1. I very like it . |2 x+ f- B6 `- u
I like it very much. + Z1 L$ Y6 G2 s6 l/ m

9 K/ o% Z' u$ ]7 w* U2. 这个价格对我挺合适的。
5 q3 J9 a. T" B# I( ?+ r& i: {: v: Y& A& l

; d6 J9 R, s7 ~% x- f6 t! Q/ Y5 o1 C
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
# T. D, [/ I: J2 U3 g0 ~
4 b8 u' ?8 T) O' ~programme is not suitable for children在这组句子中用后面的说法会更合适。
! T9 a, D/ S5 k# Z1 f: T4 J% A  `# z. S2 E5 k
3. 你是做什么工作的呢?What’s your job?
. ~. `7 {( m( r; N$ @4 v9 T/ N0 b' C& E* y( ]( n
Are you working at the moment?

$ Q: N$ w/ `7 J/ gNote:what’s your ) R1 w" R+ H! Z  s# d

/ w, u' D! R/ e; mjob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
+ L9 p. f  R  Q, F  h+ C. D) l8 ]0 `2 r6 z! c2 C7 \7 \8 ~
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
/ r% A& A1 L7 v( [& F7 K0 N% V! t
: d7 o/ c) |& U  O2 G1 I% I* Nline 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
4 z, B( g5 v/ w* I1 q# T3 ]0 p/ T- Z8 O' g- n1 h5 G
4. 用英语怎么说?How to say? & M) N4 Q8 _% V" f0 m$ l. C
; f- @$ n& J7 k9 x8 S
How do you say this in English?
5 |( y$ T  F! F+ J0 b5 j
% Y. d+ w4 ?0 |$ tNote: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 . d5 ?9 C$ p) i2 V. b8 @
+ I2 P2 L+ V- c  l6 |
spell that please?请问这个单词怎么读?How do you pronounce this word?
/ j; U, t, q' R! R5 l& D$ S7 I! _* K; [) j6 O
5. 明天我有事情要做。I have something to do tomorrow? " j1 s& Z8 {- U  b/ p. w# O

6 u" ]7 H7 N# v: C$ d2 KSorry but I am tied up all day tomorrow.
7 W2 c+ P9 A1 b- A3 D5 x0 e) {9 Z7 F7 |# c$ S
用I have something to 8 ^% t7 O! B$ _- Q
' t0 t2 b5 |# ~& D# d0 B, C0 q
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 4 M; Y9 H" Y$ Q. M  ?$ n* `

- u3 Q2 y- o% T6 o- zup.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 6 i4 p7 j8 A) a! K

2 S" r% ]  z8 ]" b7 Z0 z; ohave to stay at home.
* u6 G1 K. M% Q1 T# g' y4 w( ^, B( t3 X1 ]) n5 l  z, B
6. 我没有英文名。I haven’t English name.
6 H1 O9 ?' k1 c  ^% y: h3 e1 N3 \3 ^4 Y0 N: H5 a- t
I don’t have an English name.
8 {4 ~" g2 w' \0 I
: H4 L( w$ Q9 LNote: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。 9 Y  b1 z1 r; {1 Y' [7 Z
/ \. N" m0 O. Z$ g1 W2 l; j: S2 [* K/ E
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
. w; h, K$ x5 G( @3 N1 o( }- E- {. {$ }
brothers or sisters.我没有车。I don’t have a car. 5 Y; M2 M/ l0 k3 d8 t+ ^+ z

5 t) N7 O; |. Y) ~7. 我想我不行。I think I can’t.
) g9 ^2 }0 s' \; L% N
) O" G; a% [, O6 h3 ^! g; s4 ?I don’t think I can.
6 d! E" d" r% p3 F: k6 w9 ^% h. g) Q
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, " R& k- w$ f8 t. _9 V' q
. D: A2 z" b+ [
8. 我的舞也跳得不好。I don’t dance well too.
8 w2 F3 f6 ~/ [
0 I# L- W1 J2 vI am not a very good dancer either. ; O5 Z2 O: x5 M; }! j

3 u; l" G% ^( c9 h5 C! r  C  XNote: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 Z8 V0 y$ F; V  e/ \9 E: ]3 Z0 X. z6 q: n/ `
9. 现在几点钟了?What time is it now?
9 x  z4 A6 m$ [6 _7 Q8 M$ a4 T: V- J" J7 |; d/ o
What time is it, please?
( U( x# b. l& ]
/ n, V0 A% l# a8 I& Q; {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
/ S, g( S" d' S% D+ ~) i( B, a  }" _
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
. v  C, E6 y. o$ h
& c' q2 C5 b: }* ~; W- W* v4 Mdoing for time?这句话在有时间限制的时候特别合适
8 f; Z, ~9 z8 I
' h* ^' |0 I2 y1 H  b8 K3 [, h10. 我的英语很糟糕。My English is poor. ) t7 U0 T- ^; m! b+ Q2 p; L/ H

2 M) \+ {! a" a) ~2 R2 d5 vI am not 100% fluent, but at least I am improving.   I0 w) L3 c; Z9 a/ X

6 n8 s7 Z) `, \' y9 @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 8 u/ k2 z9 O& I* ?
4 }4 b, v* J: D6 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. ' F+ e/ g6 j: \9 b7 s4 E

: l# Q. p, ~; ~( J) i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。
5 s1 ^5 g: k% n. s
5 d0 o1 l! V6 ~; C$ l5 _4 n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。 ; W8 c6 ?" D/ _& V

$ }6 X0 B6 ]* {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. + r- D$ Q* ]# }. P; ^

( `# B! V% b' ^; \" v% W& }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 C/ @0 G* ?; l: V3 a/ j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 ' }- y" `) _7 G5 q' S8 I

course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 2 g. D% L& m! x: d9 j( g* G  X& h6 c

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

not也具挑衅的意味。正常情况下语气温和的说法是certainly not.
