tips:
在西方,与别人会面办事往往需要事先预约。否则很可能见不到要找的人,因为每个人都有自己的schedule。 约定时间时,可询问对方什么时间方便,也可以建议一个时间征询对方意见。不速之客往往不受欢迎,因为这会使别人不得不改变原有的计划。在约好时间地点后如fail to make it, 则应及早通知对方,另行安排时间。在通知对方时,首先应向对方道歉, 接着说明取消约会的原因,然后请对方另行约定一个时间。
【精彩短句】
什么时间对您比较方便?
What time would be convenient for you?
What time would you like me to meet you?
What time would suit you?
What time do you think is best for me to see you?
When are you free?
What time will you be in?
What time will you be available?
【文化ABC】--钟表的奴隶(1)
有这样一种说法,即美国人是钟表的奴隶。对他们来说,时间是一种珍贵的商品。
通常情况下,美国人是不会与记者进行长时间闲谈的;也不会把时间花费在饭桌前,通过宴请客人来建立友谊关系或联络感情。对大多数人来说,友好关系比不上实际表现重要。所以,在与客人简单,礼节性地寒暄后,他们很快就会谈及正题。由于人们非常珍贵时间,他们很讨厌那些不知趣地浪费别人时间的人。
