Ⅳ. 根据短文内容，选择最佳答案。
One day, Tom's friend Daisy came to him for help. Instead of looking at the phone, he put it down, turned to face her and looked her in the eyes. He nodded from time to time to show he was following along and asked questions like “How did that make you feel?” to show he was fully into the talk. Tom was called an active listener. Active listening isn't just hearing words—it's a superpower that makes conversations more meaningful.
However, in today's world, people often forget that listening is just as important as talking. With busy schedules, it's easy to get distracted (分心的). But active listening helps in two big ways. First, it helps avoid mistakes. If a classmate explains a group project task, active listening helps you know what to do. Second, it helps build real trust. People feel valued when they are truly heard, which helps build up friendships and improves teamwork.
To practise active listening, follow some easy steps. Let others finish speaking, don't cut in. Repeat (重复) key points to make sure you have understood. Focus on listening instead of planning your reply and save your thoughts for later!
Next time you talk to family, friends or teachers, try listening with your full attention. When you truly focus on understanding rather than just hearing, you'll find that the quiet power of listening can build connections stronger than a thousand emojis (表情符号). Ready to become someone people love talking to? Your superpower starts when you choose to listen—truly listen—today.
