Features: So far, most English conversation textbooks have been centered around situational dialogues. That is to say, they present pre-set scenarios and then have conversations based on the set plot within those scenarios. But can we really hold a one-minute conversation with foreigners just like that? No, we can't! To have even a one-minute conversation, or even further, a three-minute "chat" with foreigners, requires one to practice 1–3-minute conversations that match your own level. This means providing perfect conversation content for such chats, equivalent to the everyday 1–3-minute "topics" that foreigners discuss. Around these "topics," it becomes easy to start a "chat." This book is based on this starting point. It includes all the topics needed for "chat practice," reorganizing 72 of the most commonly used "dialogue themes" by foreigners. Topics like "talking about a three-minute conversation while slicing beef in a restaurant" are all compiled here. Additionally, it organizes essential vocabulary archives for each theme, structured in a 4-step format, allowing you to gradually master the ability to speak freely in a short time. It is a completely new type of English conversation book.
