1. I very like it 4 o8 s! T; }* E/ M8 Q; }
I like it very much.

) }8 d9 C& N2 I' U% D
2 l! v0 s! s) E2 s2 i1 r* ?The price is right.
: C( a! A/ w8 |/ n  W' [  `. P1 b
* ^. @0 h& p- }- SNote: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 7 }. b( s8 ?- S% b! T
! r! x/ n, `4 d8 c( ]
programme is not suitable for children在这组句子中用后面的说法会更合适。 5 _+ x5 U0 G2 e" R# ~: n

; b# [2 g& B5 y" \9 e$ k2 ?8 ^3. 你是做什么工作的呢?What’s your job?
! Q2 H2 u/ c. U5 T7 c/ Z' d+ t1 m& p0 C( v
Are you working at the moment? 3 K+ q6 _# a. {* C( ~9 {' o* C. B

Note:what’s your
7 s  Y( S6 }8 T3 L' V# S9 U" X6 Q/ E9 c/ a, f
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
/ T+ x' v' P' p7 w& g5 p9 i! J- [+ D5 _& s  G
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 5 \* _5 @3 G4 k3 u

3 `( F2 c- y  Y6 }# Vline 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 : L7 G* z1 `. f9 p- P. @
2 W5 I* A* ^- S5 w
4. 用英语怎么说?How to say? + |7 k* O: ^5 C- K$ `7 g2 g

" B; c: ]- T( y& }, Y$ x$ `5 VHow do you say this in English?
7 h. |3 d5 r0 Q* M+ H) D  H6 @0 O" ]" y) Y* I
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 " L* K0 l8 _% T. l7 G3 O: w' M

+ C3 P: ~$ t$ C4 ]" xspell that please?请问这个单词怎么读?How do you pronounce this word? + [( _8 P) @- x/ ^

; I- y8 F* y( R4 t- k/ D+ u5. 明天我有事情要做。I have something to do tomorrow? . Z4 C4 P6 @  k5 H( @2 `" m
# t5 I% U2 @8 v3 Y
Sorry but I am tied up all day tomorrow.
2 O# |7 P+ J/ L
! E: v# M4 M# k: }% ]9 J# U; [( h用I have something to ( C1 ~8 V: J5 M- R

# u% Q6 ^2 L, P' s6 x  o) ado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 5 S9 W  ?2 n- I1 u9 @- _, k
6 k& ]* M) b" R6 B4 V! f
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 6 k! M+ j8 t# y1 _. I( _

7 X: {4 v  N, M7 x* V6 t6 x& B  R4 `2 t0 Mhave to stay at home. : z: s2 r# p4 M) ~& F/ r: g

" t, w* O0 K7 A0 O6. 我没有英文名。I haven’t English name.
' ]9 z: ~# e! a* m* e3 a
) T5 g* ]9 C/ P5 w" sI don’t have an English name. 4 D' N# F( z4 Q* O9 S% s
2 J9 y* [( J6 d+ a
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。
; ?& n8 J# \/ S9 N1 r9 Y0 X2 K5 K0 A$ c, e/ u) 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
9 m- K5 F; t" Y& E6 o( A6 v! ?- O) d- u4 f* }4 _6 W
brothers or sisters.我没有车。I don’t have a car. ' i) j3 D" n8 G6 ~: w" }( p. k9 y

7. 我想我不行。I think I can’t.
& [8 |/ w8 A7 H9 y) d
2 W! F+ U% u. Y* Y7 aI don’t think I can. * E% [9 x4 k, b, W! n
2 C( a% V6 Q8 q( s* _& J( n
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, * ~* ]' M& B# z8 v

+ D. M3 |8 L# Z: }( u( C5 G8. 我的舞也跳得不好。I don’t dance well too.
' j( p+ U7 z* v, o/ Y3 _3 N
& f1 d& W% w8 A6 H: ~  UI am not a very good dancer either.
* i/ l7 S$ ^4 p) f1 u, F; ]
  |1 W/ z0 ?, q  lNote: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。 4 V% k6 p6 f  v6 [8 }; ~
3 l: s8 ], T* _+ M# @+ S/ l3 a
9. 现在几点钟了?What time is it now? + P5 P$ u8 ]9 r6 L5 f) o

1 A) [; F+ O" y, [4 y. yWhat time is it, please? 7 e9 K- t. C0 A
6 l6 e. A! l' t) W# ]3 s
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
) _. {; p0 G/ U1 ]0 ?1 h5 F2 U5 ?% v- Z0 Z  d) V, i
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
2 P$ S: f6 E( |, w9 u6 G& q0 Q7 r( g7 d  H# Q5 L* s! z  O" Z
doing for time?这句话在有时间限制的时候特别合适 9 L8 B8 o# C  g" ~& e$ g$ X0 f" {& L

9 [6 j) V! B- Z6 R' ]+ _9 Y10. 我的英语很糟糕。My English is poor. & n( {+ J; ~! G) h5 ^

5 n6 d% w6 m0 G9 R2 fI am not 100% fluent, but at least I am improving.
* n& t, c2 y* F, X& T
: w( w# J+ z) 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
1 @3 L% {# L! W% f, s3 [1 j" q' h8 N. ^
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. / A0 h1 e  h1 l3 {5 a- B

7 I# P# w# n3 X( o* Z$ {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。 - }. B7 R2 _5 V: ]1 g4 d# ]& y3 ?; Z
2 `' q$ {  j2 K1 f5 E, `. N% A# U9 {
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 m. {; A2 r9 T+ p! ~2 `4 X

8 k1 w: L& e( e1 D/ R" F  ^8 {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.   \1 t2 K8 G* Z( E) k2 l+ E
7 I" t, _& E4 H3 d  t2 P  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 ?9 Z) d2 D! ~

Party.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。

6 P5 m! T3 \1 m. w2 D) l9 C) R1 c8 e) i% \1 n0 J

8 A6 ?% z% a4 F- K: }' ^5 C* A1 j* c) u/ C4 v* B/ V: P6 }
