舞会交际法
参加舞会,做到礼貌交际,必须注意以下三个方面:
①服饰整洁大方,忌浓施粉黛,珠光宝气。
②舞步与旋律和谐,头不乱摆,肩不乱动,手不乱晃。
③待人落落大方,女宾不应随便拒绝懂礼貌、讲文明的邀舞者;男宾在对方婉言谢绝时不可勉强对方

— What can I do for you?
— ____________________.
A. I want a kilo of apples B. You can go your own way
C. Thanks D. Excuse me. I'm busy
这题的答案是 A. I want a kilo of apples
为什么是A呢?对话的第一句是 What can I do for you ? 这是一句典型的“服务行业”用语,在不同的情景中可以理解为不同的意思:
在商店里就是:“你买什么?”
在其他公共场合就是:“我能帮您做什么?”
这里的四个选项中B C D选项即不是希望对方为自己作什么,也不是要买什么。只有A的回答是“要买一公斤苹果。”只有A与所给的问题组成了一段意思合理,又符合逻辑的对话。所以A是正确答案。
例题二:
— Do you mind telling me where you're from?
— _____________________.
A. Certainly. I'm from London. B. Sure. I was born in London.
C. Not really, you can do it. D. Certainly not. I'm form London.
Do you mind ? 句型,回答时:
如果是肯定的如,yes, certainly 那就是我在意,请你不要做什么
如果自己不在意,回答应该是: No, not at all.
这道题的干扰因素是:A B D 都回答了 I'm from London. 或 I was born in London. 它们都回答了 Where are you from? 这个提问。这说明这三个回答前面的用语是正确与否的关键。A B 一个用了 Certainly 一个用了 Sure 。肯定的回答,它违反了英语回答 Do you mind? 这类问题的习惯。只有 Certainly not. I'm from London. 是正确答案。
例题三:
— Do you think I could borrow your dictionary?
— _____________________.
A. Yes, you may borrow. B. Yes, go on.
C. Yes, help yourself. D. It doesn't matter.
对方问“我能借你的字典吗?”
四个回答都好象是肯定的回答,看不出又什么不对。但是如果理解了每一个回答,就能分辨出哪一个是最合适的回答。
A. you may borrow. 你可以借。
B. go on 请继续。继续什么呢?不清楚。D.It doesn't matter. 没关系。这个回答好象对方作错了什么事。
C. Yes, help yourself. 自己动手(等于说:拿吧)所以C是正确答案。
从上面三个例子,我们是不是可以总结出下面的几条规律:
交际用语的答案不是明显的对错问题,它是是否符合口语习惯的问题。答题时,不是寻找错误,而是判断语言的使用是否规范。
要熟悉各种情景的对话用语,这样可以在短时间内,判断对话发生的地点和场景。
要熟悉西方人们日常的交际习惯,礼貌规则。这里所说的人们交往的交际习惯应该是西方文化中的习惯,而不是我们东方文化中,特别是我们自己生活中习惯了的交往方式。
这里特别提醒大家注意:我们是在说英语,不是用英语的句型套用汉语的习惯。比如在中国,当人们夸奖我们英语讲得不错的时候,我们会很谦虚地回答:“讲得不好,还得好好学习。”但是,这个回答不同于西方文化中的习惯。在英语里,我们就会回答:“Thank you.”表示感谢。在交际用语中,考生应该选择符合西方文化的语言,特别注意 Thank you和Sorry 的使用。
