练习英语口语,最重要的是自信,不害怕开口,不怕犯错,才能杜绝哑巴英语。
Some small talks about learning to speak English
1.当我们日常聊天时,总会有一些话题,我们不想谈论,想要改变或避免某个话题,可以使用以下语句:
If you don't mind, I'd rather not talk about that.
It's a long story. I'll tell you about it some day.
2.同国外同学/同事吃饭时,如果你去他们所在的国家,他们可能会请你吃饭,就会说:
Dinner's on me.
Dinner's my treat.
Let me take care of the check.
所以,请客这回事,不仅是在国内有,在国外,如果是关系很好的同事或朋友,你去他们所在的地方,作为东道主,一般他们也会请客的。日常吃饭,可能大家就是AA制了。
AA制:
Go dutch.
3.出门在外,或日常学习工作中,难免需要别人帮忙,学会这几句求助的语句,很有帮助:
Would you mind if I used your pen to take a note?
Do you mind if I bring a friend together with us?
Could you do me a favor?
I have a big favor to ask.
4.如果想主动提供帮助给别人,可以说:
Let me give you a hand with that.
Can I help you?
Do you need some help with sth. blabla ?
5.婉拒别人的帮助是,可以说:
That's very kind, but I'm OK, thank you.
No thanks. I can manage.
6.向朋友们分享一些新消息时,可以说:
Have you heard?
You'll never guess what happened?
Guess what?
Have you heard the latest?
如果,是一般的新闻,表达好奇或吃惊时,可以回答:
Really?
Is that right?
I don't believe it.
You're joking, right?
No kidding.
如果,是好消息,可以回答:
Wow!
That's great!
I'm so glad.
That's wonderful!
I'm so happy for you!
如果是坏消息,则可以使用以下语句表达:
Oh my/ Oh dear!
That's too bad
That's a shame
That's awful/terrible.
