We can learn a lot from good communication in our daily life. Part of the communication is unspoken. We sometimes show our feelings with our eyes, faces, bodies and attitudes(态度). Some personal qualities can make good communication, including appearance, ability to speak, beautiful voice, how to hold the interest of others, and so on.
What should we do so that our communication will be useful? Here are suggestions.
Firstly, you should be yourself. Successful people never change personal character from one situation to another. They’re the same whether they’re having a talk with their close friends or being interviewed for a job. They communicate with their whole being.
Secondly, whether you’re talking to one person or more, always remember to look at them. Don’t break eyes contact while talking. As you enter a room, move your eyes comfortably, and then look directly at those in the room and smile. This shows clearly that you are relaxed. Smiling is important. The best kind of smile is gentle and comfortable.
You should also get together information about other people. If you attend a meeting or an interview, don’t start throwing your opinions at once. Stop for a second. Be sure about what’s going on there. What’s the mood of the others — are they down, up, happy? Do they want to learn from you, or do they show any interest? If you can sense what’s happening to others, you will be better able to reach them. So, listen before you talk.
The fourth suggestion is that you get your energy up. Before the meeting, collect your thoughts about it. You walk calmly through the doorway. Pay attention to the person you are meeting to find out what he is interested in. Properly collected energy comes across when you sincerely believe something. Always be confident. The audience(观众) may disagree with you, but they can’t question your belief.
Lastly, I would like to tell you that you should not be too serious. That is to lighten up. Take a good hard look at yourself. Do you say “I” too often? Do you complain often? If you answered yes to even one of the two questions, you are nervous and need to be more relaxed.

The most common form of public transportation is the bus. They provide transportation service in cities and towns even to countryside around the city. Also, special buses can be chartered (包租) for trips to mountains to lakes, and to nearby places of interest. But usually they can't run as fast as you want.
Undergrounds are mostly found in larger cities, such as New York, London, Beijing and so on. The underground is a underground system of high-speed trains. The world's first system was built in London. Underground trains move more quickly than buses. They, too, are cheap and help solve city traffic problems. But they are often crowed and noisy.
Taxis are more expensive than buses or underground trains, but they will drive you to the place you want in the shortest time possibly. Taxis are suitable if you are in a hurry or if you are taking a number of handbags or packages.
If you ever visit a big city in another country, you will probably have no trouble getting around. Like many people, of course, transportation will be your own two legs!
