可能很多人同外國人交流時，總會感到詞窮，然而如果總是談論同一個話題的話會顯得枯燥乏味，每當這樣的時候，有技巧的轉換話題是最好的補救方法。

1 That reminds me.

那倒提醒了我。

A：My mother called this afternoon. I was so glad to talk with her. I really miss her very much.

B: That reminds me. You have a package from her. They are holding it for you down at the front desk.

A：今天下午我媽來電話了，跟她說話我真高興，我真的太想她了。

B：哦，對了。你媽給你寄來了包裹，前臺幫你保管著。

2 By the way, …

順便說一句，

A: By the way, my teacher told me that she knew you.

B: I’m glad she still remembers me. We worked together a few years ago. How is she doing now?

A：順便說一下，我的老師說認識你。

B：我很高興她還記得我，我們幾年前是同事。她現在過得好嗎?

3 You know what?

你知道嗎?

A: You know what? I don’t really like that guy. I think he is sneaky.

B: How come? I think he’s a great guy. What makes you think so?
