1. I very like it
# z/ O1 s) A# @  m- kI like it very much. 6 s1 }: c, |; t7 ^0 p3 w

$ W: }6 ^' u' G6 g2. 这个价格对我挺合适的。
; p  r3 _8 P& S4 p. z& H( T" [/ x
- k8 s+ L, F3 ]$ v+ W/ sThe price is very suitable for me. 4 ]. `8 k6 [' m( g2 ~! R

4 T: d/ k8 S  X5 E" Z, j3 CThe price is right.
( ~# V8 g9 W: d5 s+ G* i3 }1 t: A5 z5 e& c& L% K
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
- U9 J  W  n6 ]; `
, L' v. C/ @  ?; F. C9 T; Bprogramme is not suitable for children在这组句子中用后面的说法会更合适。 + M5 S1 F0 _$ P* V

9 O- \" C3 ^$ M1 {3. 你是做什么工作的呢?What’s your job? 0 n3 H  g3 ?0 O9 H
6 \0 o0 a; F% `0 c5 d( M% \
Are you working at the moment? % w2 ^+ i7 |$ t6 A3 t9 K

# S& g* O8 C% _5 YNote:what’s your , d7 @- T6 `% @4 b6 b: M3 ~
" `" J1 O+ s7 i; A! y) Q
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 9 e! F# c) j# K9 ~2 x
5 ]; s# L! D: o6 l1 Q  j2 Y
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 / \( S! b9 X4 O) j
- N6 `9 J6 ]' 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 & ~; {! b( w9 z" i+ s
; ~) U; e1 Q+ q8 i; Q8 @# P
4. 用英语怎么说?How to say?
" _/ n- G3 J4 A6 i7 L+ j; m
  U+ N$ }( B& mHow do you say this in English?
2 @: R! U* I  l( H$ y3 f+ v
7 p* x- R6 _# B; [; X; K% HNote: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
' o9 ]1 |/ E: z7 \; K  K6 i1 }# F( V( k+ f0 I
spell that please?请问这个单词怎么读?How do you pronounce this word?
- |; ^9 h! s; p  i* e! [
2 J/ x5 R" u, A5. 明天我有事情要做。I have something to do tomorrow?
( G. s) K, r& q/ Y* d9 ]6 b5 |5 @8 B+ Q9 `, t, [+ Y, ^( M
Sorry but I am tied up all day tomorrow. + _5 Y+ w% ~( z& I1 {0 H" L) W

; \; Z; S1 p; F+ a, l( M* i用I have something to + y6 R* [  l9 N3 R) C2 u* Z" D9 O
* m- Q- s5 q& 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
3 ^% m& E0 T$ P( Z- r& V( i! t$ F( v+ g" x2 [
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
( ~" |0 W( v2 Y, p2 {8 G
- t1 p0 ?8 p& dhave to stay at home. - i, c1 X1 v0 p# j6 ~6 o

0 i7 F8 q0 _' d* m" r  m6 S6. 我没有英文名。I haven’t English name. 7 G' ?$ e, e6 h, f
5 p- D. W6 S1 L- @3 v0 l
I don’t have an English name.
$ g; _8 H, l+ W/ g/ _
' ]0 d  h1 X; w% cNote: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。
* d0 u8 \% `1 Y- g: K6 @
! [  `& E) R  R8 w; ~+ C6 Z9 q. U" N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
/ _1 Y0 d0 |9 x* y: L  C- x7 x- D: X. U" P
brothers or sisters.我没有车。I don’t have a car.
" g2 H2 D+ J, ~$ \7 f6 J, T5 z- [: _8 x, ~, p4 X' D
7. 我想我不行。I think I can’t.
& d# [+ d! K  }+ Z' [0 h2 f! Z" i$ F- N7 y2 P
I don’t think I can. 6 e5 E6 H. i2 ]5 g8 N3 t* `8 S& w+ K
0 [7 Y1 T" w/ t/ T- O# ?
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, & c  C2 M7 i* Q. k9 j# P, i

0 ~& i5 v2 B6 X: c- x0 {8. 我的舞也跳得不好。I don’t dance well too.
' S& H0 V# F8 Q- J9 |8 i- N6 k6 W7 V0 c. H& r7 ^  n# H
I am not a very good dancer either. 1 [3 s& V. P; x" A- z9 l; A
* r* R" x% f# ?7 I. Q. l
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。 # M* ?# l5 `8 U) n! W

. t* d1 y4 S. O* q  E9. 现在几点钟了?What time is it now? - u4 C% p$ X3 A0 J- a5 x, X

8 m$ V1 N2 x7 t# E# ~What time is it, please? * F$ I1 k$ O6 j/ H# Y
# H: B' ]/ c3 r; U% {5 E) W
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
9 x' k8 V6 G' {' z6 j6 D% z" q: e4 b8 Y5 x
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 ! u- g9 z+ N* T. Z, N: A3 B

' V- N& ^0 J" I5 P4 @6 @5 V6 H/ ldoing for time?这句话在有时间限制的时候特别合适
5 x( Q) X. m: O% a3 J# X8 y; a+ K4 \6 [
10. 我的英语很糟糕。My English is poor. : J$ T9 P* f# V4 f9 i* f  n

8 M6 v, ^2 o) V. A) mI am not 100% fluent, but at least I am improving.
% [5 x) M; m2 v9 h# [9 s2 S" R* A" d' `' z) R3 N  P
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
: q. Y6 l5 p, q+ p; C
  B  {2 H1 c' z* T  N7 v2 V+ Fpoor. 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. + c4 R$ N: _" L6 l; L: E* O  b- K

/ L. P" K1 Q/ H' R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。
3 a+ \$ E  g1 E  N* L5 \9 m+ O: `, o# W
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。
% H, F3 ~  s" G& Y% b* C% ^, Q( h1 \4 b
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 \% g  B8 }* v& w! c
