Answer the questions （根據以下內容回答問題）
Kayla was excited. She was beginning a pottery（陶瓷）class. Kayla was interested in pottery. She had seen pictures of American Indian pottery at school. That was when she decided she loved it. So now she was going to learn how to make pottery herself.
During the first class, Kayla and the other kids leaned about safety. There were several sharp tools in the classroom. There was also a kiln, or over, that got very hot. So everyone had to learn what the safety rules were. Then, their teacher showed them how to work the clay（粘土）. For the next few classes,Kayla and the other kids practiced different styles of pottery.
Finally, it was time for the students to make their own pottery. Kayla decided to make a matching plate and cup. She got the clay she needed and used a tool called a potter’s wheel to fashion the clay into the shape of a plate and a cup. Then, Kayla used some tools to give the plate and cup their final shapes. She made a handle for the cup, too. When the cup and plate were shaped, they were left to dry.
When the plate and cup were dry, it was time to paint them. Kayla used paints for clay and created her picture. When Kayla was finished, the paint was allowed to dry. It was then time to fire, or bake, the plate and cup in the kiln. This would take some time, so the teacher said that they would see the pottery at the next class. And it was! Kayla’s cup and plate turned out beautifully, and she couldn’t wait to show it to her parents.

Red is a symbol of good luck in many cultures. In China, children are given money in a red envelope to bring good luck in the New Year. For many nations, blue is a symbol of protection and religious (宗教的)beliefs. Greek people often wear a blue necklace hoping to protect themselves against evils.

Small talk
Americans often have short conversations, called small talk, about unimportant things with strangers or people they know but not very well. They may have small talk at parties, while waiting in line at the store, at family events or work. It's a way to say hi and express friendliness.
Small talk is very useful. It can avoid uncomfortable silences and build stronger relationships. For example, when you first meet someone or talk to someone you don't know well, you can break the ice by making small talk. Small talk with a colleague(同事) about his child may help you to understand more of his life outside the office.
In 2013 , researchers from the University of Essex asked some people to make small talk in a study. They found small talk can make people happier. People who talked briefly(短暫地) with a waiter in a coffee shop felt happier than those who simply went in ,ordered and left.
However some people are not good at small talk. Here are some tips to improve your small-talking ability.
Firstly, find common ground. When you have something similar with your speaking partner, that means you have something to talk about.
Secondly, ask open-ended questions. They are suitable(合適的) for small talk. For example, if you ask visitors whether they like your city, they may simply say "Yes. "But if you ask "What do you think of our city," they will have more freedom in how they answer.
Thirdly, become a student. Nobody knows everything. So, as someone is answering one of your open-ended questions, they bring up something about which you know nothing. So, tell them! This lets the other person become the teacher. They feel good about sharing their knowledge and you get to learn something. It's a win-win situation.
Finally, practice makes perfect. Like anything, getting good at making small talk takes practice.
If you make small talk in your native language, you might become happier. If you are making small talk using English, you will most surely improve your speaking and listening skills.
1.Do Americans often have small talk?
2.Why is small talk useful?
3.What did some researchers from the University of Essex find in 2013?
4.What kind of questions are suitable for small talk?
5.What does the writer tell us about small talk in the passage?
