好,在接下來的課程中,讓我們一起來學(xué)習(xí)一個非常有用的短語Excuse me。對不起。這個短語可以在很多情況下使用。例如當你要打斷某些人正在進行的對話時,或者你想引起他人對你的注意時,你都可以使用這個短語。請聽示范。
Jack: Excuse me, Mona, Leo? I think I might walk down to the beach.
當你要從比較近的距離內(nèi)從他人面前走過時,你可以說excuse me.以此表示歉意。另外,如果你想讓他人重復(fù)他剛剛講過的話時,也可以使用excuse me 這個短語,意思就是:可否請你重復(fù)一遍剛才說的話。
I’m leaving on the tenth.
Excuse me?
I said, I’m leaving on the tenth.
在出現(xiàn)一些意外狀況的時候,比如把水灑在了桌上,或者碰掉了別人的皮包時,我們都可以說excuse me ,以此表示歉意。Excuse me這個短語的另外一個用法就是當你需要離開他人時,你可以用這個短語來表達你不得不離去的意思。請聽英文老師的示范。
Excuse me for a minute.
Excuse me, I must go.
您現(xiàn)在了解了嗎?excuse me 是英語中非常重要和常用的一個短語。同時我也注意到,有很多學(xué)英語的朋友們在這個短語的發(fā)音上還有一些問題,那現(xiàn)在就讓我們跟著英文老師一起來練習(xí)一下吧。
Excuse me .

Excuse me, are you Mr Le?
