英语口语情景对话职场常用英语句型大盘点
英语口语情景对话，职场常用英语句型大盘点 外企职员必备的一项基本技能。很多员工头疼自己的英文过不了关，一碰到要用英文进行文书或是要和老外进行交流就六神无主，今天小编特地为大家搜罗了一些经典且常用的句型，大家不妨做个有心人收藏着，莫到用时方恨少呢！ 1. I am writing to confirm /enquire/inform you… 我写信时要确认/询问/通知你… 2. I am writing to follow up on our earlier decision on the marketing campaign in Q2. 我写信来追踪我们之前对于第二季度营销活动的决定。 3. With reference to our telephone conversation today… 关于我们今天在电话中的谈话... 4. In my previous e-mail on October 5… 先前在10月5日所写的信… 5. As I mentioned earlier about… 如我先前所提及关于… 6. As indicated in my previous e-mail… 如我在先前的信中所提出… 7. As we discussed on the phone… 如我们上次在电话中的讨论…
8. From our decision at the previous meeting… 如我们在上次会议中的决定… 9. As you requested/per your requirement… 按照你的要求… reply to your e-mail dated April 1，we decided… 回答你在4月1日写的信，我们决定… 今天我们要讲的习惯用语都是以thin这个单词为主。Thin就是瘦，或者是很薄。要是人们有选择的话，恐怕许多人都喜欢瘦一点，而不愿意太胖。但是，今天我们要讲的前两个习惯用语都包含消极的意思。 1. wear thin 打折扣;逐渐消失 Wear在这里的意思是某一样东西在一段时间里，它的功能和价值在逐步降低，也就是中文里说的损耗。这可以指具体的东西，也可以用在其他方面。举例来说吧。 例句-1：Your patience with another person may wear thinif he keeps doing something you don't like. 要是一个人老是做你不喜欢的事，那你对他就会越来越没有耐心。 我们再来举一个例子。要是一个人问你借钱，他保证在一个月后还给你。但是，到了时候他没有还。而且还不断地找借口，拖延不还。过了半年，你对他实在没有耐心了，于是你对他说： 例句-2：Joe, remember that money you borrowed six months ago. You told me you'd pay it back in 30 days. But you keep finding reasons not to return it. Now I really need it back, and I must say that all your excuses for delay are beginning to wear thin. Joe, 记得你六个月前问我借的钱吧。当时你说你一定会在一个月后还给我。
