最容易说错的30种英语口语表达方式

1.我非常喜欢。

I very like it

I like it very much.

2.这个价格对我挺合适的。

The price is very suitable for me.

The price is right.

Note:suitable(合适的、相配的)最常见的用法是以否定的形式出现在告示或通知上,如:下列节目儿童不宜。The following programme is not suitable for children在这组句子中用后面的说法会更合适。

3.你是做什么工作的呢?

What’s your job?

Are you working at the moment?/What do you do?

Note:what’s your job这种说法难道也有毛病吗?是的。因为如果您的谈话对象刚刚失业,如此直接的问法会让对方有失面子,所以您要问:目前您是在上

班吗?Are you working at the moment?接下来您才问:目前您在哪儿工作呢?Where are you working these days?或者直接问What do you do? 4.用英语怎么说?

How to say?

How do you say this in English?

Note:How to say是在中国最为泛滥成灾的中国式英语之一,这决不是地道的英语说法。同样的句子有:请问这个词如何拼写?How do you spell that please?请问这个单词怎么读?How do you pronounce this word?

5.明天我有事情要做。

I have something to do tomorrow?

Sorry but I am tied up all day tomorrow.

用I have something to do来表示您很忙,这也完全是中国式的说法。因为每时每刻我们都有事情要做,躺在那里睡大觉也是事情。所以您可以说我很忙,脱不开身:I’m tied up.还有其他的说法:I’m I can’t make it at that time.I’d love to,but I can’t,I have to stay at home.

6.我没有英文名。

I haven’t English name.

I don’t have an English name.

Note:许多人讲英语犯这样的错误,从语法角度来分析,可能是语法功底欠缺,因为have在这里是实义动词,而并不是在现在完成时里面那个没有意义的助动词。所以,这句话由肯定句变成否定句要加助动词。

明白道理是一回事,习惯是另一回事,请您再说几话:我没有钱;I don’t have any money.我没有兄弟姐妹;I don’t have any brothers or sisters.我没有车。I don’t have a car.

7.我想我不行。

I think I can’t.

I don’t think I can.

Note:这一组然是个习惯问题,在语法上称为否定前置,这就是汉语里面说“我想我不会”的时候,英语里面总是说“我不认为我会”。以后您在说类似的英语句子的时候,只要您留心,也会习惯英语的说法的,

8.我的舞也跳得不好。

I don’t dance well too.

I am not a very good dancer either.

Note:当我们说不擅长做什么事情的时候,英语里面通常用not good at something,英语的思维甚至直接踊跃到:我不是一个好的舞者。

9.现在几点钟了?

What time is it now?

What time is it,please?

Note:What time is it now这是一个直接从汉语翻译过的句子,讲英语的时候没有必要说now,因为您不可能问what time was it yesterday,或者what time is it tomorrow?所以符合英语习惯的说法是:请问现在几点了?还有一种说法是:How are we doing for time?这句话在有时间限制的时候特别合适10.我的英语很糟糕。

My English is poor.

I am not 100% fluent,but at least I am improving.

Note:有人开玩笑说,全中国人最擅长的一句英文是:My English is poor.实话说,我从来没有遇到一个美国人对我说:My Chinese is poor.无论他们的汉语是好是坏,他们会说:I am still having a few problem,but I getting better.

当您告诉外国人,您的英语很poor,so what(那又怎么样呢),是要让别人当场施舍给我们一些英语呢,还是说我的英语不好,咱们不谈了吧。

另外一个更大的弊端是,一边不停的学英语,一边不停地说自己的英语很poor,这正像有个人一边给车胎充气,又一边在车胎上扎孔放气。

11.你愿意参加我们的晚会吗?

Would you like to join our party on Friday?

Would you like to come to our party on Friday night?

Note:join往往是指参加俱乐部或者协会,如:join a health club;join the Communist Party.事实上,常常与party搭配的动词的come 或者go。如go a wild party,或者come to a Christmas Party。

12.我没有经验。

I have no experience.

I don’t know much about that.

Note:I have no experience这句话听起来古里古怪,因为您只需要说:那方面我懂得不多,或者这方面我不在行,就行了。I am not really an expert in this area.

13.我没有男朋友。

I have no boyfriend.

I don’t have a boyfriend.

14.他的身体很健康。

His body is healthy.

He is in good health.

You can also say:He’s healthy.

15.价钱很昂贵/便宜。

The price is too expensive/cheap.

The price is too high/ rather low.

16.我们下了车。

We got off the car.

We got out of the car.

17.车速快了。

The speed of the car is fast.

The car is speeding.

or “The car is going too fast.”

18.这个春节你回家吗?

Will you be going back home for the Spring Festival?是的,我回去。Of course!(这一句是错的)

当然。Sure./ Certainly.(这种说法是正确的)

以英语为母语的人使用of course的频率要比中国的学生低得多,只有在回答一些众所周知的问题时才说of course。因为of course后面隐含的一句话是“当然我知道啦!难道我是一个傻瓜吗?”因此,of course带有挑衅的意味。在交谈时,用sure或certainly效果会好得多。同时,of course not也具挑衅的意味。正常情况下语气温和的说法是certainly not.

19.我觉得右手很疼。

I feel very painful in my right hand.

My right hand is very painful.

or “ My right hand hurts(aches).”

20.他看到她很惊讶。

He looked at her and felt surprised.

He looked at her in surprise.

21.我读过你的小说但是没料到你这么年轻。

I have read your novels but I didn’t think you could be so young.After having read your novel,I expected that you would be older.22.她脸红了,让我看穿了她的心思。

Her red face made me see through her mind.

