Video chat is now the go-to outlet for many social distancers longing for social interaction.But having a successful fete isn't only a question of hopping on camera with friends and kicking off.Social grace is a big part of a successful virtual party — and etiquette doesn't go out the door just because you're in your pajamas in front of a camera. Introduce everyone to the group Gone are the days during which you can introduce yourself to new people at your leisure.Instead，the second you click 'Join Meeting'，you're pushed in front of potentially dozens of faces staring straight at you. This is particularly problematic if not everyone on the call knows each other — Zoom itself recommendort ice-breaking sessions for everyone to introduce themselves on meetings. "I like to use the wait room，" says Tamiko Zablith，founder of Minding Manners International. "For security reasons，it means outsiders don't come crashing into your meeting.But also，you can let people come in one at a time，and then you can take that time to introduce them to the group as well." Learn the art of the pause Another wildly confusing thing about Zoom parties：everyone has to talk one at a time.There's no chance for small groups to organically form，for joking talk to fill a room，or for guests to talk at the same time.The whole group，no matter how large，can only listen to one person at a time. That's why putting pauses in your speech is critical，especially since low internet speeds or weird audio may mean it's easy for someone to talk over someone else，drowning out what they have to say to the group. "If the internet is a bit unreliable，you have those unstable signals.If I keep rambling，and the other person starts，there's that delay，" says Zablith. "Work those pauses into your conversation." Know when to change backgrounds Using Zoom's backgrounds can actually be a courtesy to eliminate distractions behind you. Hiding those dirty dishes or pizza boxes，or obscuring other members of the household coming and going，eliminates distractions and makes the other people feel like they're getting your full attention. "Wouldn't it be better if that distraction just wasn't there？" Zablith says，pointing to the advantage of virtual backgrounds being able to hide anything unsightly behind you.For others，virtual backgrounds also provide a sense of comfort or normalcy to the audience. （1）According to the passage，which of the following is considered impolite？ A．To introduce everyone individually to the group. B．To use virtual backgrounds to avoid distraction. C．To put several pauses in your online speech. D．To keep silent when joining in the meeting. （2）According to Tamiko Zablith， . A．Internet speed matters little in Zoom parties B．the wait room makes it easy to introduce everybody C．for some，real room background has a comforting effect D．pauses in speaker's conversation may delay the conference （3）What is the purpose of the passage？ A．To attract more people to use Zoom. B．To explain how to maintain social manners. C．To offer guidance on Zoom social etiquette. D．To compare online meetings with offline ones.
