英语复习之交际用语(二)
交际最基本的要求是:委婉、有礼、得体、连贯、符合文化习惯。
(选择答案的依据所在)
项内容,部分语法知识以及一些常识性的文化知识。
可以说,内容非常广泛。
下文将列举的是考试常见的交际用语考点。
中西文化对比
在日常交谈中,英国人彼此见面常常喜欢以“Good morning/afternoon/evening. Hello/Hi.”打招呼;并且喜欢以谈论天气(Nice day, isn’t it?) 作为交谈的开始;美国人见面常常问身体等;而中国人却常问“吃过饭了吗?”
基本用语a. 见面问候:Good morning/afternoon/evening. Hello/Hi.
b. 代向某人问候:Best wishes/regards to...=give one's regards to sb = give one's best wishes to sb = give one's best love to sb = give one's best regards to sb.
c. 替某人向……问好: say“Hi”/“Hello”to sb from sb = give one's regards to sb.
Please remember me to.... 回答用语: ----I will. Thanks.
d. How do you do? (初次见面通常用语) ---How do you do?
How are you? (比较熟悉的人之间用语) ---Fine, thank you, and you?/Very well, thank you.
How are you getting along with...? (你近来...可好?) --Every is fine!
How are you doing? (您工作还顺利吧?) --- I'm just great!
How is everything? (一切还好吧?) ---Very(quite)well,thank you!
How is your vacation/holiday(s)/Christmas Day/weekend? (假期怎么样?) --- Not bad!
What's up? (近来可忙?) ---Couldn't be better, thank you!
What's going on? (近来可好?) --- Just so so. (一般; 还可以)
注意要点
1. “Hello”既可用于问候,有时也用于引起对方注意,打电话或叫人,多在熟人之间使用,而“Hi”的用法比
“Hello”更随便,口语中多见。
2. Hello!和Hi!是互相熟悉的人之间的招呼语,比较随便,一天中任何时候都可以用。
有时,后面还可加上
对方的名字,以示亲热。
Good evening! 一般用于晚上(通常是九点以前). 需要注意的是,不可用Good day 来打招呼。
Good morning!省略good 时,也可用来打招呼,但一般用于比较熟悉的人之间。
3. “How are you?”则用于询问对方身体情况答语可根据实际情况,如:“Fine/ Very well,thank you.”注意:
(very) good不能用来表示身体健康. 假如身体确实不太舒服并想让对方知道,不妨说Not too well, I'm afraid.
4. 对于不认识的人,想要他/她停下的说法:Hey, Sir/ Madam! Just a moment, Sir/ Madam.
5. 与英美人见面寒暄时,不应问及他(她)的年龄、婚否、收入等个人隐私情况。
★介绍
基本
用语
a. This is Mr/Mrs/Miss/Ms/Comrade.... May I introduce you to...? I’d like you to meet....
b. How do you do? Nice/Glad/Pleased to see/meet you. Nice meeting you…

me introduce you to others.
Meet my sister Cathy. Bill, this is Tom. Hi, I'm Susan, this is my calling card.
注意
要点
“Nice to meet you.”与“Nice to see you.”有一点区别。
前者的意思是初次见面(认识你很高兴)被人介绍相识后的寒暄用语。
后者与前者在意思上相同,但是用于熟人之间(一段时间未见面后再次相遇)两者回答用语与问候语相同。
Nice to meet you.主要表示初次见面时的问候,而Nice meeting you.则是初次见面分手时的用语。

