“Break the ice” is a
common English expression.
It means “to get comfortable
with someone.” There are
many ways to start talking to
someone new. I recommend
that you memorize only two
or three, so you don’t forget
them.
1
Life is about the people you meet and the things you create with them.
So go out and start creating.
Unknown
Task 1. Translate the words and expressions below
Task 2. Read the information translate it and summarize its main
points in English
Pick ones that you can use anywhere, anytime. Which ones sound
most natural to you? The most important thing is that you’re comfortable
saying them. Here’s the easiest one: just say hello and your name. Then,
if possible, shake hands.

Amy: Hello. I’m Amy.
(Offer your hand.)
Brian: Hello, I’m Brian.
(Shake hands.)
Amy: Nice to meet you.
It’s that easy. You can also break the ice by using other common
greetings like “good morning,” “good afternoon” and “good evening.”
Another good way to break the ice is to ask for very basic information.
This gives you a reason for starting the conversation.
Here are some examples:
Excuse me, do you know what time it is?
Sorry to bother you, but where is the meeting?
Excuse me, are you going to the restaurant?
Pick a topic that is happening currently, and that you actually want
or need information about.
2.1 Read the information below and memorize it
Another great ice breaker is a compliment. Find something you like
about them and tell them.
Be a little careful here when picking an object to compliment.
Don’t compliment them as a whole person, because they might be
offended or think it’s too forward (overly-friendly).
I love your dress.
You have a beautiful dog.
Is that your car? I really like it.
2.2 Look at you group mates and try to compliment some of them
You need to keep the conversation going. To do this, have more
simple questions ready. Like before, have three or four questions
memorized.
Questions are always better than comments, because they make the
other person talk, and this gives you time so that you can think of new
things to say.
6
2.3 Respond to the following questions:
How are you?
Where are you from?
What are you doing here? or What brings you here?
Are you having a good time?
If you aren’t confident in your English skills, it’s much easier to
listen to the other person than it is to speak.
Pay attention to the answers from your first questions and ask for
more details. People like talking about themselves, so this won’t be a
problem. Below are some sample conversations.
Amy: How are you?
Brian: A little tired.
Amy: Why is that?
Brian: I didn’t sleep well last night.
Amy: I’m sorry to hear that. What went wrong?
Brian: I’m a bit jet-lagged from my flight.
Amy: I bet. Where did you fly from?
Brian: I came from London last night.
Amy: That’s far! Was it a long flight?
Brian: Just a few hours. But I had a long layover in Frankfurt.
You can see how Amy keeps the conversation going each time by
asking Brian for more information. When she does this, she also learns
more about him.
Let’s look at another example:
Amy: Where are you from?
Brian: I’m from England.
Amy: Wow! That’s far! When did you arrive?
Brian: I flew in last night.
Amy: Was it a long flight?
Brian: Just a few hours. But I’m still feeling jet-lagged.
Amy: What’s the time difference?
7
We can see how this conversation is a little different, but the same
questions still work.
When we meet people, we usually have similar conversations to
introduce ourselves and get to know each other better. That’s why it’s
important to practice these introductions and memorize some of these
common questions.
Let’s look at one more example. Let’s say Amy and Brian are both
at a conference.
Amy: What are you doing here?
Brian: I’m here for the conference.
Amy: So am I. What company are you from?
Brian: I’m with the Sales team from Samsung.
Amy: That’s really interesting. Do you like it?
Brian: Most of the time, yes.
Amy: What do you like about it?
Brian: I get to travel to nice conferences like this!
When you’re traveling for business, asking what people do for
work is always a safe bet (выигрышная ставка). However, be careful to
keep the conversation positive. Don’t say anything bad about their work
in case they disagree with you!
Conversation isn’t always about asking questions.
Eventually, the people you’re talking to are going to ask you the
same questions that you’re asking them. Because of this, it’s very
important that you can answer these questions easily. Keep your answers
short and simple so you have less time to make mistakes.
2.4 Have answers ready for the following questions:
Where are you from?
What do you do?
What are you doing here?
Do you like your job?
How was your trip?
Are you having a good time?
What do you think of the weather?
What do you think of the movie / event / conference / restaurant?
8
Even when questions are specific, you can have a general response
prepared. Say something generally positive, and then add in more detail.
Adding the detail keeps the conversation interesting. Then you can ask a
question.
Example 1
Brian: What do you think of restaurant?
Amy: It’s really nice. I especially liked the fish. Did you?
Example 2
Brian: How do you find the conference?
Amy: It’s really interesting. I especially liked the first speaker.
What did you think?
Example 3
Brian: How was your trip?
Amy: It was mostly fine. I only had one layover. How was
yours?
Not all conversations are going to be good.
If you find you have nothing more to say or you’re not connecting
with the person you’re talking with, you need a way to leave politely.
Otherwise, there could be a lot of awkward silences. Here are a few key
lines for leaving politely:
Excuse me, I need to (find my friend / go to a meeting)
Well, it’s been lovely talking to you.
Best of luck.
Nice to meet you, Brian.
I hate to run off, but I need to go.
Let me give you my card before I go.
Enjoy your time here!
As you say these phrases, hold out your hand for a handshake,
making it clear that you’re ending the conversation.
You’re your own biggest judge.
9
Most people will be happy that you came and talked to them. Even
2
if you make a mistake, keep talking. People will remember your smile
and your confidence more than any small errors.
Finally, practice saying these expressions a few times at home or
with a friend so that when you meet someone new, you’ll be prepared.2
2.5 Discuss these questions with your partner
1. Where are you from? Where exactly?
2. What are you doing here?
3. What do you do?
4. Do you like your studies?
5. How was your trip?
6. Are you having a good time?
7. What do you think of the weather?
8. What do you think of the movie / event / conference / restaurant?
Task 3. Present yourself to your group mates. Use the tips below as a
plan.
1. Greet the others
2. Introduce yourself
3. Speak about your age
4. Tell what kind of person you are
5. Tell where you are from
6. Tell what do you do (your occupation is)
7. Tell what you are interested in (your hobbies are)
8. Tell what you like doing in your free time
9. Thank the others for their attention
Self-check Unit 1
1. How can you introduce yourself and your partner?
