风太大了，就快把我吹跑了!”
5. “Oh, did you hear about…”
“你听没听说……”
Kick-start a conversation with a description of an interesting, entertaining and/or funny story.
描述一个有趣的、娱乐性的或者搞笑的故事作为开场白。
If your story is interesting enough, there really is no telling where it could take the ensuing dialogue and for how long you could stretch the conversation once your new friend gets on board.
如果你的故事足够有趣，就没必要担心你们的对话该如何继续或者继续多久了，只要你的新朋友被你的故事吸引就行。
6. “What kind of drink is that?
“你喝的是什么?”
People love eating and drinking.
人们喜欢吃吃喝喝。
When she replies, follow up with something like “Do you really like it?” or ” Can I buy you another?” Introduce yourself and don’t forget to flash your best charming smile.
如果她回答你了，可以继续问“你真的喜欢吗?”或者“我能再请你喝一杯吗?”自我介绍一下，别忘了展现你*迷人的微笑。
7. “That’s a lovely name; are you named after someone?”
“这个名字真好听， 是以某个人命名的吗?”
This works especially well in a workplace setting, business meeting or conference where people are wearing name tags. If she has an interesting name, walk up to her and say something like “Camille, lovely name. What’s the origin of the name?”
这句开场白尤其适用于工作场所、商务会议之类人们带着姓名胸牌的场合。如果她的名字很有意思，走上去对她说“卡米尔，可爱的名字，它的来历是什么呢?”
8. “Hello, do you work here?”
“你好，你在这里工作吗?”
This also works well at a workplace or business setting where people are wearing name tags. Even if you know the answer, ask whether he works there anyway.
这句同样适用于人们佩戴姓名胸牌的工作场所或商务场合。即使你知道答案，也要问问他是否在这里工作。
Follow up with related questions like “What do you do here?” “Have you been working here a long time?” “Do you like it here?” “What’s your favorite/worst part of your job?
接下来可以问一些相关的问题，比如“你在这里做什么工作?”“你在这里工作很久了吗?”“你喜欢这里吗?”“你*喜欢/*不喜欢这份工作哪一点?”
9. “People call me David, but you can call me TONIGHT.”
“人们叫我大卫，不过你今晚可以给我打电话。”
Okay, telling a joke is easier said than done. Jokes can be tricky, but they’re some of the best conversations starters you can throw at someone new. They help the other person see a witty, fun and likeable side of your personality.
确实，讲笑话说起来容易做起来难。讲笑话并不容易，但是和某人初次见面时，笑话是*好的开场白。它可以让对方看到你性格当中幽默、有趣、可爱的一面。
That said, unless you’re really confident about your joke-telling skills, it’s probably a good idea to avoid them or start with a self-deprecating joke. You can’t possibly offend yourself, can you?
虽然如此，除非你对自己讲笑话的技巧非常自信，否则*好还是不要讲，尤其是自我贬低型的笑话。你不太能冒犯自己吧，对吗?
10. “Excuse me, I just thought I should come over and talk to you.”
“打扰一下，我觉得我应该过来跟你聊聊。”
Sometimes the best and most fun ice breaker is honesty.
有时候*好也*有趣的开场白就是大实话。
Honesty really can be the best policy. Who doesn’t love a refreshing bout of honesty, anyway?
诚实确实是*佳法则。无论如何，谁不喜欢让人振奋的诚实出击呢?
