二、日常用語(Everyday English)
日常問候用語是考生必須熟練運用的知識,這與考生的口語操練有很大關系。說促進聽,是許多英語學習者的心得。而且日常問候要視人而定,如英國人見面談天氣,美國人見面問身體等。下面作詳細介紹:
1.問候類(Greetings)
英語中的問候用語非常繁多,正式的通常有:
How do you do?(初次見面通常用語)
How are you?(比較熟悉的人之間用語)
How are you getting along with……?(你近來……可好?)
How are you doing?(您工作還順利吧?)
How is everything?(一切還好吧?)
How is your vacation/holiday(s)/Christmas Day/weekend?(假期怎么樣?)
當今美國社會流行口語用語,大致有:
What‘s up?(近來可忙?)
Hello?Hi?
What‘s going on?(近來可好?)
How is life?
How is it going?anything new?
Pleased to meet you again!
對以上問候的對答通常有How do you do!
Fine!Thank you,and you?
Every is fine!
I‘m just great!
Very(quite)well,thank you!
Couldn‘t be better,thank you!
Not bad!
Can‘t complain!
Just so so.
值得一提的是,隨著美語越來越廣泛地滲透,聽力中用美語朗讀且以美國社會為背景的題材的趨勢愈加明顯??忌⒁馊粘?谡Z對話,及時吸取信息,將對聽力有很大的幫助。
請看下面的對話:
A:Good morning, Ms Lucy. This is Betty, can you still remember me?
B:Betty? Is it really? Surely I remember you. You are my good friend, and I haven??t seen you for ages, but how are you?
A:Fine, I'm just fine, Ms Lucy……
2.告別類(Farewell)
有聚總有散。告別情景的設置往往并非簡單、直接地告別,常伴隨著理由、托辭等。
直接的告別話語有:
Good bye! (Bye bye! Bye?。?BR> See you (tomorrow)! See you later!
So long! Farewell!
委婉的告別辭有:
I‘d like to say goodbye to everyone.
I‘m afraid I must be going now.
I‘m calling to say goodbye.
其他帶有祝愿以及叮囑等的告別辭有:
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.
Mind how you go, bye!
Take care of yourself, and don‘t forget to keep in touch.
Do keep in touch!
My regards to your family.
A pleasant journey to you!
I‘ll miss you!
這種表達方式與中國人的日常言談頗為相似,所以有時不妨可作大膽推測。
請在下面的對話中對此加以體會:
M: I‘m afraid I’ve got to go now.
W: Can‘t you stay just another minute?
M: Oh, dear, I really have to……
W: Ok, take care of yourself, and I will miss you. Bye!
M: Bye!……
3.介紹(Introduction)
在日常生活中我們會經(jīng)常碰到一些朋友小聚會,生日晚會等場面。在這些活動中,總會有一些我們不認識的人,因而互相介紹在這里就顯得非常的重要。在聽力中,人物介紹往往是一句帶過,因此通過這些有限句子弄清人物關系十分重要。同時要注意語氣的委婉。
英語中介紹性的語句通常有:
May I know your name?(請問貴姓?)
It‘s my pleasure to introduce you to each other.(我非常高興給你們互相介紹)
May I introduce Mr. Bill to you all?(請允許我給大家介紹以下比爾先生)
Margaret,can you introduce me to her?(瑪格麗特,你能不能把我介紹給她?)
Let me introduce you to others.(讓我給大家介紹一下你吧)
Meet my sister Cathy.(這是我的姐(妹)凱絲)
Bill, this is Tom.
Hi, I‘m Susan,this is my calling card.(你好!我是蘇珊,這是我的名片)
下面是對話:
A: Mum, this is Peter. I mentioned him to you yesterday. He is my new boyfriend!
B: Oh, yeah, I see. Glad to meet you, Peter.
C: Glad to meet you too, Mrs Back. This is my calling card.
B: Oh, the manager of IMC. How come? Mary, you said last night he was only a milkman…
