Do you usually go to parties? Parties or other reunions give us the opportunity to meet friends or new people. When we meet someone for the first time, we can talk about the things we like the most in order to find if we have things in common. For example, you can talk about the best TV series, and bands. For instance, you can ask that person “Do you like the TV series Stranger things? Be open to different opinions, some people might not like the same things as you.
To express your opinion, you can say it's one of the best TV series you know. If this person doesn’t like Stranger Things, you can always change the subject to the best bands you know. For example, say that you know a good album by a famous band: Listen to the new album by the band “The Neighborhood”, they make the most incredible music.
After you highlight their qualities, people can also make comparisons. Maybe if they don’t like “The Neighborhood”, they believe that the lyrics that The Arctic Monkeys write are more interesting. So next time you go to a party, and you don’t know what to talk about, use any of these topics.
In this material, you’re going to learn how to make comparisons by highlighting differences and qualities in order to exchange information.
