高考英语试卷日常交际用语

日常交际用语

●精典题例解读

［例1］（2002 NMET，21）—Good morning,Grand Hotel.

—Hello,I’d like to book a room for the nights of the 18th and 19th.

—______

A.What can I do for you?

B.Just a minute please.

C.What’s the matter.

D.At your service.

【解析】本题检测考生在实际情景中运用英语进行交际的能力。考生需要根据题干内容判断对话背景及说话者的身分。这是旅馆服务员与旅客间的对话。由于一些考生只注意到服务员与顾客之间常用What can I do for you?没有认真审题就选择了A项。实际上是这位顾客通过电话询问是否可以定一间房间，服务员接到电话后，他需要查一下登记情况，所以正确选项应为Just a minute.A项为提供帮助，但在对方已明确提出要求时还问这样的话不合情理。B项虽未正面回答对方要求，但也属于一种合理的应答：Just a minute…=Please wait for a while,I’m going to check it.C项用于询问有何问题或有何故障，用于此处语境显然不合适。D项的迷惑性最大，但如果能够把握at your service这一说法的真实含义，即可做出准确判断。请观察以下例子：

If you need any help,I and my car are at your service.显然，at your service意为willing to help（乐意为您效劳，听候你的吩咐），本题中对方已经提出明确要求，（a room for the nights of…）,再说这样的话，实在是多此一举了。

【答案】B

［例2］（2000 NMET，9）—Waiter!

—______

—I can’t eat this.It’s too salty.

A.Yes,sir?

B.What?

C.All right?

D.Pardon?

【解析】Yes,sir?的意思是“先生，什么事？”以便知道对方的请求。

【答案】A

［例3］（2002北京春季，21）—I’ve got your invitation.

—Oh,good.______

A.Can you come?

B.Thanks a lot.

C.I’ll take it.

D.May I help you?

【解析】对方说：“我收到你的邀请。”Can you come?是问对方是否能来的日常用语。Thanks a lot.是收到请帖应该说的话；I’ll take it.表示要收下；May I help you?是售货员问顾客的用语。

【答案】A
