老杨团队,追求完美;客户至上,服务到位!
1. I very like it - ^: h# {# z) v6 R5 }: }5 c
I like it very much.
7 M; I& M* E2 |% W! y7 M( W' ^# y2 `% \) m4 \) b3 n
2. 这个价格对我挺合适的。
1 j4 J* a1 t0 Z. ^6 |% `  t: W7 J( |' k# d
The price is very suitable for me.
* h; I% U. L/ {+ j) s( B. O% c. b% U" F+ d" P- I
The price is right.
" ~1 [% N, k, T: s$ @( a2 o- C7 p$ P! V- X. A3 w6 l6 p. m4 v
Note:suitable(合适的、相配的)最常见的用法是以否定的形式出现在告示或通知上,如:下列节目儿童不宜。The following 9 d% w# M1 y  A; V7 y
; n% e. D( o, I( I6 L6 J6 ~
programme is not suitable for children在这组句子中用后面的说法会更合适。
9 p! S5 y' l: e1 t$ @6 E0 q% {9 }( U6 V, ?! f! `
3. 你是做什么工作的呢?What’s your job? % d1 d4 k# O: e  s* N( M
- m4 x, j8 F" d, @. v/ t- B1 D3 L
Are you working at the moment?
/ I' b/ I/ L/ M( W& g5 k
& Y% b1 c0 }8 t9 ?7 MNote:what’s your $ \! [/ \1 s0 K! k) h' j

- e5 S. m- d5 ~6 C, Njob这种说法难道也有毛病吗?是的。因为如果您的谈话对象刚刚失业,如此直接的问法会让对方有失面子,所以您要问:目前您是在上班吗?Are you working   G0 x2 e$ G0 \1 Z. u6 [8 C6 y

" Z: Y% L* N& g- [! F8 d- [) Gat the moment?接下来您才问:目前您在哪儿工作呢?Where are you working these days?或者您从事哪个行业呢?What
" Q: e0 s  V6 N7 I8 K- v
" I0 L; Z3 q- X: iline of work are you in?顺带说一下,回答这类问题时不妨说得具体一点,不要只是说经理或者秘书 2 f' h6 |' j. f; I7 h3 k
" g( k' G  I, w+ e5 X
4. 用英语怎么说?How to say?
  K* a: e( P) \
. u& s( _( O, h5 \$ Y. u7 m7 uHow do you say this in English?
! E0 F; _! T7 {  p1 G% N7 K3 x. H, v, C6 b( l& n
Note:How to say是在中国最为泛滥成灾的中国式英语之一,这决不是地道的英语说法。同样的句子有:请问这个词如何拼写?How do you 4 p; E$ Y- N, ]

( W; n5 Y. V. {2 i3 [% ~/ rspell that please?请问这个单词怎么读?How do you pronounce this word?
9 y1 y) G, x  A; j1 \! s1 A3 R' I/ G# m
5. 明天我有事情要做。I have something to do tomorrow?
5 D9 A0 l1 V0 l9 H3 H
0 @! X! G2 v8 Q* {Sorry but I am tied up all day tomorrow. ) |2 g3 ?( Q9 |4 O- l
8 d: L$ `, E& }% P
用I have something to 2 j# B/ x: ^  z0 S- o

- P& z) K+ Q4 B" ]) Y, E. {do来表示您很忙,这也完全是中国式的说法。因为每时每刻我们都有事情要做,躺在那里睡大觉也是事情。所以您可以说我很忙,脱不开身:I’m tied
1 A: I; M0 Z' e
- f" C* T" I/ r+ _8 w- [up.还有其他的说法:I’m I can’t make it at that time. I’d love to, but I can’t, I
5 S% d" K: e( U  O
1 H' Y  |8 k# n0 |1 ]9 |' }have to stay at home.
% r$ r- Q" j6 f+ n, ]
! N2 ?* F2 H6 N$ d& |2 t6. 我没有英文名。I haven’t English name. $ b% r2 i: D; C  \9 @* t
" W# A) o+ D) E9 d! h
I don’t have an English name.
$ i5 U+ q& T. H9 V+ C
9 z* r# Q0 {/ jNote:许多人讲英语犯这样的错误,从语法角度来分析,可能是语法功底欠缺,因为have在这里是实义动词,而并不是在现在完成时里面那个没有意义的助动词。所以,这句话由肯定句变成否定句要加助动词。 2 \$ S$ f2 t$ F) P& d- k+ k+ e2 E
, ?+ x! ~7 F! O# _+ J
明白道理是一回事,习惯是另一回事,请您再说几话:我没有钱;I don’t have any money.我没有兄弟姐妹;I don’t have any 9 ]$ G8 h7 x4 G$ {) F
1 ?, r9 Z" g5 _/ j( f% w9 e
brothers or sisters.我没有车。I don’t have a car.
# e' p6 m. C& m6 c6 Q) }$ t2 a5 ]& d; `5 K1 z. W- c9 Q
7. 我想我不行。I think I can’t. ; g3 q( u- c) ]# j( \  `1 Y
! p" K) ^6 w# q% u$ n7 v
I don’t think I can.
6 s3 ?& T" Q# |6 b7 P
9 N: m* t" J% K. a4 |" `Note:这一组然是个习惯问题,在语法上称为否定前置,这就是汉语里面说“我想我不会”的时候,英语里面总是说“我不认为我会”。以后您在说类似的英语句子的时候,只要您留心,也会习惯英语的说法的, 3 `, b8 f/ C" c" B4 i: v3 I  r
+ s$ r6 L- n7 z% M  G
8. 我的舞也跳得不好。I don’t dance well too. 8 [9 M$ @- }/ W. o5 a' R

