熟练地运用英语的一个重要方面就是学习并掌握英语本族者常用的生动、的活泼的习语。
1. After you.你先请。这是一句很常用的客套话,在进/出门,上车得场合你都可以表现一下。 (好象现在女士不愿意你这么做,特别是那些女权主义者,我还记得这么一段话:一个女士对一个让她先行的男士说:You do this because I am a woman?那个男士回答说:I do this not because you are a woman but because I am a man! I love this guy!
2. I just couldnt help it.我就是忍不住。想想看,这样一个漂亮的句子可用于多少个场合?下面是随意举的一个例子:
I was deeply moved by the film and I cried and cried. I just couldnt help it.
3. Dont take it to heart. 别往心里去,别为此而忧虑伤神。生活实例:
This test isnt that important. Dont take it to heart. 安慰人的超级句子。
4. Wed better be off.我们该走了。Its getting late. Wed better be off .
5. Lets face it. 面对现实吧。常表明说话人不愿意逃避困难的现状。
参考例句:I know its a difficult situation. Lets face it, ok?
很棒啊,年轻人犯错误,上帝都会原谅,remember?但是犯了错误,你必须面对他,Lets face it。或者是:Lets face the music.
6. Lets get started.咱们开始干吧。劝导别人时说:Dont just talk. Lets get started.
Lets get started.
Lets start.
Lets do it right now.
Llets hit sth.
Lets rockroll.
Lets put our hands on sth.
7. Im really dead.我真要累死了。坦诚自己的感受时说:After all that work, Im really dead.
8. Ive done my best.我已尽力了。
这句话,很有用,失败有时难免,但是你要是可以说,Ive done my best. I spare no efforts。就不必遗憾,毕竟,Man supposes,god disposes.
9. Is that so?真是那样吗?常用在一个人听了一件事后表示惊讶、的怀疑。
10. Dont play games with me!别跟我耍花招!
11. I dont know for sure.我不确切知道。

23. That depends.看情况再说。 (on sth)
例:I may go to the airport to meet her. but that depends.
24. Congratulations.恭喜你,祝贺你。
25. Thanks anyway.无论如何我还是得谢谢你。当别人尽力要帮助你却没帮成时,你就可以用这个短语表示谢意。
