Make Small Talk with New People.

1. In pairs, write four good questions to ask when you meet someone new in the following situations:

• Situation 1: You are a new student in the class. You don't know anybody here.

• Situation 2: You are at the bus stop. Your bus will arrive in 10 minutes.

• Situation 3: You are waiting in line to buy movie tickets at a cinema.

2. Join another pair and ask and answer your questions. Are all of the questions good for making small talk?
