Never talk over people 永远不要打断别人
This demonstrates a real lack of respect. By talking over someone what you're basically saying is "I don't care what you're saying-what I have to say is more important."
打断别人是缺少尊重的表现。打断别人的同时，你也就基本标明了你的'立场：“我不在在乎你在讲什么，我要说的话要重要多了。”
Don't finish other people's sentences 不要替别人把话说完
I used to do this a lot thinking I was helpfully finishing people's sentences for them. Wrong. Research has shown by doing this you are dis-empowering the other person because you are taking control of the conversation, so bite your tongue!
我过去常常这么做，而且还觉得帮别人把话说完是帮了他们的忙。其实这样是不对的。研究表明，你这样做使得他人远离你们的交流，因为你正在逐步掌控整个对话。所以，请不要多话。
Paraphrase 复述别人的话
If you want to show that you have really understood someone, then paraphrasing a great tool. All you do is repeat back to someone what they have just said, before you comment yourself.
如果你想表明你真的听懂了别人所说的话，那么复述会是一个很好的方法。在表达自己观点之前，你所要做的就是将别人刚刚讲的内容复述一遍。
Listen actively 主动地去倾听
Focus on active listening instead of passive listening. The difference is that active listening means you engage and respond to the other person based on what they have said, passive listening is simply the act of listening with no response.
要专注于主动地倾听，而不是被动地倾听。这之间的差别在于，主动倾听意味着你要积极地思考别人所讲的话并作出回应，而被动倾听只是简单的听着而没有任何的响应。
Maintain eye contact 保持眼神的交流
By looking the other person in the eye, you are proving that you're interested in what they're saying. This also keeps you focused and less distracted.
通过保持眼神的接触，你也就表明了你对他人讲诉的内容很感兴趣。这也就使你能够保持专注，也更不容易分心。
