老杨团队,追求完美;客户至上,服务到位!
1. I very like it 6 K3 O- O1 ~9 h# E7 m
I like it very much.
4 W' h. L; F+ k  P1 j" [0 a, ?! [0 {0 |. r
2. 这个价格对我挺合适的。
( q- t/ J3 ~" h7 E8 ?1 r; ^6 \" ^5 B' B
The price is very suitable for me.
1 h' N3 y9 t# m' G) L. X$ b4 o4 |; O- W* X, N0 e& A% l
The price is right.
  X6 a& E, E. v3 ~# D$ f% W8 S4 ]
4 w& x0 z! z: U2 e3 y) GNote: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 . }5 \8 P3 D) E. p) ]: z) z
& B! S6 f6 }  r  i
programme is not suitable for children在这组句子中用后面的说法会更合适。 " F$ J- Y. _( d2 u+ e9 K5 j
# R$ R: y. F, }4 \! B
3. 你是做什么工作的呢?What’s your job? . u& c# H2 V" P2 i- y3 O
; o, I  I8 r6 G; a
Are you working at the moment?
5 a) z: j( W0 W$ ?; N9 }
7 a) G$ q; P1 i/ U4 ]( I3 eNote:what’s your
. Z. e! |: `9 p, a: @& l: a9 N5 o8 I
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 & k7 i! p8 f1 v8 D& g6 {

7 {+ e8 z4 H5 M3 D) L9 {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 - E. @4 C7 h3 o6 B5 I, h
0 S* b# W6 [+ x5 X3 j, j$ I
line 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
' N' r- d! \% p2 b( I1 P0 C1 G- N) C# c
4. 用英语怎么说?How to say? % p$ k) i  a; O. P3 A

( r' Y$ i$ K# A& ~! N$ \3 ~: \How do you say this in English?
& _2 T/ t: G& ]: S# f3 o) {0 u
; I1 t0 x/ ^. O+ `/ I2 M# v  w  {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 : u* a* C5 k  ^+ t
" \. j" S4 N1 N# Y. A4 C$ v
spell that please?请问这个单词怎么读?How do you pronounce this word? 2 R. R; c9 ~* D2 [# G

" x8 u: C0 f7 X. x- |! u5. 明天我有事情要做。I have something to do tomorrow? 3 i! E6 O( A3 ]
  f" l7 E/ B( @0 B8 n# X0 n
Sorry but I am tied up all day tomorrow. ! v/ j1 s* @7 X' f5 @2 |" F
8 o& ~6 ^4 }2 C3 b( _
用I have something to 6 ^4 R$ |2 p0 H/ o1 E

% @' u, Y6 l3 A7 Odo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
9 Y6 }: u% B5 g0 v/ T, r# f& i% {4 \' f1 J& m; g
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
/ z: S7 W6 M  Q* v8 m! n& T: B' e- [2 ?8 e
have to stay at home. 2 ~# N& w( W6 e6 d5 e
2 g4 v' P9 S$ H
6. 我没有英文名。I haven’t English name. % m/ B8 _' U5 Z. q2 F

0 W( `  x0 p9 O0 V8 h9 P  f/ cI don’t have an English name.
- `: G& _3 |9 J  j3 Z0 Q* e5 s9 Z1 c1 @! }$ T" S. z3 b2 y6 [
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。 * {& W* d4 \+ J% @, k
+ ], E, ^2 x) u1 `2 S0 }' `8 A
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
: r7 a7 ?4 b) v+ J- u* k! a3 o; Q2 R' r$ p, n3 k7 ~* T
brothers or sisters.我没有车。I don’t have a car.
0 W" Y- f( v$ c# U  r8 x, }; q5 c, W9 T3 Z7 C$ t% P4 q1 D: k
7. 我想我不行。I think I can’t. - t. s. D8 D5 g- M4 I' s
3 J1 r0 a# P9 d) u
I don’t think I can. - Z; Z0 B; S' B- S' `( _$ {
' V( R5 p& f4 h4 @9 y# e
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, / A# I, Y0 Y$ V- O: C2 V) U
! q0 F6 g& k$ \% ?
8. 我的舞也跳得不好。I don’t dance well too.
3 q5 t! v! r: a5 _. j/ K( o2 P) W5 n& ~; A3 H
I am not a very good dancer either. " [) n1 k0 p( e4 y

# ^: a  s( J# @6 Y6 {5 u  fNote: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。
9 J1 @2 n* |) B" Q7 s. E+ U/ n$ L) y" Y6 _! {: C; K
9. 现在几点钟了?What time is it now?
! O. W; d2 w( S. N  j" l7 O: v. T% A( @1 ?5 {( x- L% m
What time is it, please? ( H* a" p4 m* k. z3 _, M8 A

1 {# e! E% Y0 r& N, }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 * q4 O$ T& W- C, S

3 v" U. \- r  v& ryesterday, 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
- D. [( t9 t' y' V
  r+ w& v2 s! Ydoing for time?这句话在有时间限制的时候特别合适   c- t% {  N# U) u, P1 F4 H3 p

# U2 b/ s) Y, O6 S% P10. 我的英语很糟糕。My English is poor. " \; [- q6 ~+ y) K. ?
& H, ]7 j# H$ U* a3 y( X3 Q
I am not 100% fluent, but at least I am improving. 8 ~) ~( K8 D# C" |1 [
4 d4 ^% _9 O0 F% |. e2 S5 P' S! ]
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
& O" U+ e) Y! q3 q+ V7 G6 C  S
$ t2 _! N- C( t* ~3 G' kpoor. 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.
% G5 e2 z) `. O% ~, I0 n
' x5 n* C1 m6 v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。 8 Z: _; D; i/ _- [/ C
3 n: W; S; B7 U4 j1 k
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。 $ a# r9 I5 z  K! A1 R0 O' X' E! i/ w
. n8 W/ M9 q3 i9 K& T5 W
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.
% [2 W2 `) t, l3 I" K+ }4 t. Z  n% V. O4 V: y
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。 0 k7 h( D; \: p. L7 g$ u7 y9 y

11. 你愿意参加我们的晚会吗?Would you like to join our party on Friday?

Would you like to come to our party on Friday night?
) m) g( G8 J1 G* _( R+ Q' M0 X3 e: z3 e- i
Note:join往往是指参加俱乐部或者协会,如:join a health club; join the Communist
; R* q& [  Y3 ~* G
: j3 f/ W( g5 }. Y( z8 E; r; B. jParty.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。 ; v; O& k$ C- F

Will you be going back home for the Spring Festival? , w& g# g8 I/ }( J. Y9 V/ r
- W9 O: p$ [8 S/ Z2 h/ h
是的,我回去。Of course! (这一句是错的) # E: B- w* G( _7 ^
# _5 q& l/ j2 h1 G6 `5 c
当然。Sure. / Certainly.(这种说法是正确的) . c; B2 p0 ^3 U- j3 q! U. k# F- B6 m
/ ?; P/ b4 C4 j# U3 ~" B) x
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 ( Z% r! k6 B- n9 Z' F  }/ d5 e  }& |

4 u* w2 l+ r. Wcourse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
  n7 ?6 d/ P3 X% F3 Q  l% r
* a" U$ X1 k5 |! P9 B6 [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
& i% ?  c0 d( z( G4 |- Y# `7 r; v. T$ e8 s. P+ G6 J$ a% m% v
not也具挑衅的意味。正常情况下语气温和的说法是certainly not. 9 \9 \  ^# U# ^& Y  ~6 S6 D! a: k) T
