越来越觉得自己走测试这条路是对的,越来越觉得自己适合做测试,这么久以来兴趣一直在激发我前进,一直在寻找下一个站点,我相信测试路上我一定会走的很远,我的测试道路一定会很宽阔,努力就有收获,也希望还在测试路口迷惘的朋友,不要再犹豫了,因为你的犹豫不决,会使你错过很多~~~~~喜欢就去just do it ,因为只有尝试了才知道自己适不适合,喜不喜欢。如果一味的问别人,永远找不到最终的答案。因为每个人的感觉不一样,每个人的情况不一样,每个人的前提条件都不一样,你会得到不同的答案,这样只能会使你更迷茫~~~~

    第三节 道歉用语
    【编者按】
    Everyone makes mistakes! But, not everyone knows how to make an apology. All too often the first response to a mistake is to blame someone else. Effectively expressing a sincere apology is a valuable function that will not only show off your English, it will also show off your excellent manners. Showing consideration for others is an important part of effective communication.
    金无足赤,人无完人,每个人都会犯错。但是,不是每个人都知道在犯错后该怎样道歉。大多数人经常在犯错后第一反应就是责备他人。及时有效地表达一份真诚的道歉是至关重要的,它不仅可以向他人显示你用英语道歉的水平,而且可以体现你雍容的风度。向他人表达你的体贴是人与人之间进行有效沟通的一个重要部分。
    25. sorry. / I’m sorry
    对不起。

    (你总说些伤害我感情的话。)

    【发音分析】
    ○1 (I’m) sorry.
    ○2Sorry I’m late.
    ○3I’m sorry to bother you.
    上组句子中含一个典型的、美国特有的“大嘴发音”[ɑ]。元音字母“o”在重读闭音节中,美音和英音的发音不同。这是英美发音的重大区别之一。这个音我们俗称为:“感叹祖国大好河山音”——“啊,祖国大好河山”。
    Crazy Admiration, Revelation, Exclamation Sound
    28.I’m sorry to interrupt you, but…

    29. I’m sorry to bother you, but… 
    对不起,打扰你了……
    【李阳老师的话】
    唐突地打断或打搅别人,是一种不礼貌的行为,有时甚至还会招致他人的不满。如果你以一种婉转的语气来说同一句话,效果肯定截然不同。不信?学完这句话你不妨试试看!

    ○2You helped me a lot.(你帮了我大忙。)
    ○3It means a lot to me.(它对我意义重大。)
    ○4You’ve been incredibly helpful.(你真是帮了我大忙。)

    20. My pleasure. 
    别客气
    【疯狂实战】
    ○1A: Thank you for reminding me to call my mother.
    (谢谢你提醒我打电话给我妈妈。)
    B: My pleasure.
    (不客气。)
    ○2A: Thank you for your help.
    (谢谢你的帮助。)
    B: My pleasure.
    (不用谢。)
    ○3A: You really helped me a lot.
    (你真给了我很多帮助。)
    B: My pleasure. Anytime.
    (别客气,随时乐意效劳。)
    【疯狂替换】
    ○1You’re welcome.(不客气。)
    ○2It’s my pleasure.(这是我的荣幸。)
    ○3Don’t mention it!(不客气!)
    21. Forget it!
      算了吧;别客气!
    【疯狂实战】
    ○1A: Thank you for lunch, it was wonderful.

    (你是想得最周到的人。谢谢你的花!)
    B: Forget it. It was nothing.
    (别客气。这没什么。)
    【疯狂讲解】
    “Forget it”除了此处提供的“别客气”的意思外,还有“算了吧”的含义。比如,当你的好朋友把前几天问你借来乘公共汽车的2块钱还回给你时,你就可以挥一挥衣袖潇洒地对他说“Forget it――算了吧,不用还了(钱又不多)”!
    22.You’re welcome.

