PART THREE. The Lesson
SHOPPING 買東西
1. OPENING WORDS 開始交談
你到商店買東西,售貨員過來照應(yīng),問你需要什么,說法有多種。你在回答的時(shí)候也有好幾種說法。
Can I/May I help you?
Thanks. I'm looking for...
Is someone looking after you?
No. I'd like to see...
Are you right?
Mmm. I'm after some...
如果是你主動問售貨員,你可以說:
Can you help me?
Have you got any...?
Can you tell me where X is, please?
算帳的時(shí)候,售貨員可能問:
Is that all?
你可以回答:
Yes,thanks.
售貨員也可能問:
Is there something/anything* else?
你可以回答:
No, that's all, thanks.
*如果售貨員用anything這個(gè)詞,只是問顧客“還要不要買什么別的東西?”如果用something 這個(gè)詞,
就說明售貨員更積極的表示希望顧客多買些東西。
2. PRICES 價(jià)格
買東西總要涉及價(jià)格,請參看對話。
注意:有的商品論個(gè)兒買,例如 10 for 90c.
有的商品論分量,例如 A dollar a kilo ($1 per kg).
在商店里,往往可以聽到這樣的對話:
SHOPPER:How much are these sandals?
ASSISTANT: They're $17.50.
SHOPPER: OK. I'll have them. They're nice.
ASSISTANT: And here's your change.$2.50.
3. QUANTITY 數(shù)量
買東西又會牽涉到可數(shù)名詞和不可數(shù)名詞:
COUNTABLES UNCOUNTABLES
apples coffee
biscuits orange juice
oranges tea
可數(shù)名詞與不可數(shù)名詞的用法有以下兩點(diǎn)區(qū)別:
a) 可數(shù)名詞可以用單數(shù),也可以用復(fù)數(shù)。
例如: Here's a biscuit.
Here are SOME biscuits.
不可數(shù)名詞則只能用單數(shù),例如:
Here's SOME tea.
b) 與之連用的表示數(shù)量的詞語也有所不同。例如:
i) There are only A FEW biscuits.(可數(shù)名詞)
There's only a little/a bit of rice.(不可數(shù))
ii) There isn't MUCH tea.Have we got much coffee?(不可數(shù)名詞)
There aren't MANY oranges. Have we got many bananas?(可數(shù)名詞)
注意:
在肯定的陳述句里,無論是與可數(shù)名詞還是與不可數(shù)名詞連用往往不同 much/many
而用 a lot of 或plenty of.
There's PLENTY/A LOT of tea. There are PLENTY/A LOT of biscuits.
ones (參看第5講第8部分第3點(diǎn)的注釋)這個(gè)詞用來代替上文已經(jīng)提到過的某個(gè)復(fù)數(shù)名詞。
例如: I'd like some apples.
some of the green ones,please.
PART FOUR . Background Material
澳大利亞的商店
在超級市場里,顧客自己從貨架上取貨(有的百貨商店也是這樣),但是在有的商店,例如
皮鞋商店,顧客需要售貨員幫忙。水果在大型無人售貨的市場里出售,也能在小的水果鋪?zhàn)永镔I到
——這種鋪?zhàn)永镉惺圬泦T照應(yīng)。
澳大利亞的商店,尤其是大的百貨公司,售貨員可能問顧客:您付現(xiàn)款還是記帳?有的顧客在
商店開立帳戶,每次買東西的時(shí)候記在帳上,按月結(jié)算。
順便說一下,在澳大利亞 first floor指二層;一層或底層叫 ground floor.
