怎样和美国人打开话匣，拉近距离？和他们交谈时该注意些什么？要去美国留学、居住或者想与美国人交朋友的童鞋们赶紧看过来！小编特意为大家收集了一些美国人所乐于交谈及忌讳谈到的话题，希望能帮到大家哦~

1. Talk about locations: Americans love to talk about locations. When speaking to a stranger, ask them where they are from and then make a connection (n.联系) with that place .For example:"Oh, I have a friend who studied in Los Angeles. He says it's a beautiful place to live."Most Americans will then willingly (adv.欣然地；乐意地) talk about their experiences living or visiting that particular city or area.
& Z/ Y$ [6 Y4 h% V0 H谈论地点：美国人喜欢谈论地点。和陌生人说话的时候，可以问问他们从哪里来然后找到自己跟那个地方的联系。比如可以说：“啊，我有个朋友在洛杉矶学习，他说那地方很漂亮。”这时大部分美国人就会很愿意谈起他们在那个特殊城市或区域学习游览过的经历。

2. Talk about work: Americans commonly ask “What do you do”. It’s not considered impolite (as in some countries) and is a popular topic of discussion between strangers.
谈论工作：美国人通常会问“What do you do-”在某些国家会被认为这是不礼貌的，但美国不是的，是陌生人之间聊天的一个流行话题。

3. Talk about sports: Americans love sports! However, they love American sports. When speaking about football, most Americans understand" American Football", not soccer.
- W* b2 O& A% {4 g; Q谈论运动：美国人超爱运动!不过，他们喜欢美国的运动。如果说到football，大部分美国人会理解成橄榄球而不是足球。

4. Be careful when expressing (v.表达) ideas about race, religion, politics or other sensitive topics: The United States is a multi-cultural society. Talking about sensitive topics like religion, belief or politics, is often avoided (v.避免) in order to be sure not to offend someone of a different belief system. This is often referred to as being “politically correct".
说到种族、宗教、政治或者其他敏感话题要小心：美国是一个多文化的社会。像宗教、信仰或政治之类的敏感话题通常都不会在谈话中提及，以免冒犯别人。这就是经常被提到的“政治正确”。

5. Don't hold hands: Same sex friends do not usually hold hands or put their arms around each other in public in the United States.
别拉手：在美国，同性朋友们在公共场合不太会手拉手或者挽住对方的胳膊。

6. Smoking is Out!! Smoking, especially in public places, is strongly disapproved of (disapprove of 动词词组，不赞成) by most Americans in the modern United States.
吸烟很老土!!在当代美国，吸烟，尤其是在公共场合吸烟，是非常不被大众接受的行为。
