表達(dá)贊美時(shí)需要注意以下情況: 1、贊美一兩句即可,當(dāng)別人表示感謝之后就可打住,或進(jìn)入別的話(huà)題。 2、若別人向你展示新買(mǎi)的衣服等,即便你對(duì)它感覺(jué)不如意,也要盡量發(fā)現(xiàn)你感興趣的地方,如顏色、樣式等加以贊美。 3、中國(guó)人很少當(dāng)面夸贊別人的妻子長(zhǎng)得如何漂亮,而在西方文化中, 對(duì)別人妻子的贊美是活躍氣氛并且很受歡迎的。不過(guò),贊美之后,你的眼睛久久不能從那女士的臉上挪開(kāi),可就另當(dāng)別論了。 4、贊美別人的首飾或衣服之后不要畫(huà)蛇添足, 問(wèn)她一句,"It must be very expensive. How much is it?"(這一定很貴吧。多少錢(qián)???) 5、無(wú)論別人怎樣贊美你,你只要一句"Thanks a lot."就足以達(dá)到交流的效果,無(wú)須中國(guó)式的謙虛,"No, No",會(huì)讓贊美你的人莫明其妙,甚至認(rèn)為你懷疑他的審美觀(guān)有問(wèn)題。 6、美國(guó)老師上課時(shí)大多慈悲為懷,只要學(xué)生開(kāi)口,無(wú)論怎樣信口開(kāi)河或者牛頭不對(duì)馬嘴,老師都會(huì)說(shuō)"Good job!";"Very nice!";"Ok, you have a creative answer";"What an original opinion!".這既能鼓勵(lì)學(xué)生,又能激發(fā)學(xué)生參與的積極性。這可是中國(guó)老師不妨學(xué)學(xué)的地方。 7、在英美國(guó)家的各種聚會(huì)上,女士們??滟澴约旱恼煞蛴心芰Γ滟澴约旱暮⒆尤绾温斆骺蓯?ài);男士們也常夸贊自己的妻子溫柔可人,夸贊自己的老板如何地重用自己,這既能活躍氣氛,又能盡顯自己人性美的一部分。若有機(jī)會(huì)你參加外國(guó)人的ball(舞會(huì)),你也不妨收起你的謙虛,將你的贊美適時(shí)適度地表達(dá)出來(lái)。 break one‘s heart 由break 和beart構(gòu)成的詞很多,如:hearbreak(極度傷心); hearbreaking(使心碎的),heat-broken(極度傷心的) ,大家可能注意到都是和"傷心"有關(guān),break one‘s heat 就是指?jìng)改橙说男摹?/p> 實(shí)戰(zhàn)運(yùn)用: A:You look so sad ! what happened B: I broke up with my girl friend yesterday A: Did you ?

B : But luckily you‘re all right now . brush to one side brush的意思是"推、拂"從字面上看,該習(xí)語(yǔ)的意思是:"把… …拂到一邊去,",由此引申為"不屑一顧" 實(shí)戰(zhàn)運(yùn)用: A : Helen‘s become so proud since she married that rich man . B : I once talked with her ,but she brushed all my suggestion to one side . A : She‘ll ask for it . B: Sure . butt in butt 有"沖、撞、冒冒失失地開(kāi)"的意思。在美國(guó)俚語(yǔ)中,butt in 指"干涉、插嘴". 實(shí)戰(zhàn)運(yùn)用: A: Don‘t butt in ,You‘re still wet behind the ears You know nothing about our business. B: Why don‘t you let me air my opinions ? I have no say in this house . A : What do you know about our business ? Your mum and I have been in trouble . B: That‘s why I wanted to know what the trouble is I might be of some help . by the way 這句話(huà)很簡(jiǎn)單,也很常用:順便問(wèn)一下 實(shí)戰(zhàn)運(yùn)用: A:Do you often keep in touch with Jane ? B: Yeah ,we call each other if we have time . A: I haven‘t seen her for a long time B :She changes a lot . A: I saw her last night ,By the way ,do you know ,she‘s married ? B: Yea ,with Johnson .
