[誤] - Your handwriting is very good!��

　　- No， my handwriting is very poor�� ��

　　[正] - Your handwriting is very good!��

　　- Thank you�� ��

　　[析] 中國(guó)人遇到別人稱(chēng)贊，總是以謙遜為美德。但英美人則往往認(rèn)為自信是美德。所以當(dāng)別人夸獎(jiǎng)你或贊美你時(shí)，就應(yīng)說(shuō)： Thank you�� 又比如中國(guó)人見(jiàn)面時(shí)常講 Where are you going? 或 Have you had your breakfast yet?而英美人則認(rèn)為你過(guò)多的干預(yù)別人的私生活了。而他們見(jiàn)面時(shí)往往問(wèn)一些無(wú)關(guān)緊要的話，如： Hello! How are you going? (你過(guò)得怎樣) Morning! 等。而 good morning�� 和 How do you do�� 則被認(rèn)為是較正規(guī)的問(wèn)候語(yǔ)，在日常生活中則十分少見(jiàn)。��

　　[誤] When you have had dinner with an American friend and want to leave you may say： "Excuse me�� I'll go first��" ��

　　[正] When you have had dinner with an American friend and want to leave you may say： "Excuse me�� I have to go��" ��

　　[析] 這兩句答語(yǔ)都是正確的，其關(guān)鍵不是語(yǔ)法，而是習(xí)慣問(wèn)題。如果在這樣的場(chǎng)合你講 I'll go first�� 朋友們會(huì)迷惑不解，而 I have to go�� 則表示由于外界的特殊原因而造成的你要離去，而你本人則十分不愿做此事。��

　　[誤] - Would you like to come to dinner tonight?��

　　- I'd like to， and I'm too busy�� ��

　　[正] - Would you like to come to dinner tonight?��

　　- I'd like to， but I'm too busy�� ��

　　[析] I'm too busy�� 與 I'd like to�� 在意義上正好相反。所以要用轉(zhuǎn)折連詞。這里考查了對(duì)詞義合乎邏輯的表達(dá)能力。所以要強(qiáng)調(diào)語(yǔ)言環(huán)境，更要強(qiáng)調(diào)在語(yǔ)言的基礎(chǔ)上的詞語(yǔ)辨析。��

　　[誤] - Where's Deter?��

　　- Deter will come with us tonight but he isn't very sure yet�� ��

　　[正] - Where's Deter?��

　　- Deter may come with us tonight but he isn't very sure yet�� ��

　　[析] 由于 but 所引出的句子可以看出 Deter 的來(lái)與不來(lái)是十分不確定的，所以應(yīng)用 may 來(lái)表達(dá)一個(gè)不肯定的事件。��

　　[誤] - Hi， haven't seen you for ages! You look fine!��

　　- Great�� You look well too�� ��

　　[正] - Hi， haven't seen you for ages! You look fine!��

　　- Thanks�� You look well too�� ��

　　[析] 要注意的是 Great 在口語(yǔ)中多表示驚嘆，而 Thanks 則表示感謝對(duì)方的稱(chēng)贊。�ニ�以對(duì)情景談話要有準(zhǔn)確的判定，要根據(jù)情景，身臨其境，上下對(duì)照，周密思考，弄清場(chǎng)合，注意英美人的風(fēng)俗習(xí)慣，注重語(yǔ)義上的詞語(yǔ)辨析，并要進(jìn)行大量的語(yǔ)言實(shí)踐練習(xí)，擴(kuò)大實(shí)際交際能力。
