当别人在你旁边罗嗦个没完,你烦透了,说“You are so boring “.(你真烦!)。“Shut up !”(闭嘴!)自然没错,可人家受得了吗?不如来一句“Oh, come on .Give me a break !” (帮帮忙,让我歇歇吧!)这多地道、多幽默。4 d" }3 c0 E- d' i& Y
( _- f: F9 ~; t3 Y5 ?要想说人“气色好”。“You look fine !”当然不错,可如果你说”You’re in the pink !”就妙得多了,实际上,在英语口语中,表示颜色的词用起来非常形象生动。- W; E$ b9 u6 P" Z

有人开会迟到了,你若对他说 “You are late .”,听起来象是废话,若说“Did you get lost ?”,则更能让他歉然,可别说成“Get lost!”那可是让人滚蛋的意思。! y. }. r4 x1 ?3 |% G

别人问你不愿公开的问题,切勿用“It’s my secret ,Don’t ask such a personal question .”回答,一来显得你没有个性,二来也让对方尴尬。你可以说“I would rather not say .”(还是别说了吧!)。- A0 Y/ I3 c2 m% ~

遇到你不懂的问题时可别不懂装懂,“I know”可能是中国人用得最多,而美国人最不能接受的一句话。当一美国教师向你解释某个问题时,你如果连说两遍“I know”可能是中国人用得最多,而美国人最不能接受的一句话。当一美国教师向你解释某个问题时,你如果连说两遍“I know”,我敢保证,他不会再跟你说什么了。用“I know ”或“I got it ”就顺耳得多,要是不懂就说“I’m not clear about it .”不过如果你会说“It’s past my understanding”或“It’s beyond me .”你的教师定会惊讶不已的。8 p: L2 q- q1 m- a& F6 K