    (谢谢你帮我把信寄了。)

    A: No problem. I just got paid. It's my treat.
    B: Thank you! I’ll be sure to return the favor after our first class, OK?
    A: Forget it! That’s what friends are for! Besides, I have a VIP card for a discount.

                   第二部分 日常交际口语要素


    第一单元 问候
     
    【编者按】
    Americans have so many different ways of greeting one another! In fact, many times an American greeting will consist of several greeting questions strung together. It is very common to hear a friend say,“Hi-Stone-What’s-up-how-are-you-doing-wow-I-haven’t-seen-you-how-have-you-been?”all in one breath. Although Americans generally believe that shorter is better, the function of greeting is an exception to the rule. Don’t be surprised if you are greeted in this way. Just practice the following greetings and responses until they become automatic. You’ll soon be saying “Wow-I’m-great-never-been-better-everything’s-going-my-way-how-about-you?”
      美国人彼此之间有很多种不同的问候方式。事实上,很多时候,一个美国式的问候经常由几个相连问候的问题连结起来。我们会很普遍地听到有人对你一口气说“嗨,Stone,怎么样?你好吗?我好久不见了,你最近怎么样?”尽管美国人一般认为问候越短越好,但是作为问候的功能可以将这个规则排除在外。如果你被人用这种连贯的方式问候千万不要惊讶。疯狂操练以下给出的问候句及其回应句,直到最后反应自如为止。你将很快会说:“噢,我很好,从来没有这样好过,事事顺心,你怎么样?”
    1. Hi!
    你好!
    【疯狂实战】
    ○1A: Hi!
    (你好!)
    B: Hi!
    (你好!)
    ○2A: Hi, Kim. How are you?
    (你好,Kim,近来怎样?)
    B: Fine. How are you doing?
    (很好。你怎样?)
    ○3A: Hi, I haven’t seen you for ages.
    (你好,很久不见了。)
    B: Wow, I know. It’s great to see you again.
    (是啊。很高兴又见到你。)
    Kim’s Note: This may sound simple, but it is very important. It is so common to hear people “singing” the word “Hello” when you walk through the streets of China. I think it is great that people know an English word, but they would get a lot more response with a friendly “hi”. Never underestimate a simple word. Even “hi” can make a big difference.
    这个词听起来简单,却非常重要。走在中国的街头,总能听到人们如唱歌般的“哼”着Hello。我觉得人们懂得一个英语单词是一件好事,但一个友好的“hi”却能让他们得到更多的回应。永远也不要低估了一个简单的单词,哪怕一个“hi”也会带来很大的不同。
    2. Nice to meet you.
    见到你很高兴。
    【疯狂实战】
    ○1A: Jim, this is my sister Susan.
    (Jim,这是我的妹妹Susan。)
    B: Hi, Susan. Nice to meet you.
    (你好,Susan,见到你很高兴。)
    ○2A: I’m Kim. Nice to see you here.
    (我叫Kim。很高兴在这儿见到你。)
    B: Nice to meet you, Kim.
    (见到你很高兴,Kim。)
    ○3A: Welcome to our office.
    (欢迎来到我们办公室。)
    B: Thanks. Nice to meet you.
    (谢谢。很高兴见到你们。)
    3. How are things going?
    近况如何?
    【疯狂实战】
    ○1A: Hi, Stone! How are things going?
    (你好,Stone!近况如何?)
    B: Couldn’t be better. How about you?
    (再好不过了。你呢?)
    ○2A: How are things going?
    (近况如何?)
    B: Fine, but I need to talk to you.
    (还好,但我得跟你谈谈。)
    ○3A: I just started my new job this week.
    (我这个星期才开始我的新工作。)
    B: I completely forgot. How are things going?
    (我都忘了。怎么样啊?)
    4. Keeping busy?
    近来忙吗?
    【疯狂实战】
    ○1A: Hi, Stone. Have you been keeping busy?
    (你好,Stone。近来忙吗?)
    B: Yeah. Too busy.
    (是啊,太忙啦。)
    ○2A: Hi, Eden. Have you been keeping busy?
    (你好,Eden。近来忙吗?)
    B: Not really. Just doing what I have to.
    (不太忙,只是做自己份内的事。)
    ○3A: What’s new Kim, keeping busy?
