老杨团队,追求完美;客户至上,服务到位!
1. I very like it 8 I, x! f. p# T  S( K% I6 Z, f
I like it very much. ) R3 _$ M& G8 @' s/ P# ^6 e

2. 这个价格对我挺合适的。
; C' o+ Z0 t/ {7 V; m& Y8 M* i4 L. I# T: c. [& o3 f
The price is very suitable for me. " A& q6 S0 P/ z  q: o( r, [

) |. a$ i2 V) j: w! iThe price is right.
9 V4 X: F$ J' k: t8 M
2 F& ]0 d; \: e( g% o: KNote: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
6 K  c$ j+ d9 x5 k4 D6 N" W1 V7 b
programme is not suitable for children在这组句子中用后面的说法会更合适。
/ j' V9 e% O. j4 [
4 n/ t: Q2 n7 p4 \3. 你是做什么工作的呢?What’s your job?
" t4 y* u6 Q' G7 E* V8 f' |! b, H3 `* N7 p: {2 u
Are you working at the moment? 9 K+ H: i5 ?8 G5 S

Note:what’s your
$ j7 }7 V! k2 \) B) `% B  t3 o' [. D5 ~9 O4 T; N0 ~& N5 L
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
- e5 T% Y, Y, O: k( a. w7 i, P6 {; v
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
! H1 l2 R; ?6 V( j9 e# v3 g3 H7 q1 H% @/ l' d1 e1 S3 q4 g6 a
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 4 c8 H8 C5 S( ~
: C% G: D* E. h4 @/ g
4. 用英语怎么说?How to say? 4 c# k/ U& q" R* U( D( s

/ Y! X1 r' Q/ kHow do you say this in English?
$ n3 w. R9 n" d+ Y
; j, u$ G) K& e1 [3 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 * M5 X: W( [2 ~

' f' \; _% J! l5 s% E( Q0 fspell that please?请问这个单词怎么读?How do you pronounce this word?
2 D- ~! u& h" F" G) G4 p+ |2 T+ A2 ?5 s8 r# l. g4 A
5. 明天我有事情要做。I have something to do tomorrow? 6 ], @5 V1 r7 ?- Q8 i* U5 X

* b$ H2 C0 `# ySorry but I am tied up all day tomorrow. 3 w1 ?7 |) N  @6 Z2 y( U% [
: y" M1 Y6 y# [. M
用I have something to
, E, Z! n' p( j2 q+ p
: a& v, \& V0 x4 r, N1 V9 Ido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 ?$ j" [  I: d8 u1 O! K

& t, X7 J5 j0 Z# ^5 e( a9 xup.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
* B% o! E  p" E9 ~  e! g0 d: T! N+ w. t1 t' r
have to stay at home.
3 }! e# H& n/ E& j8 Z/ X7 \+ H& B4 p. r) d
6. 我没有英文名。I haven’t English name.
* U0 Z' i% }7 X, i2 I
* f0 M9 E6 z! _) dI don’t have an English name. 9 ]2 y. t( d( r0 O4 e8 I! G' p
/ j4 _: l' X: u1 J+ i3 {$ U
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。
: F6 ^8 w. n. V  n, N
- H9 c" M- z2 B1 b% ^+ V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 / a3 n- D) S" Q- c& }. b

& j6 H" s9 J! w; U1 b/ a, obrothers or sisters.我没有车。I don’t have a car.
1 D9 J( ?7 n; y; G8 D  s  }5 |3 W4 N- R" k& o+ }0 d3 x
7. 我想我不行。I think I can’t. : o0 t, ?) y2 I* i
1 t( t" y  @6 w9 c0 X, d9 f) ?
I don’t think I can.
5 Z5 h& c. j. A8 ?1 @+ e3 _7 T& ]4 ~
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,
: X6 {( z1 B( H: G8 X
: a- L* o  c+ O& z' d5 J; e8. 我的舞也跳得不好。I don’t dance well too.
3 d- u2 v! F  o7 m2 f- V) K; W6 G8 ?! `  V7 N
I am not a very good dancer either.
# R- u/ r& ]+ R& j1 P
3 m' P! K% [5 a+ `0 G; ~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。
% G, d* \; E1 e  [, r: A. @; g
) R5 z! j$ s' w9. 现在几点钟了?What time is it now? ' q1 P+ P% Z2 |
0 J7 q/ b* j; T
What time is it, please? ! h7 H6 d4 r( A/ k3 |+ C2 p* i
- ?( s3 v+ Z7 o3 }8 g& d7 ?
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
- ^; m1 Y6 ^. W' @  u; n
3 L& F! a5 Z3 N( \& O( gyesterday, 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 , @8 d/ K7 Q& o' M$ P

- s5 s) h3 m  U' Q9 Y- t2 G+ Kdoing for time?这句话在有时间限制的时候特别合适 + ~8 ~( E2 J& i& i" h6 ?) G

5 z. e! c$ U3 q* A0 H10. 我的英语很糟糕。My English is poor. : \. f7 U# {& X0 n

0 @* l: D7 u$ A) j, UI am not 100% fluent, but at least I am improving. % V% T/ t! z, q2 X0 p  f  N
6 x5 t3 k& p8 Y7 R  y: ?
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 9 h' x' U3 S& |/ y. P- }  Z1 F
) a9 G  `; o: a' R& k: P3 J
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. 9 N  d+ V2 [2 s1 y/ ?; T
6 w: `1 S2 q" r/ s4 [
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。 " E1 t1 E. M3 x1 m

- W+ {# I" t8 m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。
. W) t# o3 B9 ]! b$ V$ ]- C
3 G8 J* I% b0 y% Y" \2 t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.
( j1 D/ h( U, e' [5 a8 u- h- o$ a
, V/ g' j& R5 {3 i6 m( P5 v3 E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。 ! C& Z- Y8 B: }5 H$ \2 t5 w4 z1 L

- U  P* y. c9 s3 ^, d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
