We can communicate with other people in many different ways. We can talk and write, and we can send messages with our hands and faces. There is also the phone (including the mobile!), the fax and e-mail. Television, film, painting, and photography can also communicate ideas.

Developing good communication skills is an important part of living a fulfilled life (полноценная жизнь) because:

• The average worker spends 50 percent of his or her time communicating.

• Business success is 85 percent dependent on effective communication and interpersonal skills (способность строить отношения и взаимопонимание с людьми).

• Forty-five percent of time spent communicating is listening.

• Writing represents nine percent of communication time.

• One-fourth of all workplace mistakes are the result of poor communication.

No matter (независимо от) what your age, background, or experience, effective communication is a skill you can learn.

Obviously, it is impossible to tell someone how to have a conversation, but here are some things that help:

• Ask questions.

• Show that you are interested.

• Don’t just answer yes or no.

• Try to add a comment of your own.

• Don’t let the conversation stop.

Exercise. 1. Scan the text.

Обстоятельство может стоять также в начале предложения (0 место). Определение является единственным членом предложения, который не имеет фиксированного положения. Оно стоит с существительным, к которому относится.
