常用话题:
1.How was your flight or train ride? Perhaps the first question you would ask them, out of politeness.
旅途如何?这可能是你首先该问的问题,比较礼貌。
2.How is your hotel? If they have already checked into a hotel, you can ask if their accommodations are acceptable 2 to them. Just another polite question.
你的旅馆如何?如果他们已经入住的话,你可以问问他们觉得住宿是否可心,这又是一个比较礼貌的问题哦。
3.Do you play any sports? / Do you play golf? This is a good question to ask Western businessmen especially. Most of them do play golf - it has become very, very common in recent years. Others might play tennis, squash 3 or basketball. Most Western women do yoga or at least go to the gym.
你做什么运动吗?你打高尔夫吗?这个是可以问西方商务人士的很典型的话题。大多数西方商务人士都打高尔夫,近些年,高尔夫已经成为一项非常常见的运动。也有一些可能会打网球,壁球或者篮球的。大部分西方女士做瑜伽或者至少会去健身所运动。
4.How’s the weather like in your country? Whereabouts are you from?

5.Do you have children? That should be plenty of casual 4 conversation. American businessmen especially like to get down to business without too much small talk. After your meeting, you could go to a bar or pub 5 to get to know each other better. Your foreign friend will be more relaxed and more talkative in that situation
你有孩子吗?像这类轻松的话题还很多。美国商人特别喜欢直接进入商务话题,所以过多寒暄就不必了。你们会面之后,你们可以去酒吧或酒馆来进一步了解彼此。那时你的外国友人会更加放松,也更健谈些。
