前段时间,我去参加了一次桥牌聚会。
可我不会打桥牌,刚好有一位女士也不会打,我们便一起聊天。
当她得知我曾在汤姆森先生从事广播事业之前,为了帮助汤姆森准备一些有关旅行栏目的演讲内容而特意到欧洲各地去旅行时,便对我说:“啊!
卡耐基先生,您能不能把您游览过的名胜古迹或美景讲给我听呢?”
我们刚坐到沙发上,她便告诉我,她和她的丈夫前不久刚从非洲旅行回来。
我说:“非洲!
那可是一个有趣的地方!
我一直梦想着能到那片土地去看看,可我只是在阿尔及尔待过24小时,便再没有去过非洲其他地方。
快给我讲讲吧,你真的去过那个伟大的国家吗?是吗?多么幸运啊!
我真是太羡慕你了!
请告诉我一些有关非洲的情形吧!”
随后,她绘声绘色地讲了整整45分钟。
她根本就没再问我到过欧洲哪些地方和在异地的所见所闻。
事实上,她根本不想听我讲旅行的事情,她唯一需要的不过是一个专注的倾听者,好让她借此机会讲述自己曾经到过的地方。