    (近来怎样,Kim,忙吗?)
    B: Sure, I’m busier than I’ve ever been!
    (是啊,比以前忙的时候还要忙!)
    5. How are you doing?
    你好吗?
    【疯狂实战】
    ○1A: How are you doing?
    (你好吗?)
    B: I’m OK. How about you?
    (我很好,你呢?)
    ○2A: Kim, this is my little brother Mike.
    (Kim,这是我弟弟Mike。)
    B: How are you doing, Mike?
    (你好吗,Mike?)
    ○3A: I heard that you just got divorced. How are you doing?
    (听说你刚离了婚。你好吗?)
    B: OK, I guess.
    (我想,还可以。)
    6. How’s everything?
      一切都好吗?
    【疯狂实战】
    ○1A: How’s everything?
    (一切都好吗?)
    B: Pretty good.
    (很好。)
    ○2A: How’s everything?
    (一切都好吗?)
    B: So-so.
    (马马虎虎。)
    ○3A: Sorry I’m so late getting back to the office. How’s everything?
    (很抱歉我这么晚才到办公室。一切都好吗?)
    B: Everything’s fine.
    (一切正常。)
    7. How have you been?
    近来怎样?
    【疯狂实战】
    ○1A: Hi, Stone! How have you been?
    (你好Stone!近来怎样?)
    B: Great! What about you? 
    (好极了!你呢?)
    ○2A: How have you been?
    (近来怎样?)
    B: OK, I guess. How about you? 
    (还不错。你呢?)
    ○3A: I haven’t seen you for ages. How have you been?
    (很久没见了,近来怎样?)
    B: Oh, I’ve been super. And yourself?
    (噢,我好极了。你呢?)
    8. What’s new?
    近来怎样?
    【疯狂实战】
    请想想“What’s new!” “激进”的英语回答。“近来怎么样?”——“很好” 、“非常棒” 、“棒极了”等等。一个人如果经常处于自我激发的状态,久而久之,便会溶入自己的身心,形成强大的内动力。心态改变,就能改变自己的世界。
    本书中对应的回答很多,要学会灵活运用,而不要拘泥于特定的句子和对话。
    【疯狂实战】
    ○1A: What’s new?
    (近来怎样?)
    B: Nothing special./ Nothing much.
    (还好。)
    ○2A: What’s new?
    (近来怎样?)
    B: Same as usual.
    (和往常一样。)
    ○3A: Hi, Kim. What’s new?
    (你好,Kim。最近怎么样?)
    B: Not too much. And you? Keeping busy?
    (没什么变化,你呢?还那么忙吗?)
    9. What’s up?
    近来忙什么?
    【疯狂实战】
    ○1A: Hi, Jim. What’s up?
    (你好,Jim。近来忙什么?)
    B: Nothing.
    (没忙什么。)
    ○2A: Hello, Bill. What’s up?
    (你好,Bill。近来忙些什么?)
    B: Nothing really. What about you?
    (没忙什么。你呢?)
    ○3A: Hi,Kim. It’s good to see you.
    (你好,Kim,见到你真高兴。)
    B: Yeah, it sure is. What’s up?
    (是啊,近来好吗?)
    10. What’s happening?
    怎么样?
    【外国专家的话】
    A response to “What’s happening?” would never be “Not bad.” For, although “What’s happening?” can stand in for “How are you?”, “What’s happening?” still maintains its literal meaning – “What’s going on?”
    A good response might be “Same old same old.” or “Nothing much”.
    “Same old same old.” means something like: “Nothing’s new. Same old things are going on. Nothing’s changed. Just the usual things are going on”.
    “Not bad.(还好。/不错)”不能用来回答“What’s happening?”。因为,尽管“What’s happening?”可以用来表示“How are you?(你好吗?)”这层意思,但是“What’s happening?”仍然保留着它的字面意思——“What’s going on?(发生了什么事?)”。
    恰当的回答应该是:“Same old same old.(老样子,老样子。)”或“Nothing much.(一般。)”
    “Same old same old.”的意思类似于“没什么新鲜事发生,原来的事情还在进行。没有什么改变的,一切如常。”
    【疯狂实战】
    ○1A: Hey, man! What’s happening?
    (嘿,伙计!怎么样?)
    B: Nothing much.
    (一般。)
    ○2A: Hi, Bill. What’s happening?
    (嗨,Bill。怎么样?)
    B: Same old same old. What’s going on with you ?
    (老样子,老样子。你怎么样了?)
    ○3A: Hey, long time no see, what’s happening?
    (嘿,好久不见,过得怎么样?)
    B: Not a whole lot.
    (一般。)

