Title：Listening is more important than talking

Body：

Nowadays an old saying “Listening is more important than talking”comes into vogue. The saying tells us the true essence of communication with others in society, which means paying attention to others’opinion,is much more important than expressing one’s own ideas.

As for me, there are two reasons accounting for the correctness of this principle. To start with, listening shows our respect to others. In such an aggressive society, willingness to listen enables us to gain trust and friendship, which are the basic rules of interpersonal communication. A talkative person without the patience to listen to others is doomed to be alienated. Furthermore, listening can really benefit us. There is no denying that we ourselves are the people to make choices in our own life. However, a variety of ideas from others will definitely enrich our minds

and present some enlightenment to our future actions.

According to what is said above, listening truly outweighs talking on many occasions. As modern people, we need to master some communication skills. Only when we realize the importance of listening can we lead a better life.

As an old saying goes, “listening is more important than talking”. I couldn’t agree with the idea better, because on no occasions can we be good listeners instead of being good talkers.

In one aspect, it’s of vital importance that listening carefully when your teachers or classmates showing their opinions in class can make others feel delighted, and maybe you can harvest a large sum of methods of handling the same questions as soon as possible.

In another aspect, during the listening period, you can find the highlights and the errors easily. What you find can make you have a good command of the knowledge that you have learned recently. Furthermore, the more carefully you listen, the better you can talk. The reason why you can talk better than before is that you can pick up diversities of common sense and normal descriptions while listening. From where I stand, only when we listen more carefully than talking whether in classes or in conferences, can we be respected by all the people surrounding you at the present time.
