Note：suitable(合适的、相配的)最常见的用法是以否定的形式出现在告示或通知上，如：下列节目儿童不宜。The following programme is not suitable for children在这组句子中用后面的说法会更合适。

R: Are you working at the moment?( S$ n$ b6 Y/ Z* o' i
Note：what’s yourjob这种说法难道也有毛病吗？是的。因为如果您的谈话对象刚刚失业，如此直接的问法会让对方有失面子，所以您要问：目前您是在上班吗？Are youworking at the moment?接下来您才问：目前您在哪儿工作呢？Where are you working thesedays?或者您从事哪个行业呢？What line of work are youin?顺带说一下，回答这类问题时不妨说得具体一点，不要只是说经理或者秘书& h# M$ | y: p

Note：How to say是在中国最为泛滥成灾的中国式英语之一，这决不是地道的英语说法。同样的句子有：请问这个词如何拼写？How do you+ T6 v/ |; o. U* H3 k

) ]/ Z$ ^( L0 h' r0 d R: Sorry but I am tied up all day tomorrow.
( l O5 {% u" P% o Note: 用I have something todo来表示您很忙，这也完全是中国式的说法。因为每时每刻我们都有事情要做，躺在那里睡大觉也是事情。所以您可以说我很忙，脱不开身：I’m tiedup.还有其他的说法：I’m I can’t make it at that time. I’d love to, but I can’t,I have to stay at home.

, u# P3 m9 I# e- `) G) ^ R: I don’t have an English name. e8 B" s1 L& z& h* H
Note：许多人讲英语犯这样的错误，从语法角度来分析，可能是语法功底欠缺，因为have在这里是实义动词，而并不是在现在完成时里面那个没有意义的助动词。所以，这句话由肯定句变成否定句要加助动词。. x) b1 O% d& b% c% t$ _8 ^( M
明白道理是一回事，习惯是另一回事，请您再说几话：我没有钱；I don’t have any money.我没有兄弟姐妹；I don’t have any brothers or sisters.我没有车。I don’t have a car.

R: I don’t think I can.7 t8 U0 [, w+ E- Q* m U4 Z G
Note：这一组然是个习惯问题，在语法上称为否定前置，这就是汉语里面说“我想我不会”的时候，英语里面总是说“我不认为我会”。以后您在说类似的英语句子的时候，只要您留心，也会习惯英语的说法的，

Note：当我们说不擅长做什么事情的时候，英语里面通常用not good at something，英语的思维甚至直接踊跃到：我不是一个好的舞者。

9. 现在几点钟了？What time is it now?
3 N! ? l& |6 `6 B$ u R: What time is it, please?- }% F0 R) m5 D$ F' S' V u9 p
Note：What time is it now这是一个直接从汉语翻译过的句子，讲英语的时候没有必要说now, 因为您不可能问what time was it yesterday, 或者what time is it tommorow?所以符合英语习惯的说法是：请问现在几点了？还有一种说法是：How are we doing for time?这句话在有时间限制的时候特别合适4 y6 j$ c) n9 ]

R: I am not 100% fluent, but at least I am improving.' E9 P# @ T3 f: \% K" @5 W
Note：有人开玩笑说，全中国人最擅长的一句英文是：My English is poor.实话说，我从来没有遇到一个美国人对我说：My Chinese is poor. 无论他们的汉语是好是坏，他们会说: I am still having a few problem, but I getting better. 当您告诉外国人，您的英语很poor，so what(那又怎么样呢)，是要让别人当场施舍给我们一些英语呢，还是说我的英语不好，咱们不谈了吧。一个更大的弊端是，一边不停的学英语，一边不停地说自己的英语很poor, 这正像有个人一边给车胎充气，又一边在车胎上扎孔放气。所以您不用说：我的英语很poor. 您可以实事求事地说，我的英语还不算十分流利，但至少我在进步。

& ^0 N5 M' T" I Note：join往往是指参加俱乐部或者协会，如：join a health club; join the CommunistParty.事实上，常常与party搭配的动词的come 或者go。如go a wild party，或者come to aChristmas Party。

18. 这个春节你回家吗？Will you be going back home for the Spring Festival? 是的，我回去。Of course! （这一句是错的）当然。1 m/ ^* R) o. P" p9 U
R: Sure. / Certainly.（这种说法是正确的）' `, {+ q) a3 K5 V% q8 x N
Note: 以英语为母语的人使用of course的频率要比中国的学生低得多，只有在回答一些众所周知的问题时才说of course。因为ofcourse后面隐含的一句话是“当然我知道啦！难道我是一个傻瓜吗？”因此，ofcourse带有挑衅的意味。在交谈时，用sure或certainly效果会好得多。同时，of coursenot也具挑衅的意味。正常情况下语气温和的说法是certainly not.
