【解析】【分析】本文本文是一篇议论文，我们谈话时最大的问题之一是尴尬的沉默。

遇到这种情况是很不舒服的。

作者就这一论点表达了自己的观点。

（1）考查推理判断。

根据第一段中的“ButlaterIlearnedthatonceyouknowhowtokeepthosewordsflowing,youcanmeetandtalktoanyoneyoulike,whichhelpscreategreatpossibilitiesforfriendship,funandsharedactivities”可知如果在谈话时能打破尴尬的沉默，知道说什么，怎么说，就能为友谊，乐趣和共享活动创造巨大的可能性，就能丰富社交生活。

故选C。

（2）考查推理判断。

根据第三段中的“Itisthereflex（习惯性思维）thatallowsyoutosaywhatevergoesoninyourmind.It'sfuntorealizethatyou'reallowedtosaywhateverisonyourmind.”可知习惯性思维让我们表达我们内心所想，意识到你可以说出你心里想说的话，是很有趣的。

所以在和别人交流时我们应该自由表达。

故选C。

（3）考查推理判断。

根据第四段中的“Allofthe‘Oh!

That'sinteresting…’‘Hmm,I'veneverheardofthat’‘Hmm,cool!

‘expressionsarereactionary（保守的）bitsofconversationthatprovetotheotherpersonthatyou'rereallylistening.和ifyoushowsomeinterest,they'llhangaroundandwanttotalktoyouevenmore.”听者的赞美之词和他们有兴趣想了解更多的好奇心和关注，是说者最关心的。

故选D。

（4）考查词义猜测。

根据最后一段中的“Themoreinteresting,strangerormorefrighteningtheyare,thehardertheyaretoforget.”可知故事越有趣或越惊险，就越吸引人，听者就越难忘记，这说明了故事在谈话中的重要性。

划线词语所在的句子指每个人都知道故事会让对话变得生动有趣，“juice-upconversations”指让对话变得生动有趣，与B项同义。

故选B。
