The weather's great. What are you doing? Steve: I’m playing basketball with some friends at the park. Rick: Sounds like you’re having a good time. Steve: Yeah. Is your brother at home? Rick: Oh, he’s not here. He’s studying at his friend’s home. Can I take a message for him? Steve: Yes. Could you just tell him to call me back? Rick: Sure, no problem. 1. Rick: Hello, Rick speaking. Steve: Hi, Rick. It’s Steve. 这是英语中电话通话的交流套语，应注意进行整体学习，不要逐词对译。如：当打电话要求与Rick通话时，可说： May I speak to Rick, please? 我找里克。 Is that Rick (speaking)? (你)是里克吗？ 当接听电话，说“我是Rick”时，英语常用： Rick speaking. This is Rick (speaking). It’s Rick (speaking). 2. How’s it going? 近来可好？ 这是英语中进行问候时的寒暄用 语，相当于汉语中的“近况如何？”“身 体可好？”“一切还好吗？”多用于口语 或非正式书面场合(如与朋友通信 等)。还可以问： How’s your summer vacation going? 你暑假过得怎么样？ How’s it going? 后可接with sb/ sth.用来 表达对朋友、家人的关怀。如： How’s it going with Peter? 彼特最近怎么样？ How’s it going with your study? 你最近学习怎么样？ 对 “How’s it going?” 回答可以用： Not bad. 还不错。 Pretty good. 相当好。 Great! 很好！ Terrible! 很糟糕！ Just so-so. 马马虎虎。 Fine! 很好！ Not bad! 马马虎虎！ 询问别人的学习、工作、生活等，也可以用如下表达： — How’s everything? — Terrible! — How’s your study? — Great! — How’s the life? — Not bad! 3. Sounds like you’re having a good time! 听起来你玩得好开心！ 这是一个省略句，相当于It sounds like you’re…。英语It sounds like…与It sounds…句型近似，都表示“听起来……；听上去……”。这种省略的用法十分口语 化，在日常英语会话中常可听到。如： (It) sounds like he’s all right now. 听上去他现在病已经好了。 (It) sounds like you had a good time on your trip. 听起来你旅行玩得蛮开心的。 4. Can I take a message for him? 要我给(他)捎个话吗？ Could you just tell him to call me back? 你能否叫他给我回个电话？ 以上两句话中的情态动词can和could相当于汉语中的“可以”、“能不能”，用于表达请求，只是could在语气上比can更加委婉、客气。 5. Could you just tell him to call me back? tell sb. to do sth. 让某人做某事 e.g. He ____ me _____ slowly. 他让我开车慢 ... ...
