Start a talk positively (积极地).Try to speak first. Simple greetings such as “Hello!”“How is it going?” and “It's a little cloudy today, isn't it?”are a good start. After that, you can talk more. For example, you can talk about the latest news. But you'd better read some news in newspapers and have your own ideas first. Or you may find that you won't have much to say. The best way to become outgoing is to go out. It is also a very important step. Usually those who like to do the same things can communicate (交流) better.
