原文

This week at my school we held an international conference. Education experts from around the world came to our school and gave lectures. It was all very exciting to have so many guests from prestigious schools, but it also made me a little nervous. This is because I knew that I had to network. Networking is when you get to know someone in your job field. If you know this person, then you can work together or maybe they can help you get a good job. Networking is so important, but it can be pretty intimidating. You want to make a good first impression. You want to sound smart, hardworking and friendly. For me, this is uncomfortable, especially if the other person is very important!

這周我們學校召開了一次國際會議，來自全球各地的教育學家紛紛參會，並進行演講。眾多業內專家齊聚一堂，這令我十分的開心。同時，我也有些緊張，因為我知道我必須要與人交流。社交是指結識專業領域內的人士。如果你認識某個人，你們就有可能共事，或者他可能會給你介紹一份更好的工作。社交的確很重要，但有時也會讓人感到恐慌。你希望能留下一個好的第一印象，看起來聰明，勤奮，友善。對我來說，社交會讓我感到不安，尤其是面對一些重要的人士的時候。

When you are networking, there are some important things to remember. Be yourself. This will encourage the other person to open up too. When you get to know someone, you want to get to know the real person, just like they want to get to know the real you. Treat everyone like they are your friend. Be polite and try to get to know them as a person, not just as a business-person. You can do this by asking good questions. People like to talk about themselves and you can learn a lot about the person』s job and how you can work together.

當你開始建立社交網路的時候，一定要注意以下幾點。第一，要做自己，這將促使對方也打開心扉。當你結識一個人時，你希望了解的是一個真實的個體，同樣，他們也希望了解一個真實的你。其次，要把每個人都當做自己的朋友。我們要以禮待人，把對方當作一個擁有獨立人格的個體，而不是生意場上的人。你可以通過問對方問題來了解對方。人們大都喜歡談論自己，通過交談，你可以了解到對方的工作以及與其相處的方式。
