医生护士常用口语会话八讲(8)

Lesson 8 Introducing oneself to a new colleague 【Situation 场景】 以下内容为在医院里的两个护士第一次见面时的对话，通过对话，我们 可以学习第一次见到新同事时如何介绍自己，发展出更多的对话来。 不过，我们需要注意的是，第一个护士问的问题比较多，而另一个护士 则多为回答问题，这种情况是较为常见的，一般新来的护士都会被问及很多 问题，而“老”护士则往往表现出对新护士的问题比较感兴趣。 当自我介绍的时候，通常可以使用一些礼貌用语，如： "Pleased toPleased to meet you"Pleased to. （美国英语中，通常用美国英语中，通常用"Pleased toNice to meet you"Pleased to ）。 对话中，您将看到有"Pleased toOut in the sticks"Pleased to 之类的字眼，这是一种非正是的 表达方式，表示“远离家园”、“远渡重洋”之意。 “Lovely”一词表示对别人刚刚提到的事物或某些有趣的经历表现出自己 的兴趣。而“Have you been……？”也是询问别人是否有……经历的常用提问”也是询问别人是否有……经历的常用提问 方式。护士作了否定回答：“No, never. I've been to Spain, though."Pleased to 这时， 护士 2 接着问：“Where did you go？”也是询问别人是否有……经历的常用提问”其实，这种问话方式也是对一般过去 时的运用，表示过去所发生的一些事情（美国英语中，通常用动作）。这里，护士说，她去过西 班牙，后来又回来了，属于过去发生的动作。 【Dialogue 对话】 A: Good morning, have you just joined us？”也是询问别人是否有……经历的常用提问 B: Yes, it's my first day.

No-I'm glad to get away. You can get tired of big cities, you know-all those people, all the traffic, the rush hour. I could have gone to London instead of here, but I didn't want to-not just yet. A: No, I suppose not. I don't London, myself. B: Have you ever been, you know-to Madrid？”也是询问别人是否有……经历的常用提问 A: No, never. I've been to Spain, though. On holiday with my boyfriend. B: Where did you go？”也是询问别人是否有……经历的常用提问 A: One of the Costas, I think it was. Sitges, was it? About three or four years ago，…… was really wonderful-we had a great time. B: Whatever has made you come to somewhere like this, when you've got Sitges and places like that to work in? A: Well, I want to see the world a bit while I'm still young. Plus, I'd like to learn some English-and get some professional hospital experience. This is my first proper post. B: Well, you'll get plenty of experience in this job. We're very busy-all the time. Permanently. Rushed off our feet, sometimes. A: Good, I like to be busy. B: You will love it here, then. Where did you train？”也是询问别人是否有……经历的常用提问 A: In madrid.
