: j, y; R& ^) z- V1 E: e' a2. 这个价格对我挺合适的。

6 h; E! K6 v# W9 d8 F9 d6 S7 A4 d# N R: The price is right.$ }( R2 X$ p. G' q( j
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。7 o: I. P/ m4 N. G: `+ W

3. 你是做什么工作的呢？What’s your job?
8 O: y M c% ^( F# L1 @ R: Are you working at the moment?
2 U" T& b8 M9 h& s5 V 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8 y) u. T! i4 H. y

6 A) @0 S1 Z2 A. P R: How do you say this in English?4 E }- ~, o5 b7 G
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 you9 f. {- ~: ]& \* |6 {

5. 明天我有事情要做。I have something to do tomorrow?* u( h- Z7 a0 s7 A0 z
R: Sorry but I am tied up all day tomorrow.
' M" v9 F% L7 F7 L& @7 C" y 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./ `2 }. J" T) \. b5 D$ k1 ?+ }

6. 我没有英文名。I haven’t English name.
4 N, _* N. D, `- F! E7 h R: I don’t have an English name.
. u. i! r& s0 g f 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。( Y. ?. }+ A' y# B, 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.. I' U% X, j! m9 a9 E
" s* Z" }' K' y2 P7. 我想我不行。I think I can’t.
5 J# _: J( [& L R: I don’t think I can.
9 l$ m9 `5 j' m" [+ Y 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，

8. 我的舞也跳得不好。I don’t dance well too.- q; C6 y" O: G) w7 V6 ]; U6 G
R: I am not a very good dancer either.' }. v8 Y. \0 H0 D6 |$ W/ |
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。6 k7 c" l9 D0 G- F; W1 J8 Z
$ i* O7 w9 G& D. `: V0 g( o# I- O9. 现在几点钟了？What time is it now?# @' w- h* s8 ?' i6 L
R: What time is it, please?
; t" l o& d/ O0 ~3 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

10. 我的英语很糟糕。My English is poor.- f! N* l) H# k6 r9 ?" n o
R: I am not 100% fluent, but at least I am improving.
! Y; H& W+ S8 e3 ?) t; d 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。

R: Would you like to come to our party on Friday night?3 @6 I& P" G- R1 g5 g
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。4 z# G% Z! R6 b; T/ r& U9 X

; B4 r! T8 ^( F; G2 H$ v! W8 I Note：I have no experience这句话听起来古里古怪，因为您只需要说：那方面我懂得不多，或者这方面我不在行，就行了。I am not really an expert in this area.4 t5 e+ P, o' Q0 s2 E2 ~* c

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。
" i: r* k9 @ V& D5 Z( u; N' y R: Sure. / Certainly.（这种说法是正确的）
9 \# ~5 x7 M% T$ A0 u 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. ! Z2 r& j* ~+ ]1 z! ]4 R
