1. I very like it

9 ], L+ L. l) @. [ Note：suitable(合适的、相配的)最常见的用法是以否定的形式出现在告示或通知上，如：下列节目儿童不宜。The following programme is not suitable for children在这组句子中用后面的说法会更合适。" [0 U5 o, o- \! \6 x- y# u. |

3. 你是做什么工作的呢？What’s your job?
5 ]* f: {" }, F h5 V- Y R: Are you working at the moment?+ x1 ^9 w9 ~: u, k
Note：what’s yourjob这种说法难道也有毛病吗？是的。因为如果您的谈话对象刚刚失业，如此直接的问法会让对方有失面子，所以您要问：目前您是在上班吗？Are youworking at the moment?接下来您才问：目前您在哪儿工作呢？Where are you working thesedays?或者您从事哪个行业呢？What line of work are youin?顺带说一下，回答这类问题时不妨说得具体一点，不要只是说经理或者秘书* S: t# a. h( B0 y' S9 {. @5 k$ w

4. 用英语怎么说？How to say?* p- F( T& F5 W# O& i. y" y
R: How do you say this in English?
$ B$ _4 S0 z; K* p G; z' R' K8 P' q Note：How to say是在中国最为泛滥成灾的中国式英语之一，这决不是地道的英语说法。同样的句子有：请问这个词如何拼写？How do you
. w* g1 _) L& L6 ?spell that please?请问这个单词怎么读？How do you pronounce this word?+ y2 z- Q" n5 S; _9 S5 e
; w2 z9 o Q. X2 r( e- d; j! n5. 明天我有事情要做。I have something to do tomorrow?) B& g) W. A7 q' \! c+ @ Q
R: Sorry but I am tied up all day tomorrow.
# J( q% x' E1 Y& ?) d Note: 用I have something todo来表示您很忙，这也完全是中国式的说法。因为每时每刻我们都有事情要做，躺在那里睡大觉也是事情。所以您可以说我很忙，脱不开身：I’m tiedup.还有其他的说法：I’m I can’t make it at that time. I’d love to, but I can’t,I have to stay at home.- d. H* Q; _2 R2 |, ^/ Z4 x; f

6. 我没有英文名。I haven’t English name.' D3 b; n, U/ n. v" J
R: I don’t have an English name.; K; a6 c2 W* \/ g `/ i
Note：许多人讲英语犯这样的错误，从语法角度来分析，可能是语法功底欠缺，因为have在这里是实义动词，而并不是在现在完成时里面那个没有意义的助动词。所以，这句话由肯定句变成否定句要加助动词。
+ M9 @: k+ S# a4 y: @3 J( X$ r 明白道理是一回事，习惯是另一回事，请您再说几话：我没有钱；I don’t have any money.我没有兄弟姐妹；I don’t have any brothers or sisters.我没有车。I don’t have a car.* Y0 ]+ O }% A
) z# N, A- g# c2 q! X7. 我想我不行。I think I can’t.
v! s7 e3 p6 v3 m R: I don’t think I can. U$ X4 {! V- I
Note：这一组然是个习惯问题，在语法上称为否定前置，这就是汉语里面说“我想我不会”的时候，英语里面总是说“我不认为我会”。以后您在说类似的英语句子的时候，只要您留心，也会习惯英语的说法的，

8. 我的舞也跳得不好。I don’t dance well too.. x' T3 U% I: l6 ^
R: I am not a very good dancer either.
% Z3 _- S7 L+ E- s Note：当我们说不擅长做什么事情的时候，英语里面通常用not good at something，英语的思维甚至直接踊跃到：我不是一个好的舞者。
9 F% i0 w* [' H" n3 @5 f1 f, b4 b( ]
$ O, m/ P/ h( R+ i7 L6 y9. 现在几点钟了？What time is it now?5 W! g& K$ ^& X# C" i- t
R: What time is it, please?
9 C7 X* H* O/ i0 C1 E2 E1 ] Note：What time is it now这是一个直接从汉语翻译过的句子，讲英语的时候没有必要说now, 因为您不可能问what time was it yesterday, 或者what time is it tommorow?所以符合英语习惯的说法是：请问现在几点了？还有一种说法是：How are we doing for time?这句话在有时间限制的时候特别合适

10. 我的英语很糟糕。My English is poor.9 j+ ?* M2 E9 O& z
R: I am not 100% fluent, but at least I am improving.: }5 o G9 l) g, H, l0 D
Note：有人开玩笑说，全中国人最擅长的一句英文是：My English is poor.实话说，我从来没有遇到一个美国人对我说：My Chinese is poor. 无论他们的汉语是好是坏，他们会说: I am still having a few problem, but I getting better. 当您告诉外国人，您的英语很poor，so what(那又怎么样呢)，是要让别人当场施舍给我们一些英语呢，还是说我的英语不好，咱们不谈了吧。一个更大的弊端是，一边不停的学英语，一边不停地说自己的英语很poor, 这正像有个人一边给车胎充气，又一边在车胎上扎孔放气。所以您不用说：我的英语很poor. 您可以实事求事地说，我的英语还不算十分流利，但至少我在进步。" J# U8 ]' q: H1 }

11. 你愿意参加我们的晚会吗？Would you like to join our party on Friday?
$ B- Z0 ~9 i3 G; U0 c/ w' p R: Would you like to come to our party on Friday night?' J H- ^$ u" d3 T4 ]/ _
Note：join往往是指参加俱乐部或者协会，如：join a health club; join the CommunistParty.事实上，常常与party搭配的动词的come 或者go。如go a wild party，或者come to aChristmas Party。& d+ b; @! q n; f

; j& v* g" T7 N3 B Note：I have no experience这句话听起来古里古怪，因为您只需要说：那方面我懂得不多，或者这方面我不在行，就行了。I am not really an expert in this area.2 p. r4 Q: u& k0 Z9 Y) R; e

18. 这个春节你回家吗？Will you be going back home for the Spring Festival? 是的，我回去。Of course! （这一句是错的）当然。
% ?$ K( t2 H0 O; S R: Sure. / Certainly.（这种说法是正确的）! w9 V8 @; X" {) @8 @: Z
Note: 以英语为母语的人使用of course的频率要比中国的学生低得多，只有在回答一些众所周知的问题时才说of course。因为ofcourse后面隐含的一句话是“当然我知道啦！难道我是一个傻瓜吗？”因此，ofcourse带有挑衅的意味。在交谈时，用sure或certainly效果会好得多。同时，of coursenot也具挑衅的意味。正常情况下语气温和的说法是certainly not. ! _* X, i- p) ^7 C
