Q 8. Read the following passage cafefully:
Conversation is indeed the most easily teachable of all arts. All you need to do in order to become a
good conversationalist is to find a subject that interests you and your listeners. There are, for example,
numberless hobbies to talk about. But the important thing is that you must talk about other fellow's hobby
rather than your own. Therein lies the secret of your popularity. Talk to your friends about the things that
interest them, and you will get a reputation for good fellowship, charming wit, and a brilliant mind. There
is nothing that pleases people so much as your interest in their interest.
It is just as important to know what subject s to avoid and what subjects to select for good
conversation. If you don't want to be set down as a wet blanket or a bore, be careful to avoid certain
unpleasant subjects. Avoid talking about yourself, unless you are asked to do so. People are interested in
their own problems not in yours. Sickness or death bores everybody. The only one who willingly listens to
such talk is the doctor, but he gets paid for it.
To be a good conversationalist you must know not only what to say, but also how to say it. Be mentally
quick and witty. But don't hurt others with your wit. Finally try to avoid mannerism in your conversation.
Don't bite your lips or click your tongue, or roll your eyes or use your hands excessively as you speak.
Don't be like that Frenchman who said, "How can I talk if you hold my hand?"
A. On the basis of your understanding of the above passage make notes on it, using headings and
subheadings. Use recognisable abbreviations. Also supply an appropriate title to it.
