1. In some countries no major business is conducted without eye contact, requiring face-to-face conversation. 在有些国家里, 没有当面接触就做不成大生意, 需要面对面的交谈。
2. I kept the conversation going by asking for a full name and address "so we can send you tickets for reduced price readings." 为了使谈话不停地进行,我询问对方的全名和详细地址,"以便给您寄送优惠解读券。"
3. If one of my family happened to come to the front of the house in time to see me, of course the conversation would be rudely broken off. 如果正赶上家里人碰巧来到房前见到我,他们当然就会毫不客气地打断我们的交谈。