  • 职场英语之打电话

    2009-07-13 10:30:04


    电话铃声响起) 

    VERA:CRI Online. May I help you? 

    REAF:May I talk to Kelly please? 

    VERA:And you are? 

    REAF:This is Reaf from BBC. I’m calling to check my mail. 

    VERA:I'll put her on the phone. Just a second . 

    REAF:Thanks. 

    (场景结束) 

    1.这大概是办公室电话中最常见的一段对话了。 

    我们先来看第一句:“CRI Online. May I help you?”。一般接起电话的人通常会先报公司的名字,然后再说, "May I help you?" 或是如果要更客气一点的话则可以说 "How can I help you?" (我该怎么帮你?),意思是我能为你做什么。 

    不过如果是机器应答,那么你很可能听到这样的一段话: 

    "Thanks for calling CRI Online, please dial the extension or press 0 get to the operator" 

    感谢你打电话到CRI来,请直接拨分机号,如需转总机, 请拨“0”。 

    2.And you are? 你是? 

    通常我们要先确定一下对方的身份,避免不必要的骚扰。And you are? 是比较口语化的讲法。如果想要问得客气点,我们还可以说"Whom I am speaking with?" 或是 "Whom am I talking to?" 

    3. I'll put her on the phone. Just a second. 

    我会请她听电话, 请等一下。 

    确认之后,当然就是把电话转接给对方要找的人了。Put someone on the phone 的意思就是请某人听电话。 

    如果你是打电话来找人的一方,你可以说 

    "Could you please put Kelly on the phone?" 你能不能请kelly来听电话啊? 

    反过来如果你是接到电话的人,而对方要找的是别人,你就可以说: 

    "Ok. I'll put her on the phone. Just a second." 好的,我会请她听电话, 请稍等一下。 

    当然如果公司有多部分机,那你很有可能会听到如下的答复: 

    "I'm transferring your call." 或是 "I'm redirecting your call.",意思是我帮你转接到分机给她。 

    transfer 或者 redirect.既“转接”的意思。

    问:5年之内你想处于什么位置?

    答:我希望有机会在工厂或国内办事处工作。我也希望通过管理一个小团体发展我的管理技能。 

    不要给出具体的时限或工作头衔。谈你喜欢的东西,你天生的技能,实际的问题和在你所选的领域或行业里你希望有什么机会,你希望从那些经验中学点什么。不要谈论你在那些与你所应聘的工作无关的领域或行业里的目标。这是听起来很明显的道理,但是很多求职者会犯这个错误。不经意间你就表现出了对当前的领域或行业缺乏真正的兴趣。不用说,一失言马上就会把你从进一步的考虑中淘汰掉。

    Q: Where do you want to be in five years?

