二 口 ◆ 语 ◆ 一 ◆ 点 ◆ 通

1Excuse me. 对不起；打扰一下。

— Excuse me. Could you tell me how to get to the post offce?

对不起。您能否告诉我去邮局怎么走？

— Of course. Turn right at the next intersection[十字路口]and go straight. The post offce will be on your left. 当然可以。在下个十字路口右转后直走。邮局就在你的左边。

分析▲“Excuse me.”通常有引起对方注意的含义，最常使用的场合为请人让路或问路的时候。它与“I’m sorry.”虽同表“对不起。”，但在用法上仍有所差异。“Excuse me.”并不代表自己确实犯错，而使用“I’m sorry.”时一般是自己确实犯了错。相似的口语表达还有：1) Pardon me. 2) Sorry to interrupt you. 3) I hate to bother you.

2You look great! 你看起来好棒！

— You look great! How do you stay in such good shape?
