新概念1,2里面就有许多.现举一个例子:
Last week,Mrs. Mills went to London.She does not know London very well and she lost her way.Suddenly,she saw a man near a bus-stop.
"I can ask him the way",she said to herself.
上周,缪尔斯太太去伦敦.她对伦敦不太熟悉,迷路了.突然,她看到一个男子站在车站旁边.她想:"我可以向他问路".
"Excuse me,can you tell me the way to King Street?"
"请问,去国王街的路怎么走?"
The man smiled pleasantly,he did not understand English,he spoke German,he was a tourist.Then he put his hand into his pocket and took out a phrase book.He opened the book and found the phrase.He read the phrase slowly,"I am sorry,I do not speak English."
那位男子友好地笑笑.他听不懂英语,他是说德语的.他是个游客.他把手伸到口袋里,拿出一本常用语手册.他把书打开,找到那句话.他慢慢地念道"不好意思,我不会说英语."
