熟練地運(yùn)用英語的一個重要方面就是學(xué)習(xí)并掌握英語本族者常用的生動、活潑的習(xí)語。
1. After you.你先請。
這是一句很常用的客套話，在進(jìn)/出門,上車得場合你都可以表現(xiàn)一下。 (好象現(xiàn)在女士不愿意你這么做，特別是那些女權(quán)主義者，我還記得這么一段話：一個女士對一個讓她先行的男士說：you do this because i am a woman?那個男士回答說：i do this not because you are a woman but because i am a man!i love this guy!
2. I just couldn’t help it.我就是忍不住。
想想看，這樣一個漂亮的句子可用于多少個場合?下面是隨意舉的一個例子：
I was deeply moved by the film and I cried and cried. I just couldn’t help it.
太棒的句子了，我愛死它了。：)
3. Don’t take it to heart. 別往心里去，別為此而憂慮傷神。
生活實例：This test isn’t that important. Don’t take it to heart. 安慰人的超級句子。
4. We’d better be off.我們該走了。
It’s getting late. We’d better be off .
5. Let’s face it. 面對現(xiàn)實吧。
常表明說話人不愿意逃避困難的現(xiàn)狀。
參考例句：I know it’s a difficult situation. Let’s face it, OK?
很棒啊，年輕人犯錯誤，上帝都會原諒，remember?但是犯了錯誤，你必須面對他，let’s face it,或者是：let’s face the music.
6. Let’s get started.咱們開始干吧。
勸導(dǎo)別人時說：Don’t just talk. Let’s get started.
let’s get started.
let’s start.
let’s do it right now.
let’s hit sth.
let’s rock&roll.
let’s put our hands on sth.
7. I’m really dead.我真要累死了。
坦誠自己的感受時說：After all that work, I’m really dead.
8. I’ve done my best.我已盡力了。
這句話，很有用，失敗有時難免，但是你要是可以說，i’ve done my best.or i spare no efforts.就不必遺憾，畢竟，man supposes,god disposes.
9. Is that so?真是那樣嗎?
常用在一個人聽了一件事后表示驚訝、懷疑。
10. Don’t play games with me!別跟我耍花招!
11. I don’t know for sure.我不確切知道。