    A: I'd like to have the opportunity to work in a plant as well as at the home office.I also hope to develop my management skills,perhaps by managing a small staff.
    问:5年之内你想处于什么位置?
    答:我希望有机会在工厂或国内办事处工作。我也希望通过管理一个小团体发展我的管理技能。 
    不要给出具体的时限或工作头衔。谈你喜欢的东西,你天生的技能,实际的问题和在你所选的领域或行业里你希望有什么机会,你希望从那些经验中学点什么。不要谈论你在那些与你所应聘的工作无关的领域或行业里的目标。这是听起来很明显的道理,但是很多求职者会犯这个错误。不经意间你就表现出了对当前的领域或行业缺乏真正的兴趣。不用说,一失言马上就会把你从进一步的考虑中淘汰掉。
    Q: Where do you want to be in five years?
    A: I'd like to have the opportunity to work in a plant as well as at the home office.I also hope to develop my management skills,perhaps by managing a small staff.

    (20):描述你的理想职业
    Q:describe your ideal career. 
    A:Id like to stay in a field related to training no matter what happens.I was too interested in business to work at a university,but I believe that teaching is somehow in my blood.Ive been good at sales because I took the time to educate my clients.Now I look forward to training the new hires.   
    问:描述你的理想职业。
    答:不管发生什么事情,我都愿意在与培训有关的领域里工作。和在大学中教学的工作相比,我还是对商业感兴趣。但我相信从事教育是我的天性,我擅长销售是因为我愿意花时间去教我的客户。现在我热切盼望我能培训那些新招聘进来的人。
    谈及你喜欢的东西,你天生的技能,实际的问题或在这份特定工作或行业里你所期盼的机会,你希望从那些经验里学点什么东西。避免谈具体的时限和工作头衔。

    21):如果你有无限的时间和经济来源
    Q:If you had unlimited time and financial resources,how would you spend them? 
    A:Id love to be able to take several executive seminars on financial management that arent geared toward financial experts.Id also love to be able to shut down my department long enough to send everyone through an Outward Boundtype program.Finally,Id probably travel and look at foreign competitors,and enjoy the food along the way.What would you do?问:如果你有无限的时间和经济来源,你会怎样使用它们呢?
    答:我希望能参加几次不针对金融专家的有关金融管理的行政研讨会。我还希望能让我的部门放长假,把每一个人都派去参加外界的一些活动。最后,我很可能去旅游并考察一下外国竞争者,同时一路享受当地的美食,您呢? 
    虽然娱乐的事情谈起来很有诱惑力,但一定要紧扣工作或与行业相关的事务,或者紧扣与你应聘的这份工作的技能相关的努力上。例如,你正在应聘教书工作,你可能对义务教授成年人读书识字的项目感兴趣。这就证明了你对自己的工作领域的激情,即对教育重要性的一种信仰,即使是作为一种兴趣而毫无报酬都无所谓。
    22):年度总结
    Q:If this were your first annual review with our company, what would I be telling you right now?
    A:Youd be thanking me for a job well done and would be explaining how you look forward to continuing to see good work from me. Furthermore, I would anticipate your explaining how you really appreciated my putting in extra time on some key projects and how my creative thinking helped come up with some innovative solutions to existing problems.
    问:假如现在是你在我们公司做首次年度总结,我该告诉你一些什么呢?
    答:您要感谢我把工作完成得很好,并说明您渴望能够继续看到我工作的好成绩。更重要的是,我希望您能告诉我,您很欣赏我为一些重要项目加班加点工作的行为,还有我富有创造性的思维是如何有助于对存在的问题提出改革方案的。 
    很明显,在回答该问题时,你想给人留下积极的印象。“但愿您能更准时地出现”绝对不是一个好答案。记住,重点谈一两点你个人的优势。
    23):简历以外的东西

