美联英语提供：美联英语:上班族必会的英语口语汇总日常办公室英语口语日常寒暄1.Youre in the pink!要想说人气色好，“You look fine!”当然不错，可如果你说“Youre in the pink!”就妙得多了，实际上，在英语口语中，巧妙使用一些表示颜色的词能使得句子非常形象生动。2.He is bouncy。“他精力充沛”美国人通常说：“He is bouncy。”，而不说“He is energetic”，牢记一些日常对话中的句式是你生活中一把必备的钥匙。如：久仰，“I get mind of you”比“I heard a lot about you。”轻松得多。3.Did you get lost?有人开会迟到了，你若对他说“You are late。”，听起来像是废话。若说“Did you get lost?”，则更能让他感到歉疚，可千万别说成“Get lost!”，那可是让人滚蛋的意思。4.Do you have the time?别人征求你的意见，问能否开窗户等，你要是说“You can do that。”就有点土了，用一句“Do you have the time?”就好多了。实际上，问他人的姓名，地址都可以这么用：“May I have your name?”要比“Whats your name?”礼貌得多，不过警察例外。5.I would rather not say。别人问你不愿公开的问题，切勿用“Its my secret,dont ask such a personal question。”回答，一来显得你没有个性，二来也让对方觉得你气短。你可以说“I would rather not say。”(还是别说了吧)。6.Would it be possible for me to take the day off this Friday?这个星期五，我是否可以休一天假？请求休假用take the day off。如果是两天以上就用days off。上司可能会很干脆地答应说 Thatll be OK.，也可能会不悦地回答Will everything be all right?(一切都安排就绪了吗？)。这些都要看你平时的工作表现而定。7. I think we need to buy a new copier。我想我们需要买一台新的复印机。说出这句话之前，必须要说明Our copying machine has broken down again。(复印机又出毛病了。)以作为提案的依据。客气一些的提议，可用suggest来表达，如I would suggest we buy a new copier.8. Yes, of course。是，我知道了。也可以用I understand。(我明白了。)，或Yes, right away。(好的，马上去做。)对上司说OK或 all right并不恰当。如果你很忙，应该说Im sorry, but Im busy now. Could I do it later?9. You did say next Tuesday at 2:00 p.m., didnt you?您是说在下星期二下午2点，是不是？任何事都必须确认一下。如果对方是外国人更要如此。上句也可以直截了当地说Let me confirm。(让我确认一下时间和日期。)10. I had a feeling he was in favor of the plan。我觉得他赞成那个计划。记住I have a feeling (that)(我觉得)，以及(that) he was against the plan。(他反对那个计划。)这两句话，都是非常有用的哦！日常工作交流你今晚可以加班吗？Could you work overtime tonight?For example:A: Could you work overtime tonight?你今晚可以加班呜？B: For how long?要加班多久？你拥有公司的股票吗？Do you own any company stock?For example:A: Do you own any company stock?你拥有公司的股票吗？B: I invested a lot in the company stock.我对公司的股票投资很多。你知道我们公司提供什么福利吗？Do you know anything about the benefits our company offers?For example:A: Do you know anything about the benefits our company offers?你知道我们公司提供什么福利吗？B: No,丨have a handbook, though.不知道，但是我有一本手册。你今天下午有空吗？Are you available this afternoon?Are you free this afternoon?For example:A: Are you available this afternoon?你今天下午有空吗？B: I am available all afternoon.我整个下午都有空。be available 有空你们什么时候可以把项目完成？When will you have the project finished?For example:A: When will you have the project finished?你们什么时候可以把项目完成？B: Ill have the project finished tomorrow.我明天就可以把项目完成。我们的进度有一点儿落后。We are running a little behind schedule.For example:A: We are running a little behind schedule.我们的进度有一点儿落后。B: How far behind schedule?落后了 多少？behind schedule落后于预定计划（或时间）你认为还要多久才能完成？How long do you think will be before its done?For example:A: How long do you think will be before its done?你认为还要多久才能完成？B: My guess is another week or so.我猜还需要一个星期左右。你星期五能不能帮我代班？Could you cover me on Friday?For example:A: Could you cover me on Friday?你星期五能不能帮我代班？B: I think so.