中西文化对比
西方人在发出“邀请”前常有一个引子,尤其在客气的场合,如可先这样问一下对方是否有空:Are you free this evening? 而Would you like to...和I'd like to invite you to...的句式较为客气,带有商量、询问的口气,多用于不知对方能否接受邀请的场合。
a. 接受他人邀请时通常还要表示一下感谢。
常用: Yes, I’d love to.
Yes, it’s very kind/nice of you; Yes, with pleasure.
b. 如果是稍有保留地接受,可这样说:I will if I can.
It's very kind of you to invite me, but I'm not sure if I can come.
c. 拒绝他人的邀请一般不直接说No, 而要婉言谢绝(通常会说明理由),并要声明自己是愿意接受“邀请”的,但因某种原因不能接受,并表示歉意或感谢。
常用:
I’d like to, but I’m too busy. / I’m sorry I can’t, but…
I really enjoy it, but I’ve got to go now.
I wish I could accept your invitation, but I’m afraid I don’t have time to go.
Thank you for your kindness, but I’ve got an appointment at that time.
基本用语a. Will/ Would/ Can/ Could you come to...? Would you like to…I'd like to invite you to...&
b. Yes, I'd love/ be glad/ happy to(...). Yes, I'd like to. / I'll be glad to. Of course. I'll be glad to. Oh yes, thank you. Yes, it's very kind/nice of you. OK. Thank you very much. Yes, great. Sure, why not? Sure. That's a good idea. Yes, with pleasure.
c. I'd love to, but.... I'm sorry, but I can't.
中西文化对比有聚总有散!客人要走, 中国人常常会极力留客; 留不住, 也会送客很远很远; 嘴里说: “慢走!”
客人要走, 英美人决不留客, 通常一句“Good-bye!”了事, 出门一概不理! 对于客人的到访, 时常还要表示感谢: Thank you for coming.
基本用语1. 直接的告别话语有:Good bye! (Bye bye! Bye!) See you (tomorrow)! See you later! So long! Farewell! Good night.
2. 委婉的告别辞有:I'd like to say goodbye to everyone. I'm calling to say goodbye. I’m afraid I must be leaving/off now. I think it’s time for us to leave now.
3. 其他带有祝愿以及叮嘱等的告别辞有:I'll look forward to seeing you soon.
Let's hope we’ll meet again.Hope to see you again. Drop in anytime you like.
注意要点a. Good night./Night!只限于晚上告别或上床睡觉时使用。
b. Have a nice day!限于白天告别时用(如早餐后家人互相道别)。
c. 告别前通常要说一两句客套话,如:I'm afraid I must be off (going) now. 长久告别时,还可同时表达希望今后多联系(Keep/Get in touch),要对方保重身体(Take care),问候对方家人(Please send my best wishes/regards to your family.)等。

中西文化对比1. 在英语文化中人们常常通过赞扬来鼓励某些合乎自己心意的行为,像You did a good job! Well done, everyone. You look nice. That's a beautiful shirt you're wearing. You are very clever. 而对他人的赞美,最普通、常用的答语是“Thank you.”而在中国的文化中,人们面对夸奖,常说“您过奖了”、“哪里,哪里。
”(“Where, where?”)以表示谦逊。
2. 英国人收到礼物时,通常都会当着送礼人的面打开礼物,同时会说一些喜欢或赞美的话以表示谢意,送礼人此时常常附和说: “I'm glad you like it.”而中国人往往说一些谦让的话“您太客气了。
”“您这样做太破费了。
”等。
若用此表达方式对待英国人,对方肯定会觉得你不喜欢或对他的礼物不屑一顾。
3. 在西方, 别人给你做事、帮忙,别人向你问候或祝贺,别人给你鼓励或赞扬时, 不能直接说No,而应该说Thank you。
4. 当别人问你要不要喝茶或吃点什么东西时,你若要喝或吃应说Yes, please,若你不想吃或喝应说No,thank you.或No,thanks.

中西文化对比A. 对于他人的祝愿、祝贺,英美人表示感谢(Thanks)。
B. 和大家同庆同欢乐, 回答用: The same to you / You, too.
C. I’m glad to hear that. 用于向对方主动告知的喜事表示祝贺或“附和”.

