李陽(yáng)瘋狂英語(yǔ)突破口語(yǔ)要素MP3:日常交際口語(yǔ)要素[道歉用語(yǔ)]

字號(hào):

第三節(jié) 道歉用語(yǔ)
    【編者按】
    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.
    金無(wú)足赤,人無(wú)完人,每個(gè)人都會(huì)犯錯(cuò)。但是,不是每個(gè)人都知道在犯錯(cuò)后該怎樣道歉。大多數(shù)人經(jīng)常在犯錯(cuò)后第一反應(yīng)就是責(zé)備他人。及時(shí)有效地表達(dá)一份真誠(chéng)的道歉是至關(guān)重要的,它不僅可以向他人顯示你用英語(yǔ)道歉的水平,而且可以體現(xiàn)你雍容的風(fēng)度。向他人表達(dá)你的體貼是人與人之間進(jìn)行有效溝通的一個(gè)重要部分。
    25. sorry. / I’m sorry
    對(duì)不起。

    【李陽(yáng)老師的話】
    唐突地打斷或打攪別人,是一種不禮貌的行為,有時(shí)甚至還會(huì)招致他人的不滿。如果你以一種婉轉(zhuǎn)的語(yǔ)氣來(lái)說(shuō)同一句話,效果肯定截然不同。不信?學(xué)完這句話你不妨試試看!

    【發(fā)音分析】
    ○1 (I’m) sorry.
    ○2Sorry I’m late.
    ○3I’m sorry to bother you.
    上組句子中含一個(gè)典型的、美國(guó)特有的“大嘴發(fā)音”[ɑ]。元音字母“o”在重讀閉音節(jié)中,美音和英音的發(fā)音不同。這是英美發(fā)音的重大區(qū)別之一。這個(gè)音我們俗稱(chēng)為:“感嘆祖國(guó)大好河山音”——“啊,祖國(guó)大好河山”。
