1."Excuse me, do you have the time?" Answer: "Yeah, it's about half past two."
This is a casual and more friendly way of asking for the time.You can also use "What time do you have?" but this is usually used between people who already know each other.If you want to be more formal or polite, just ask "Do you know what time it is?"
"打擾一下,現(xiàn)在幾點(diǎn)了?" "兩點(diǎn)半左右。"
你知道幾點(diǎn)了嗎？在不太正式的場合下，可以用這句話來詢問時(shí)間。也可以說成"What time do you have?"但是這句話多用于熟識(shí)的人之間。如果你想更正式或有禮貌些，就可以說"Do you know what time it is?"
2."My name is …… " Question: "What's your name?"
These two sentences can be used one right after the other:"My name is Noah.What's your name?"You'll sound even more like a native speaker if you shorten it by replacing the second sentence with "What's yours?"In most cases though, it is usually enough to say your name (My name is…… or I'm ……) and extend your hand to shake hands.Usually the other person will voluntarily give his name (it's impolite not to).
"我的名字是……""你叫什么名字？"
"My name is Noah. What's your name?"這兩句話通常是接連使用的。把第二個(gè)句子簡短地說成："What's yours"，將使你聽起來更像西方人。但在大多數(shù)情況下，僅說出你的名字然后握手也就夠了。(My name is….或I'm…)。通常情況下，對方會(huì)主動(dòng)報(bào)出他的名字。(如果他有禮貌的話。)
3."Nice to meet you." Answer: "Nice to meet you too."
This is used only when you're meeting someone for the first time. If you're meeting with someone that you already know you would say "nice to see you" or "nice to see you again."
"很高興認(rèn)識(shí)你。""認(rèn)識(shí)你我也很高興。"
Nice to meet you.(見到你很高興。)只用在首次見面。如果遇見你已認(rèn)識(shí)的人，就應(yīng)該說"Nice to see you."或"Nice to see you again."
4. "Where are you from?"Answer: "I'm from ……"
Perhaps you've learned that you can also ask "where do you come from?"While this is technically correct, it sounds very strange to westerners!The best way to do it is to ask "where are you from?"
"你來自哪里？""我來自……"
也許以前學(xué)過"swheresdo you come from?"(你從哪兒來？)，嚴(yán)格地講，這句話是不正確的。但讓老外聽起來覺得不可思議。正確的表達(dá)方式是: "Where are you from?"(你從哪里來？)。
5. "What do you do?" Answer: " I'm a ……"
This is a shorter way of asking "What do you do for a living?" It is understood that this refers to work or career and doesn't mean "What do you do in your spare time?"
"你做什么工作？""我是……"
"What do you do?" (你的工作是什么？)是"What do you do for a living?"的簡單說法。問題涉及到你的職業(yè)，與"What do you do in your spare time?" (你業(yè)余時(shí)間做什么？)的意思不一樣。
6. "Can I have your e-mail address?" Answer: "Sure, it's ……"
"能留下你的電子信箱嗎？""當(dāng)然可以，我的電子郵箱是……"
