You don't want to be impolite by telling them to shut up, but you really want to get out of the conversation. Here are some ways to help you.
Use body language. While it may feel impolite, you could turn away, put your headphones on, and avoid looking at his or her eyes, which will show that you don't want to talk. This may save you from directly telling someone to stop talking.
Keep working on whatever activity you are doing. Get up and move around, be active and find little things to do instead of listening.
Interrupt them as soon as you can. Saying things like "I'd like to add something" or "If I could interrupt you for just a minute" will often let someone know that they are talking too much.
Lead the conversation. This is especially helpful when dealing with someone you often talk to. Let them know that you heard what they said and guide the conversation in a different direction.
Mention that you don't have a lot of time to talk. Expressions like "I would love to chat but I have to go for a movie right now" and "Today's not a great day to talk. I have a lot of tasks" will make you easily end the conversation.
Remember: It is a skill to back out of a conversation without saying "You are boring. Shut up."
(1)、How many suggestions does the writer mention in the text?A、Three. B、Four. C、Five. D、Six.(2)、Which of the following is the best way to make someone stop talking?A、Saying someone is boring. B、Getting up and finding something else to do. C、Looking at him or her and listening carefully. D、Leaving your headphones off and keep smiling.(3)、What does the underlined word "Interrupt" mean in Chinese?A、Leave B、Cut in C、Listen to D、Accept(4)、What can we know according to the text?A、We can end a conversation easily. B、Don't stop talking until someone ends it. C、To end a conversation politely, we need to get skills. D、It's impolite to guide a conversation in a different direction.(5)、What's the best title for the text?A、How to End a Conversation Politely B、Polite Ways to Start a Conversation C、How to Lead and Guide a Conversation D、Body Language Helps Express Well5. 配对阅读:左栏是五个人的情况,右栏是七个相应的活动介绍。请为每个人选择合适的活动。Li Hua, 31, comes from Shandong Province.

The Qingming Festival, which usually falls between April 4 and 6 each year, on the 108th day after the Winter Solstice e (冬至), is one of the 24 seasonal division points in the traditional Chinese calendar.
Qingming, strictly meaning "pure and bright", shows rising temperatures and increased rainfall at the start of spring. It always rains around Qingming, providing a typical scene for the festival. Some 1,200 years ago, a Chinese poem written by the great Tang Dynasty poet Du Mu illustrated (描述) a scene of Qingming:
A drizzlingrain falls like tears on the Mourning Day;
The mourner's heart is going to break on his way.
Where can a wineshop be found to drown his sad hours?
A cowherd points to a cot'mid apricot flowers.
The Qingming Festival in spring is the occasion for visiting ancestral graves(坟墓).Qing Ming is popularly connected with Jie Zitui, who lived in Shanxi province in 600B. C. To mark Jie, the lord Chong Er ordered all fires in every home to be put out on the anniversary of Jie's death. Thus began the "cold food feast", a day when no food could be cooked since no fire could be lit. The "cold food" festival falls on the eve of Qing Ming and is often considered as part of the QingMing Festival. As time passed, the Qing Ming Festival replaced the "cold food" festival. No matter what changes there are, one thing that will never change of Qing Ming is to remember one's elders by making a special effort to visit their graves, ashes or ancestral tablets.
(1)、When is the Qingming Festival?(2)、How is the weather around Qingming according to the passage?(3)、Which sentence probably means "路上行人欲断魂" in this passage?(4)、Who is Qing Ming popularly connected with?(5)、What is the thing unchanged of Qing Ming?八、书面表达(本题15分)
