出国那些年,我们用英语吓晕了老外!
[size=4][font=Tahoma, "]情景1跟房东的对话[/font]
[color=#444444][font=Tahoma, "]有次房东问我: Did u eat anything yet?[/font][/color]
[color=#444444][font=Tahoma, "]我:No.[/font][/color]
[color=#444444][font=Tahoma, "]房东重复了一遍: So u didn’t eat anything.[/font][/color]
[color=#444444][font=Tahoma, "]我:Yes...[/font][/color]
[color=#444444][font=Tahoma, "]房东老太太犹豫了下,又问: Did u eat?[/font][/color]
[color=#444444][font=Tahoma, "]我说:No.[/font][/color]
[color=#444444][font=Tahoma, "]她接着说: So u didn’t eat.[/font][/color]
[color=#444444][font=Tahoma, "]我:Yes...[/font][/color]
[color=#444444][font=Tahoma, "]对于要崩溃的房东,却是无能为力。[/font][/color]
[font=Tahoma, "]Tip 1: [/font][color=#444444][font=Tahoma, "]英语中回答是或否与中文不一样,不管问句怎么变,如果你想说“我没吃过”,那就得回答"NO",一定要跟后面的内容对应。[/font][/color]
[color=#444444][font=Tahoma, "]比如:--你不喜欢瑜伽,对吧?[/font][/color]
[color=#444444][font=Tahoma, "]--是,我不喜欢。[/font][/color]
[color=#444444][font=Tahoma, "]应该说:--You don't like doing Yoga, right?[/font][/color]
[color=#444444][font=Tahoma, "]--No, I don't.[/font][/color]

情景2
在温哥华乘Skytrain(架空列车)的时候[/font]
[color=#444444][font=Tahoma, "]一个白人女人说: I am sorry.[/font][/color]
[color=#444444][font=Tahoma, "]我说: You are welcome. 对方都呆了。[/font][/color]
[font=Tahoma, "]Tip 2: [/font][color=#444444][font=Tahoma, "]"You are welcome"是用来回答"Thank you"的…… 可以用"Never mind.","That's OK.","That's alright."来回答"Sorry."[/font][/color]

情景3
第一次打电话叫TAXI[/font]
[color=#444444][font=Tahoma, "]对方问: Where you from?[/font][/color]
[color=#444444][font=Tahoma, "]我回答:China. (还在奇怪叫taxi还分国籍?)[/font][/color]
[color=#444444][font=Tahoma, "]对方可能以为我在搞笑,很郁闷的说: Sorry, we cannot do that...[/font][/color]
[color=#444444][font=Tahoma, "]我一听,火大!怎么有种族歧视啊?就问: Why!?[/font][/color]
[color=#444444][font=Tahoma, "]对方楞了半天,挂了……[/font][/color]
[font=Tahoma, "]Tip 3: [/font][color=#444444][font=Tahoma, "]在打车这种场合,老外问"Where you from",其实是想知道去哪里接你,地方[/font][/color][url=http://www.enfamily.cn/forum-24-1.html]口语[/url][color=#444444][font=Tahoma, "]中省略了"are"。[/font][/color]

[color=#444444][font=Tahoma, "]他随口就说,80% 。服务员又一愣说,sorry we don’t have that...[/font][/color]
[font=Tahoma, "]Tip 6: [/font][color=#444444][font=Tahoma, "]牛排全熟用"well done";七分熟是"medium well";五分熟是"medium";四分熟是"medium rare";三分熟是"rare"。另外,牛排没有八分熟……[/font][/color]

情景9
去超市[/font]

[color=#444444][font=Tahoma, "]问要多少,回复说: As much as possible![/font][/color]
[font=Tahoma, "]Tip 9:[/font][color=#444444][font=Tahoma, "] 在国外,超市收银台会有"cash back"的服务,如果你用借记卡付款,收银员会问你要不要顺便取点现金,这就是cash back。[/font][/color]
[color=#444444][font=Tahoma, "]例如,你买了15元的东西,收银员问"Do you want cash back?" 如果你正好需要一点现金用用,可以说"Yes, $25 please" 于是收银员在收银机上再输入25元,然后你用借记卡付40元,收银员则给你收据以及25元现金,这样你就省得去ATM或银行取款了。[/font][/color]
