阅读下面的短文，根据短文内容完成表格（每空词数不限）。

Being outgoing is good for your life. Those who are more outgoing like to meet lots of interesting people and have more fun in life. In fact, being outgoing is not so hard as you think. Even the shy people can be outgoing.

You can start becoming outgoing with your best friend or a group of friends. But the real challenge (挑战) comes when you meet strange (陌生的) people or new friends. Smile more, and usually they will return (回报) your smile. In this way, you may have some talks.

Start a talk. Just a simple “Hello” or “How is it going” is a good start. If you want to make interesting talks, you should read the news and prepare (准备) your views. Surf the Internet for new information and then keep that in mind.

The easiest way to become more outgoing is to go out. This is also the most important step. Go to a park, beach, club, party or any other place that you think can be fun, and you may make new friends there.
