今天聊什么

这些都是爱的表达

“喂，我是爸爸。闺女，你过得好吗？没什么事，就是给你打个电话。”
大部分的父母，尤其是与子女相隔千里的父母，跟子女打电话时的开场白好像总是“没什么事，就是给你打个电话。”难道父母真的是因为无聊、没事可做，才拨通了电话？

“没什么事，就是给你打个电话。”其实，这句话里的含义包括：“好长时间没见你了”“这周回家看看吧”“想你了”“我爱你”等等。
父母会对孩子说：“没什么事，就是给你打个电话。”
热恋中的情侣会说：“没什么事，就是想听听你的声音。”
好朋友会说：“没什么事，就是问问你周末有没有时间聚聚。”

“没什么，就是……”这句话好像没什么特别的含义，却又意义深刻。当说出这句话时，“没什么”其实意味着“有什么”。

学习重点——什么
1.这个计划没什么问题，可以发给客户了。
2.有什么不明白的地方，可以给我发邮件。
3.附近没有什么好吃的餐厅。
4.妈妈每次打电话时都会先说，没什么事，其实我知道她想我了。
5.我找你没什么特别的事，就是想请你帮我一个忙。

边听边说 More than Chinese Listening

第七集 这些都是爱的表达

The people you meet might respond to uncertainty differently than you. Consider seeing things from their point of view and adapting a little. Listen to this story of Nicole and Susan. 

Nicole likes routines and likes to plan in advance. Every Sunday she spends the afternoon and evening at her parents’ house. Every Monday she meets her best friend for lunch and every Monday, Wednesday and Friday mornings she goes to a café and reads. Having some control over what’s going to happen makes her feel safe. Then one day Nicole meets Susan. Susan never plans things in advance, is always late, and prefers to be flexible. She likes to make decisions based on how she’s feeling that day and feels that doing the same thing is limiting. Nicole tried to make plans to meet for coffee in advance, Susan sounds uninterested, but she never gives her definite answers. Her behavior really annoys Nicole. 

With people who don’t mind uncertainty …

Remember that you can learn a lot from the unknown and the unfamiliar.
Show flexibility.
For example:
For me, either way is fine.
Let me know what you’re comfortable with.


With people who avoid uncertainty …

Offer details when making decisions.
Provide a context with background information. 
For example:
The reason I do it this way is…
Let me explain why (I’m doing this).

Show you understand the importance of structure and plans. 
I understand the (structure/flexibility) is important / means a lot to you.
I can see why you (spend time on planning).
