一般來(lái)說(shuō)，開(kāi)始對(duì)話比結(jié)束對(duì)話更容易,。禮貌地結(jié)束對(duì)話的最好方式是自然地結(jié)束對(duì)話——那就意味著你要看著他的眼睛,，微笑，和他/她堅(jiān)定地握手,，然后說(shuō)再見(jiàn),。這就是表示對(duì)話正式結(jié)束了。結(jié)束對(duì)話的其他方式是試圖抱歉地走開(kāi)并給別人留下一個(gè)“印象”,，這就表示你暗示稍后會(huì)聯(lián)系他們,。

手勢(shì)是禮貌地結(jié)束對(duì)話的另一種方式。例如,，你可以頻繁地看手表,，把包背在肩上，或者不打算再提出問(wèn)題,。有時(shí)候可以用一些傳統(tǒng)的表達(dá),，例如"I'd better let you go"（我最好讓你走”，這是結(jié)束對(duì)話的最好方式,，還可以讓別人帶著笑容離開(kāi),。）

這里有一組對(duì)話的例子，Jerry和Tom準(zhǔn)備要開(kāi)始交談,，但是Tom要去參加一個(gè)會(huì)議,。

Jerry: Hey Tom, how are you? （Tom,你好嗎,？)

Tom: I'm good! Thank you for asking! 我很好，謝謝你的問(wèn)候,！

Jerry: I can't believe you fell on your face yesterday. (Chuckling) 我無(wú)法相信你昨天摔了嘴啃地,。（偷笑）

Tom: Neither can I, but what can I say, my laces were untied. 我也無(wú)法相信。我的鞋帶松了,。

Jerry: (Laughing) But that explains why you fell so hard. You got up so quickly though, that was even more hilarious. It was like watching a James Bond movie gone wrong. （大笑）但是這解釋了你為什么摔得那么厲害,。你站起來(lái)太快了，所以更滑稽了,。就像看到James Bond的電影里的出錯(cuò)情節(jié)那樣,。

Tom: (Looks at the watch) I was hoping no one saw me! （看著手表）我希望沒(méi)人看見(jiàn)我！

Jerry: Are you kidding? We all saw you! What were you thinking not tying your shoelaces? 你在開(kāi)玩笑嗎,？我們都看見(jiàn)了,！你怎么不系鞋帶呢？

Tom: Listen, sorry, I would love to chat with you but I have a meeting to get to. 對(duì)不起,，我很想和你聊下去,，但是我還有一個(gè)會(huì)議要參加。

Jerry: Ok I'll see you soon then, I hope the meeting goes well.好的,，以后再見(jiàn),。祝你會(huì)議順利。<

Tom: Me too!!我也是!!

At the end of the day honesty might be the best policy. If you really have to be somewhere else, people will generally understand that the conversation has to end. 其實(shí),，坦誠(chéng)是最好的方法,。如果你真的要去別的地方，別人就會(huì)明白你要結(jié)束當(dāng)前的對(duì)話,。
