老杨团队,追求完美;客户至上,服务到位!
1. I very like it ) e  b8 C: i/ |- G# x' ]
I like it very much. 9 L& J( A$ H1 v9 m3 O+ B

% Z2 W& T! _  F$ U3 i9 d' C) v2. 这个价格对我挺合适的。
3 C, w* c; ?; O4 [6 o' r7 @: A; Z
The price is very suitable for me.
# F8 g- E* F  \- I6 X2 ]* k
! e4 }0 l, l3 _6 F) R$ ^The price is right. + c- N" m$ C( A$ l1 u

$ L5 g1 ~4 e# [) ~) }0 E* 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
" O/ E& R  S! B/ U
- G2 P8 f4 x, d5 M$ Oprogramme is not suitable for children在这组句子中用后面的说法会更合适。
/ J% x: C$ U# |' g) p3 @* V  ?- d* T+ L/ U/ d, f
3. 你是做什么工作的呢?What’s your job? 8 \  s& J4 J8 s( @% V+ ]: r! ?

  w4 r8 B$ Y; d; A5 |8 Z: ?; `Are you working at the moment? ) ^. h! z0 ^9 ]* A5 E
) A. N. ?  y$ ^/ s6 b- q
Note:what’s your
, W7 j, V7 w7 |- R( k  r( a! X$ K
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 * J2 _+ W' E) I4 z! F0 }. ?( t7 _  ]
8 O. w8 D, f, 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
" d* B: w* d. B! j& U; j% H' N8 a1 p! 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
# r  ]/ K  W7 e8 T  Q, O7 i4 S& t/ k+ i# |0 B
4. 用英语怎么说?How to say? 4 S/ Z6 m( J( F. @
: W# @2 f# v* ]# c
How do you say this in English?
5 c8 V$ @% @8 j7 w
# s) b( E" k8 C/ q6 ZNote: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 " a) D8 G+ M# `. k9 ~
: L# X8 u. k" i4 a9 K% ^+ t
spell that please?请问这个单词怎么读?How do you pronounce this word?
, P) r6 e& D% ]8 V  P
5 \5 d5 j2 d" x  A5. 明天我有事情要做。I have something to do tomorrow?
2 }$ f& V* \7 ?+ ~' M4 L! M0 ?/ f
% j& r  n  n& V2 V$ OSorry but I am tied up all day tomorrow. ) w+ {+ ~$ ?2 r7 V0 N/ `! B

8 `2 X' w0 V4 V( c8 X" Q8 X用I have something to
+ t; y2 o! _* o- i5 p1 ^- P6 N% t" J9 ?  u: n" j3 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
' \0 f) F( a( ^% d0 I7 n
# J1 V3 p; h/ h: A2 @+ W8 O" |1 e7 Eup.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 . M. ?/ z/ C* h$ B! y2 P
2 m7 s/ D! d7 l6 e  ?5 S
have to stay at home.
4 c0 {; W, `3 A0 z5 [5 f
" m3 H& y8 E7 l. N/ E0 O3 A0 X; r6. 我没有英文名。I haven’t English name. 2 Y/ H0 A4 ?7 a: q0 z
1 N  `; v5 ?3 m; h
I don’t have an English name.
  s2 a0 S: |  n, G3 u- d( V2 e3 M) M! R7 j  R0 L9 E) h2 L
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。 " H5 a4 i/ T8 D
: @0 g$ j- W" }. W4 c$ g9 F5 _7 |
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
& T) E3 n6 `; F" B3 k% e5 l2 S" U6 V0 p* A
brothers or sisters.我没有车。I don’t have a car. 4 {0 q4 N5 l5 Y2 T

) `7 V4 P; Q  x7. 我想我不行。I think I can’t.
3 L- _8 I) E6 s1 \+ }: O# Z) W/ v, L  Q, i
I don’t think I can.
5 E/ I4 \. R* r1 [( Q# o. N- H
% V: P$ R" p- iNote: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 f  @6 ]# g( u% \) P! K
+ g3 `, W5 R& Y
8. 我的舞也跳得不好。I don’t dance well too. 9 Z) H2 I% n2 ?( \
+ m. {) t, T. ^0 }
I am not a very good dancer either.
/ j7 Y; |1 }( Y3 s; e2 A9 X* q% `3 c: ~* k6 \4 c% q; {* d) @: i
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。 5 y& j1 m0 p( I& }1 _
9 F8 i, W8 L" s( F. |
9. 现在几点钟了?What time is it now? * E- G* q4 n8 x$ S

5 G2 Z$ t' U/ ]What time is it, please?
1 D- u2 H, g7 Q$ D3 P; b; I3 }7 J( e4 ~& |/ T* v
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
7 v5 L+ T$ M; g3 S8 B) V. }( G# k7 r! z" b
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
: h: Q: \9 M  R! ^, u
0 Q8 |8 z0 K' o# ]: Jdoing for time?这句话在有时间限制的时候特别合适
- U0 U1 Z  O5 i5 O! p- ]/ B3 n# i" m0 H
10. 我的英语很糟糕。My English is poor.
( ?; O; g2 ?& _& F8 V8 D+ G/ Z, w" A5 g
I am not 100% fluent, but at least I am improving. ' I) K3 p7 X. [) C9 [( P4 ]) M4 C* _, W
) Z! B, `5 q, Q) _0 x" {
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 & i0 P, c2 C  m$ ~
  U5 |6 k" Q7 d
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. 7 M( f4 M! ?: M/ `- i! e5 `

% ?  D5 Y' w1 J6 F/ E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。 ; n, S& N# C3 D2 s

! L3 T( Y; b  g$ Y) ~3 z. 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。 7 R) q# s1 N6 e5 y$ M
6 {0 C1 ?- B% u3 C% e% U3 [
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. 9 s6 C; f" ?( r% z
, X. ?5 c/ y7 E8 k0 E2 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 N8 s1 l( J( Y# |' J% N

0 J9 k+ O4 [& l+ |* E. W6 aWould you like to come to our party on Friday night?
1 D' U, ]1 n$ [6 }/ B* K1 }. f% J/ x/ T* D
Note:join往往是指参加俱乐部或者协会,如:join a health club; join the Communist
  D: Z: j, [+ R% ?7 {; a5 E* b5 }% ~2 v$ D8 D" c
