職場英語口語 第28期:批評

字號:

在遇到別人工作上有錯誤的時候,一定要婉轉(zhuǎn)的向他人指出,不要表面上說好,但是心里埋怨。這樣很可能造成對方的重復(fù)錯誤。但同時也要注意自己的語氣,要委婉,畢竟人非圣賢,孰能無過,下一個出錯的可能就是你自己哦。
    Try to be better next time. And please let me know if you have any problem doing this.
    下次盡量做的更好吧。如果工作上有什么困難一定要記得跟我說哦。
    I have confidence that you could be more professional.
    我對你有信心,下次一定會做的更專業(yè)的。
    I need more detail-oriented. So try to do some improvement on this report.
    我需要更具體的資料,再改進一下這份報告吧。
    What you have done is not up to standard. And I’m wondering if there is anything I can help?
    你做的不符合標(biāo)準(zhǔn)。有什么我可以幫忙的嗎?
    與智慧有關(guān)的習(xí)語
    英語中與智慧有關(guān)的習(xí)語十分普遍,了解它們對于提高我們的英語水平很有幫助。下面就是一些常見的相關(guān)習(xí)語。
    1. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.
    直譯為“一盎司的預(yù)防勝過一英鎊的治療”。其意思就是從一開始就細心準(zhǔn)備,考慮周全的話,就不會失敗。這句話十分地道,形象。下面有一個例子:
    A: Don’t you think you should deal with this problem now?
    B: I will do something about it tomorrow.
    A: An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.
    2. Appearances are deceiving.
    這則典故出自伊索寓言中《老鼠與獅子》中的教訓(xùn),告誡人們外表是欺騙人的東西。同樣這句話也可以說成“Looks are deceiving.”下面是一個例子:
    A: How’s Alice doing? Are you going to fire her?
    B: Appearances are deceiving. She’s the best assistant I have.
    A: Really? I didn’t think she could do anything.
    3. Brevity is the soul of wit.
    這是莎翁名著《哈姆雷特》中的人物尼斯的臺詞,意思是“簡潔是智慧的精髓?!边@句話對人說話,寫作等都有重要的啟迪。
    A: I’m supposed to give a speech today. Do you have any advice?
    B: Just remember, brevity is the soul of wit.
    4. Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me.
    按照字面意思來看,這句話是說一次被騙是騙者的羞恥;兩次被騙是受騙者的羞恥。其實是在告戒人們要善于吸取教訓(xùn),引以為戒,否則一再受到損失就是自己的問題。下面給大家一個例子:
    A: I did a stupid thing. I lent John some money.
    B: Again? This is the third time.
    A: I know. Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me.
    5. Rules are made to be broken.
    這句話源自1953年Arthur C. Clarke的 Expedition to Earth中的話告誡人們要擺脫思想的束縛敢于創(chuàng)新和挑戰(zhàn)。
    A: Let’s order a pizza for meeting.
    B: But there’s a rule against eating in the office.
    A: Rules are made to be broken.
    6. The best thing comes in small packages.
    這是用于送禮物的說法,意思是放在小箱子里的禮物總是珍貴的。有時也可以說“Precious diamonds come in small packages.”
    A: What did George give you?
    B: I don’t know, but this package is so tiny.
    A: The best thing comes in small packages.
    當(dāng)然這只是有關(guān)智慧的習(xí)語的一部分,平時學(xué)習(xí)中我們可以多加積累,不僅對提高英語水平有幫助,而且可以幫助我們深入了解英語國家的文化。頻的口語小詞
