電話(huà)小“靈通”

王六香

Unit 6有一段打電話(huà)的對(duì)話(huà),你知道如何用英語(yǔ)打電話(huà)嗎?

◆在西方國(guó)家,電話(huà)鈴響后,接電話(huà)的人拿起電話(huà)后,應(yīng)說(shuō)Hello,并“自報(bào)家門(mén)”,包括自己所在單位、住址或電話(huà)號(hào)碼。如:

Hello!This is No. 14 Middle School. 您好,這里是第十四中學(xué)。

Hello!5658508. 您好,這里是5658508。

◆電話(huà)中說(shuō)“我是……”要用“This is…”,而不能說(shuō)“I am…”。如:

Hello!5658508. This is Mr Wang. 您好,這里是5658508,我是王先生。

◆問(wèn)對(duì)方是誰(shuí)時(shí),不說(shuō)“Who are you?”而用“Whos that?”;如問(wèn)對(duì)方“是……嗎?”不說(shuō)“Are you…?”而要用“Is that…?”。如:

Hello, this is Bill. Whos that? 您好,我是比爾,您是哪位?

——Is that Mrs Green? 您是格林夫人嗎?

——Yes. Whos that? 是的,您是哪位?

◆打電話(huà)問(wèn)某人在不在時(shí),常用Hello!May/Could I speak to…? (您好,我可以和×××通電話(huà)嗎?)如果對(duì)方要找的人正是你,你應(yīng)該說(shuō):Yes, speaking!如果對(duì)方要找的人不在,你應(yīng)該說(shuō):Sorry, he/she isnt here.(對(duì)不起,他/她不在這兒。) 如:

——Hello. May/Could I speak to Mike? 您好,我可以和邁克通電話(huà)嗎?

——Yes, speaking. 是的,我就是。

——Hello!May/Could I speak to Miss Wang? 您好!我可以和王小姐通電話(huà)嗎?

——Sorry, she isnt here. 對(duì)不起,她不在。

◆當(dāng)打電話(huà)結(jié)束時(shí),要說(shuō)“Bye-bye!/See you./Thanks for calling.”之類(lèi)的告別語(yǔ)。

同學(xué)們,相信你已經(jīng)會(huì)用英語(yǔ)打電話(huà)了吧!下面是2009年襄樊市中考英語(yǔ)題,請(qǐng)你拿起筆將它補(bǔ)充完整,好嗎?

根據(jù)對(duì)話(huà)內(nèi)容,從方框中選擇4個(gè)恰當(dāng)?shù)木渥油瓿蓪?duì)話(huà)。

A. Well, how about Town Cinema?

B. Hi, Mary. Are you free this evening?

C. I?蒺m sorry to hear that.

D. May I speak to Mary, please?

E. Sure. I'd love to. Where?
