2. 这个价格对我挺合适的。 中国英语博客基地(English Blogs-英语麦当劳博客空间)sO2Ff6W
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。 中国英语博客基地(English Blogs-英语麦当劳博客空间)UIZ3|*c+~t"|

3. 你是做什么工作的呢?What’s your job?
Are you working at the moment?
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 中国英语博客基地(English Blogs-英语麦当劳博客空间)w#@ xxV%@4{Y7yh
at the moment?接下来您才问:目前您在哪儿工作呢?Where are you working these days?或者您从事哪个行业呢?What line of work are you in?顺带说一下,回答这类问题时不妨说得具体一点,不要只是说经理或者秘书

How do you say this in English? 中国英语博客基地(English Blogs-英语麦当劳博客空间)&VEx zRd{%B,e Z
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?

r9B*a/cN-{0v7t0Sorry but I am tied up all day tomorrow.
;v{ l0Bf8?c7{0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.
