When we meet someone for the first time, we often would like to talk about ourselves. We just want to show the best to others. But why not listen? Sometimes, listening is better than talking. Then how to be a good listener? Here are a few suggestions:
◆Look at the speaker. It shows you are listening carefully. It's also a good way to “talk” to your friend with your eyes.
◆Don't cut in. Give your friend enough time to say what she or he thinks. Don't stop your friend's words. Even if you want to say something, you should wait till your friend finishes.
◆ Try to understand. When you are listening, try to catch her or his feelings and ideas. It helps you know your friend better. And your friend will feel better about you. She or he may think you are the right person to talk with.
◆Show your ideas at the right time. "It’s interesting." "What happened next?" … These are useful when you are listening. And you can give advice when your friend asks for it.
It's never too late to become a good listener. It can change your life and the lives of the people in your life.

I kept my head 52 . I knew it was me. I broke it when I practiced 53 baseball. But should I tell the truth? If I did, I would be in trouble, I didn't have enough 54 . How could I afford to buy such an expensive window? I really didn't want to put up my hand, 55 at last I said. “I did it. I am sorry.” It was not 56 for me to say those words.
