Students often want to practice their English outside class. One of the best ways to practice your English
is to speak to a foreigner. This week's question comes from a student who is eager to start a conversation
with the foreigners he sees every day. One student asks, "Is it Okay to try to talk to foreigners I see in the
street?"
The answer is yes or no, but probably no! If you see a foreigner who looks lost, it is polite to ask him,
"May I help you?" But, otherwise, you should probably let them get on with their business. Situations,
however, do exist (存在) where it is quite all right to talk to foreigners. If a foreigner enters your school,
office, shop or restaurant, for instance (例如), feel free to ask him (for example):
— What is your name?
— Where do you come from?
— What do you think of Beijing?
— How long will you stay in Beijing?
There are also situations where it's Okay to talk to foreigners in public places. If you see a foreigner
alone in a restaurant, bar or coffee shop, it may be appropriate (合适的) to ask him or her:
— Is this seat free?
— Do you mind if I talk to you in English?
You can probably help them if they are new to China and if they are alone. You may be able to make them
feel more welcome.
After a few such questions, you should know whether this person wants to talk to you or not. If they ask
you similar questions, or if they give long, informative answers, you're in luck. If not, then give them their
privacy (独处). Talking to strangers is fun if you choose the right time and place. |