四、道歉、遗憾和应答(责备和抱怨; 提醒)
中西文中国人喜欢反复强调自己的谦意,并喜欢用“非常抱歉”、“深表歉意”等表示程度倾向的语句,而
化对比英美人士则不同,对于因客观原因而造成的过失或差错,不必主动工过分向对方表示歉意。
如一定要向对方道歉,说声sorry 即可,一般不用very , terribly , truly 等表示程度的词。
因为在美国,过分的道歉或自责反而显得不太诚恳,令人感到虚假或另有用心。
对于不能去做或已经发生的不幸的事情, 西方人表示遗憾说: What a pity/ shame! 表示同情说: I'm sorry to hear that. Bad luck!
基本用语1. (I'm)Sorry./ I'm sorry for/about…/ I'm sorry to do sth. / I'm sorry to have done sth… 2. Excuse/ Pardon me ( for… ) 3. Please forgive me for... (请原谅…)
4. sb. be afraid that…
5. What a pity/shame! / It's a pity that…
A. It is not important. That's OK. That's all right. It's quite all right. Never mind.
It doesn't matter (at all). Not at all. It's nothing. /That's nothing. (没关系)
Please don't worry. It's nothing to worry about. Not to worry. Don't mention it.
It doesn't really matter. Please think nothing of it. Let's forget it. / No harm done.
B. That's not your fault. It's not your fault. It was me to blame. (这是我的错)
It was all my fault to have done... (这都是我的错…)
That's okay. Don't let it bother you. (没事,别想的太多了)
We really didn't mean that at all. (我们真的没有那样的意思)
注意要点
Excuse me通常用于下列情形:需要打断别人谈话或工作时;有求于他人时;因故需要暂时离开时;就某事表示不同意见时;自己的言行将会影响他人时。
(即:说或做可能令人不悦的事情之前使用以引起别人注意)。
注意: 打扰别人,意为“劳驾”;请求别人让路;向别人问路,打听消息,意为“对不起,请问…”。
回答时说:“Yes?”;
Sorry用于说话人做了错事或无意中与别人发生冲撞时于事后向他人表示歉意;也可表示因不能满足他人要求或请求而表示歉意。

中西文化差异
西方人说话比较直率。
对于别人的打扰,自己受到的不公平待遇会以“提醒”、“明确表示”等方式说出来,但是不会不留面子。
一般对责备与抱怨,人们通常的反应是表示抱歉(I’m sorry)与愿意接受。
基本用语A. 英语中责备与抱怨的话通常有:What on earth is the matter here? (到底发生了什么事?)
I'm afraid I have a complaint to make about the service. (我对你们的服务有意见。
) You ought to be ashamed of what you've done on me. (你应为你对我所做的事感到羞愧。
) Why on earth did you say such a silly thing to me? (你对我说这种蠢话究竟是什么意思?) You ought to be careful enough next time. (你下次再不能这样粗心了。
)
It's no nice of you to behave like that. (你那样做太不像话。
)
I am ashamed of you. 我为你感到羞耻。
You can't do that to me. 你不能这样对我。
Why can’t you do something about it? How dare you do that? 你怎幺敢这样做?
Can't you see? 你难道没看见吗?What do you mean by doing so? 你那样做是什幺意思?What on earth is the matter? 究竟发生了什幺事情?Why didn't you tell me the truth earlier? Didn't I tell you to be here on time? 难道我没叫你准时到这里吗?

五、禁止和警告
基本常识
日常生活中,人们经常会碰到“禁止”“警告”的场合,如在博物馆里的No Touch (请勿触摸展品);影剧院里、公共汽车上的No Smoking (不许抽烟);公园里座位旁边的Wet Paint (油漆未干);交通要道处的No Parking (禁止停车)等。
在正式场合,提醒对方注意,语气一般较为婉转,如:Please be sure to come earlier tomorrow.
当对方处于危险状态而没有注意到时,你应该及时提出警告以防不测。
如情况危险,就用简短有力的祈使句。
如:Take care! / Watch out! / Be careful! / Stop!
接受了别人的警告必须向对方表示感谢并简要说明理由, 甚至道歉。
禁止和警告通常是在一种紧急的语境中发出的,而且语言要简洁,因此祈使句是常见的表达方式。
禁止和警告这一功能有时相当于威胁,但口气强弱有所不同。
表示禁止时常用:You mustn't / You can't (不行) 。
表示警告时常用和:Take care. / Be careful! / Look out! / Mind out! 小心Watch out! 当心! 等。
