1. I very like it ! ^* E( a% A, `$ d- M: X0 R' n. W
I like it very much.
4 {; X( K# S% S0 N4 Z; Y9 i/ {% x" Q: Z! m' u) Q, B6 Y7 @$ T
2. 这个价格对我挺合适的。
" J5 I) W% e( O: S4 G
3 ^" ~" a) M1 Z4 RThe price is very suitable for me.
6 W: c3 N$ c7 ~2 s1 h
7 B8 O0 F8 T/ l/ mThe price is right.
0 D9 U: U" h3 O' }7 f2 U
5 d' B1 t; V/ q7 `$ bNote: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
- f& |4 y# J: _( w# U  Z
; U8 l5 v( g7 w+ [3 F) dprogramme is not suitable for children在这组句子中用后面的说法会更合适。
2 D, Q& m, ~0 _$ G* [
! L9 V5 c5 r5 Z: k* y7 \! _4 @' V3. 你是做什么工作的呢?What’s your job? . X5 v( a( A% S# [2 q; y+ u0 r

9 Y' _/ ?' L0 M/ e4 V; DAre you working at the moment? & D7 |4 S/ X# e

7 c1 f, ]' N; i, i! bNote:what’s your
; [: b+ u$ ~3 `$ N2 p: L3 K3 q3 |% `) p; ~
job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
2 A$ I: M8 a' T) V8 m  L( a( A+ m6 {) W6 S" y8 Z
at 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 ( F2 k: z$ o# ~3 r" `

+ U1 ~6 w; k; [4 j) gline 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 " }0 o1 c! I) u% T3 a) L( X' J

0 O; Z0 P6 I- M. S6 \2 w& E: f# C4. 用英语怎么说?How to say?
) _7 K  S. z9 a- @8 u
9 t' h, T0 V; ?5 n4 YHow do you say this in English?
2 Y; b* N* a' z# k" B$ C0 b, D: B( Y8 X( m( m
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 ; H$ F$ _3 q1 ^7 r# `

! M$ Y- L  W  _# a, tspell that please?请问这个单词怎么读?How do you pronounce this word?
3 g, ^3 D9 B: C! a5 s8 g- C$ W# t1 s. k. |
5. 明天我有事情要做。I have something to do tomorrow? + R* M. n5 A: H3 |

5 X1 _6 V4 F3 b$ y3 iSorry but I am tied up all day tomorrow. 1 {6 D0 Z* r/ P1 b- O# E) Z7 q
6 }9 B' m2 |/ \% L
用I have something to
$ V" U) ]# k3 F. w+ d0 t6 p( V% {9 J- b0 C8 c9 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 3 h  C" k+ U! J6 U4 ^
7 ~+ F0 |5 ]& U$ f. V
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 * ]% u- `  v) Q6 b  ]- Y9 H1 E

' g- `, M4 ~, k" }have to stay at home.
" ]6 e' M2 k; ?' q$ p. {/ ~7 [3 l1 S' ?+ L$ s, I6 W1 s# e6 q& @
6. 我没有英文名。I haven’t English name.
7 _2 e7 F5 P6 _  i% s' _. m! ]% }% _6 ^+ R
I don’t have an English name.
9 B$ `$ e3 V! O, E: z/ p2 q: E8 Y, W( N# q4 M
Note: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。 1 K8 S$ N1 j' B7 C

2 g( ~# t8 k1 b# ]5 n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
* R8 O( ^. R  j- n+ {
3 G0 r# D9 e  e: [brothers or sisters.我没有车。I don’t have a car.
4 H6 O0 F' U# k$ ~6 h0 \
- Y: C5 I3 ~8 L  b- s  B( x( m7. 我想我不行。I think I can’t. ) a; D* N. ~, q/ m) D7 {1 w

" Q* J' t8 Y  ~I don’t think I can. ! b9 Z: R" T9 L0 F: X3 e
5 b/ x% k% W9 b* o
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, - j1 t, x9 S7 y  y4 O# T0 b8 g
* W: \  n8 J5 f+ e. L% P
8. 我的舞也跳得不好。I don’t dance well too.
5 o' y, u5 G% D' \# U0 O% {
' V* N0 t5 C) |( UI am not a very good dancer either. ( f4 {8 E. m7 D2 S/ M6 K" F
4 _1 b) Q4 B4 y& o
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。 : f! b4 y5 S( M- p
& @9 z/ w2 Z. t8 j& V
9. 现在几点钟了?What time is it now? 3 e) [5 M* U9 v: N0 \- D7 C
2 Z  J# h9 W) x: u/ o, W
What time is it, please?
# v# `1 |# a- E3 }+ E+ K" e/ a
7 H" I' h$ F3 B6 K3 QNote: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
' B3 ~; K3 D- F! `/ A/ d' U  A, T" _3 g' k6 \
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 ' b: k3 O8 O- Y3 l& K

6 x; ?8 h$ m5 k. s6 mdoing for time?这句话在有时间限制的时候特别合适 & a3 o1 s7 ^" n
3 {4 d; d7 t$ @4 S' H( D7 A  L
10. 我的英语很糟糕。My English is poor. & P7 R! p1 X! g5 S

( f7 y# v2 f( D) E) p, W5 oI am not 100% fluent, but at least I am improving.
. _. s3 v3 d7 Y, P: @+ O1 b
% ^  N% R) T6 y  o. E: eNote: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
( e& ~/ B2 Y9 J* A6 V+ g% s2 I) B- q3 @+ Z* ]: ?. a
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.   Q/ Y# _+ F, N7 ~" E
. x/ {+ |) r+ J% R9 U( {' H1 m4 \
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。
" y& z9 a9 i1 [$ l2 [5 t3 ?" R2 J- u1 y2 P: N! P8 d
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。
. P8 `$ d5 k# M1 a( q" i- }' A+ F1 E3 i1 }
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. 7 M# y- N5 x5 Y; D

3 b; O( |6 l$ p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。

Would you like to come to our party on Friday night? , i: |  {7 y+ u  Y/ k
# f+ J7 n: T" T/ @& H- u
Note:join往往是指参加俱乐部或者协会,如:join a health club; join the Communist
. `0 j! m# w3 D- @* r4 Z
, t# c8 q8 r* s4 V7 N# K1 H/ B  eParty.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。

0 |1 L1 e0 R! \) E2 ~! [) t7 Z4 h* _) W1 T
Note:I have no experience这句话听起来古里古怪,因为您只需要说:那方面我懂得不多,或者这方面我不在行,就行了。I am not

" A) v; z2 m+ Q2 ]% x当然。Sure. / Certainly.(这种说法是正确的) : s6 O6 O! ]0 i
; V  y& T0 S( b/ Z
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 " q2 q5 J5 {4 m0 a( H2 K- u+ o# k

2 S5 j1 k7 R8 x/ W2 e% k6 S2 \) u$ Rcourse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
# j2 A3 {1 c8 G$ K- l# x
/ m3 `# H! n9 L: k* W0 ncourse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
5 {- ~' R5 U/ J6 T' e/ m. A) J) x; N
not也具挑衅的意味。正常情况下语气温和的说法是certainly not. " u' d) |! N# R& J* a
