Making some soup for a sick neighbor may seem like a little thing to you, but it will make your neighbor feel a lot better.Remember names.They say that the sweetest music to a persons ears is the sound of his or her own name.Be open-minded.Try to understand other peoples ways and ideas and learn something from them.Listen patiently.When someone is talking to you, look at him or her, listen carefully and say something when necessary.（1）What does the underlined sentence “No one can live a completely lonely life.” mean?