    Q:Tell me something about yourself that I didnt know from reading your resume.
    A:You wouldnt know that Ive managed my own small portfolio since I was sixteen,but I believe that its important for you to understand my interest in investment sales. Ive averaged a 12 percent return over the past eight years.
    问:告诉我一些有关你自己的但在你的简历上又没有反映出来的东西。
    答:你可能不知道我16岁就开始管理自己的投资组合,我认为你能理解我对投资销售方面的兴趣是重要的。在过去的8年里我平均每年获得12%的盈利。 
    不要只是重复简历上已有的东西,讲讲那些虽与你过去的从业经验无关但能反映你的个性和经验的独特的天赋或技能。
    24):了解这家公司
    Q:Tell me what you know about this company.
    A:I served as an intern analyst to a restaurant last summer,so I followed all the steakhouse chains closely.What youve done especially well is focus on a limited menu with great consistency among locations;the business traveler trusts your product anywhere in the U.S.Im particularly interested in your real estatefinance group and expansion plans.
    问:告诉我你了解这家公司的什么。
    答:去年夏天我作为一个实习的餐馆分析员与所有牛排连锁店联系密切。   
    你们做得特别好的是集中精力在有限的品种上,使各地能保持高度统一。商业游客都信任你们在美国任一个店的产品。但我特别感兴趣的是你们的不动产资金小组和扩展计划。
    描述你第一次或是近来邂逅该公司或其产品及其服务的情况。是什么促使你想在那里工作而不是在另一家不同的公司里做同样类型的工作呢?招聘者会仔细观察反映你真正兴趣的方面,而不仅是你对该公司所做的一些表面上的调查了解。把公司的年度报告背出来不大可能会给招聘者留下印象,但把来自顾客和员工的一些反馈意见说出来可能会给招聘者留下印象。

    (25):别人那儿了解我们公司的情况
    Q:What have you learned about our company from customers,employees,or others? 
    A:I actually called several of the key accounts mentioned in your brochure.Two of the customers I spoke with explained why they continued to buy from you year after year.Your distribution operation is phenomenal.Are there any service improvements you think could still be made?
    问:你从我们公司的顾客、员工,或者别人那儿了解了我们公司的一些什么情况?
    答:我确实给你们小册子上提到的几个客户打过电话。我与之交谈的顾客中有两人解释了他们为什么年复一年地购买你们的产品。你们的供销运作是很棒的,但还有没有一些可提高的服务项目呢?
    叙述通过你个人与公司代表们的接触后,你的兴趣又是如何增长的。为面试进行而富有创造性地思考。例如,在你面试之前,和一些零售商或公司生产线上别的供销点的工人交谈。他们能告诉你一些什么?给出一到两个你所了解到的例子来解释你为什么对这家公司感兴趣。什么是你可以用来证明你兴趣的最有力的例子?
    (26):为什么你想在这里工作?
    Q:Why do you want to work here? 
    A:I lost a bid several years ago to your company.I realized then that products in the computer industry are becoming increasingly similar.Theyre so similar now,and retail prices are so competitive,that service is the best way for a company to distinguish itself from the competition.This company has the best service record of all its competitors,and I believe it will dominate the business in the long run. 
    问:为什么你想在这里工作?
    答:我几年前就错过了你们公司的一次招标,之后我意识到电脑产品变得越来越相近了,且零售价格的竞争愈趋激烈,以致服务成为了一家公司在竞争中脱颖而出的最好的方法。贵公司在所有的竞争者中享有最好的服务记录,而我相信从长远看,它将主宰这个行业。
    你的准备和调查研究工作应在这里明显表现出来。给出一到两个你对该公司感兴趣的原因,并表明什么最激发你的兴趣。什么是你可以叙述来表明你个人对该公司的认识的最有说服力的事情呢?它的产品还是它的员工?答案包括公司的信誉、对该工作本身的描述,或者是跻身于该企业的欲望。
    (27):有什么特别的方面使你最感兴趣? 
    Q:What particular aspect of the company interests you most?