Correct:Her red face told me what she was thinking.

23.看到这幅画让我想到了我的童年时代。

The sight of these pictures made me remember my own childhood.Correct:Seeing these pictures reminded me of my own childhood.24.别理她。

Don’t pay attention to her.

Leave her alone.

25.我在大学里学到了许多知识。

I get a lot of knowledge in the university.

I learned a lot in university.

26.正在读书。

Samuel is reading a book.

Samuel is reading.

27.激动

exciting / excited。

28.我遇到了很多困难。

I am having many difficulties.

I am having a few problems / lots of problems.29.请快点走,否则我们会迟到的。

Please hurry to walk or well be late.

Please hurry up or well be late.

30.她由嫉妒转向失望。

She was so jealous that she became desperate.Jealousy drove her to despair.

大学英语口语考试试题-10个口语话题(期末)

Topics for Oral test 1. Which great leader do you admire most? What qualities did/does he/she have? bill gates 2. Which do you cherish more, your friendship with a good friend or your romantic relationship? obviously, friend is easy to make, but lover is kind of hard to seek for. Since relationship between friends might be not that close compared to romantic relationship, I will probably take it serious and cherish this sweet relationship. Also, I believe that my friends will support me and our relationship won’t be tense and freezing because of this. As the Chinese saying goes, once you got a boyfriend or a girlfriend, you may leave your friends out of your mind. I partly agree this, and when I fall in love, especially at the very beginning, I think I will cherish it more than friendship. 3. What factors would you consider first if you were to find a job (even a part-time job)? I will first consider whether this company and the offered position is high potential. I think high potential is a quality that is vital for the company’s future development and its personnel’s self improvement. Every one need a room to promote and realize one’s self-value. Another factor I concern is—its location. I’d like to work and live in big cities because big cities offer so many opportunities and a higher salary while small cities can’t. 4. Whom do you usually turn to when in trouble, vour parents or your friends? They know me better than anyone else and their vision is wide, their thoughts are mature.

Topic1 Health Health, by definition, is a state of physical, mental and social well-being. It implies the absence of infirmity or disease, but their mere absence does not mean health. Earning and maintaining health is an active process. Good health is a result of proper nutrition, regular exercise, health care and hygiene. One of the most important factors determining the mental health of an individual is his/her happiness quotient. Hence, effective stress management forms a vital factor in remaining healthy. What should we do to keep healthy in our daily life? Firstly, try to be less materialistic and keep your life simple. It is really unnecessary to keep up with the joneses. Why do you buy a car if you can avail of public transport? Secondly, to be healthy also includes being mentally healthy. It’s another important guaranty for people to live or work well. Control your mind. What you think and how you think affect your general well-being. Refuse to entertain negative or self-derogatory thoughts and emotions. Thirdly, exercise regularly.

话题一What is your definition of success?What have you achieved in your life that makes you feel proud? In my submission, success is not to earn a great of money, nor is it to so some so great things. Not to be famous, not to be great, ordinary people also have their own way of success. I think, to make my families, and all the people I love have a happy life, is my own way to be success. Yes, the ancient people said, a man should take the world as his duty. But for me, the most important is to make these people I love happy! As I said, I want to make my love live a happy life. So it' always on the way to success! i want to make myself better and be able to make them feel happy. I remembered once a weekend, my parents are busy working so nobody have time to make a lunch, I tried to make it, but I didn't learn how to cook before! My little brother and I made an awful lunch after an attempt. I still remember how unsavory it was but the happiness on my parents ' tace is visible. At that moment, the feeling of pride arises spontaneously. I feel I am the most success person in our world. So after that, I tried to learn some cooking skills and I can make some delicious food now. 话题二Please describe what is the happiest/most embarrassing/funniest/scariest thing that has ever happened to you. For me, there is a really scariest thing happened in my life. That was when I had just been in high school for no more than one month! After the military training, we have a long holiday at last. My brother and I went back home together. We are so tired because the intension of the training is so strong! We planned to have a good sleep once we came home. After an hour 's drive and thirty minutes' walk, we finally arrived at our destination. And we found that our parents going out. But, when I was opening the door, he suddenly falls in a faint. I am so scared that I almost fainted too. After realizing what happened, I responded quickly. I dialed a first aid phone and then, call my parents what happened. I put my brother on the sofa to prevent him from catching a cold. And I called his name and asked some questions to see if he was even sober. Just a while, the ambulance arrived.

旅游英语口语大全:中国魅力城市英文简介

旅游英语口语大全:中国魅力城市英文简介Beijing If your visions of Beijing are centred around pods of Maoist revolutionaries in buttoned-down tunics performing t'ai chi in the Square, put them to rest: this city has embarked on a new-millennium roller-coaster and it's taking the rest of China with it. The spinsterish Beijing of old is having a facelift and the cityscape is changing daily. Within the city, however, you'll still find some of China's most stunning sights: the Forbidden City, the Summer Palace, Temple of Heaven Park, the Lama Temple and the Great Wall, to name just a few. Hong Kong Hong Kong has the big city specials like smog, odour, 14 million elbows and an insane love of clatter. But it's also efficient, hushed and peaceful: the transport network is excellent, the shopping centres are sublime, and the temples and quiet corners of parks are contemplative oases. Hong Kong has enough towering urbanity, electric streetscapes, enigmatic temples, commercial fervour and cultural idiosyncrasies to utterly swamp the senses of a visitor, and enough spontaneous, unexpected possibilities to make a complete mockery of any attempt at a strictly organised itinerary.

Therefore, certain social roles is the biggest harvest of results, not necessarily the largest role in some social gains.
