[誤] - Your handwriting is very good!��

　　- No， my handwriting is very poor�� ��

　　[正] - Your handwriting is very good!��

　　- Thank you�� ��

　　[析] 中國人遇到別人稱贊，總是以謙遜為美德。但英美人則往往認為自信是美德。所以當(dāng)別人夸獎你或贊美你時，就應(yīng)說： Thank you�� 又比如中國人見面時常講 Where are you going? 或 Have you had your breakfast yet?而英美人則認為你過多的干預(yù)別人的私生活了。而他們見面時往往問一些無關(guān)緊要的話，如： Hello! How are you going? (你過得怎樣) Morning! 等。而 good morning�� 和 How do you do�� 則被認為是較正規(guī)的問候語，在日常生活中則十分少見。��

　　[誤] When you have had dinner with an American friend and want to leave you may say： "Excuse me�� I'll go first��" ��

　　[正] When you have had dinner with an American friend and want to leave you may say： "Excuse me�� I have to go��" ��

　　[析] 這兩句答語都是正確的，其關(guān)鍵不是語法，而是習(xí)慣問題。如果在這樣的場合你講 I'll go first�� 朋友們會迷惑不解，而 I have to go�� 則表示由于外界的特殊原因而造成的你要離去，而你本人則十分不愿做此事。��

　　[誤] - Would you like to come to dinner tonight?��

　　- I'd like to， and I'm too busy�� ��

　　[正] - Would you like to come to dinner tonight?��

　　- I'd like to， but I'm too busy�� ��

　　[析] I'm too busy�� 與 I'd like to�� 在意義上正好相反。所以要用轉(zhuǎn)折連詞。這里考查了對詞義合乎邏輯的表達能力。所以要強調(diào)語言環(huán)境，更要強調(diào)在語言的基礎(chǔ)上的詞語辨析。��

　　[誤] - Where's Deter?��

　　- Deter will come with us tonight but he isn't very sure yet�� ��

　　[正] - Where's Deter?��

　　- Deter may come with us tonight but he isn't very sure yet�� ��

　　[析] 由于 but 所引出的句子可以看出 Deter 的來與不來是十分不確定的，所以應(yīng)用 may 來表達一個不肯定的事件。��

　　[誤] - Hi， haven't seen you for ages! You look fine!��

　　- Great�� You look well too�� ��

　　[正] - Hi， haven't seen you for ages! You look fine!��

　　- Thanks�� You look well too�� ��

　　[析] 要注意的是 Great 在口語中多表示驚嘆，而 Thanks 則表示感謝對方的稱贊。�ニ�以對情景談話要有準確的判定，要根據(jù)情景，身臨其境，上下對照，周密思考，弄清場合，注意英美人的風(fēng)俗習(xí)慣，注重語義上的詞語辨析，并要進行大量的語言實踐練習(xí)，擴大實際交際能力。