4 }' \" F2 }/ O+ K- Z9 ^I am not a very good dancer either. # [% r+ h. i( s( w) L
( c& a( p6 E" l/ T+ x. N
Note:当我们说不擅长做什么事情的时候,英语里面通常用not good at something,英语的思维甚至直接踊跃到:我不是一个好的舞者。 2 t% M" P9 o1 b9 U! e2 f( t. t4 L

% X  P, S4 l2 A0 R3 _3 K9. 现在几点钟了?What time is it now? # {  o- E- l( w' |% R

5 o( Q+ X3 r, v. [8 |5 y6 eWhat time is it, please?   R; R/ p  F3 _/ s/ P" s

, l& e1 U) ~6 J0 k( ~Note:What time is it now这是一个直接从汉语翻译过的句子,讲英语的时候没有必要说now,因为您不可能问what time was it
: i: Z2 V( [9 c0 Q/ R  Z2 P; D5 j0 w; c; k6 g8 f' C' S, P1 M7 l
yesterday, 或者what time is it tommorow?所以符合英语习惯的说法是:请问现在几点了?还有一种说法是:How are we & W. @$ o/ A1 b0 {$ ?; @, c% ^

# e( T" M  I; J9 t& P' q: q) @doing for time?这句话在有时间限制的时候特别合适
' t* x+ F  l. ^' ]- Z: J' V9 E
$ ]& z, x! S! r4 k- i/ M* O& ?5 b. W10. 我的英语很糟糕。My English is poor.
3 y& Y9 u$ R6 _8 e- [- T* P% \2 ]) B* D3 G/ X
I am not 100% fluent, but at least I am improving. ; N+ r- b* w. E5 A3 M: L
4 J+ ?& d& U" w! X1 N8 {! T
Note:有人开玩笑说,全中国人最擅长的一句英文是:My English is poor.实话说,我从来没有遇到一个美国人对我说:My Chinese is - C6 }) O) k# B
+ N3 t% e0 S0 t  b; p, M8 X4 S4 f
poor. 无论他们的汉语是好是坏,他们会说: I am still having a few problem, but I getting better. 8 U7 C* ~! i6 M5 b7 r) c
9 L% ~9 y& I4 y! h/ T* u
当您告诉外国人,您的英语很poor,so what(那又怎么样呢),是要让别人当场施舍给我们一些英语呢,还是说我的英语不好,咱们不谈了吧。
/ O* _$ \" Q1 ^5 \1 k! X: h
3 O( H; B  g+ l$ k! M% W$ }另外一个更大的弊端是,一边不停的学英语,一边不停地说自己的英语很poor,这正像有个人一边给车胎充气,又一边在车胎上扎孔放气。 5 P1 A" Z1 c7 G- A, H5 a5 _! E
: Q1 c! F4 G6 d/ S7 \
我坚信,先不谈别的,如果您现在就苦下功夫,把这本薄薄的《英语54321》吃通吃透,您的英语水平立即就会迅速的提高。所以您再也不用说:我的英语很poor. " c' G, k" n: g8 ]5 G
( W' W5 J: `5 L% O7 q4 F" D3 J
您可以实事求事地说,我的英语还不算十分流利,但至少我在进步。 ) r- m2 [+ V9 ^3 P1 b9 p

Party.事实上,常常与party搭配的动词的come 或者go。如go a wild party,或者come to a Christmas Party。

1 Z0 u0 X1 ~; y4 Y4 D

: G3 V3 u; S3 W/ e7 \# s) X" O1 R$ X* Q' F5 z2 P+ ~# A
当然。Sure. / Certainly.(这种说法是正确的)   N! z5 K2 \, X/ N7 |2 r* F, e
# K1 [0 X5 p" P8 A
以英语为母语的人使用of course的频率要比中国的学生低得多,只有在回答一些众所周知的问题时才说of course。因为of - @! K* S2 s' K0 K3 ^- O+ `

7 U- y, E' e' Z$ A& ~5 g2 ncourse后面隐含的一句话是“当然我知道啦!难道我是一个傻瓜吗?”因此,of * j1 j8 V. k7 [3 j7 R
' [6 m& @/ d6 |# e; g7 Y$ x
course带有挑衅的意味。在交谈时,用sure或certainly效果会好得多。同时,of course ! W" q( {& A0 m# }: r1 D" t

8 i8 B2 c7 b" z6 Jnot也具挑衅的意味。正常情况下语气温和的说法是certainly not.
