熟練地運(yùn)用英語的一個(gè)重要方面就是學(xué)習(xí)并掌握英語本族者常用的生動(dòng)、活潑的習(xí)語。　

1. After you.你先請?！?br>　
這是一句很常用的客套話，在進(jìn)／出門,上車得場合你都可以表現(xiàn)一下。 (好象現(xiàn)在女士不愿意你這么做，特別是那些女權(quán)主義者，我還記得這么一段話：一個(gè)女士對一個(gè)讓她先行的男士說：you do this because i am a woman?那個(gè)男士回答說：i do this not because you are a woman but because i am a man!i love this guy!　

2. I just couldn't help it.我就是忍不住。

想想看，這樣一個(gè)漂亮的句子可用于多少個(gè)場合？下面是隨意舉的一個(gè)例子：　I was deeply moved by the film and I cried and cried. I just couldn't help it.　太棒的句子了，我愛死它了?！?br>
3. Don't take it to heart. 別往心里去，別為此而憂慮傷神。生活實(shí)例：This test isn't that important. Don't take it to heart. 安慰人的超級句子?！?br>
4. We'd better be off.我們該走了。It's getting late. We'd better be off .　

5. Let's face it. 面對現(xiàn)實(shí)吧。常表明說話人不愿意逃避困難的現(xiàn)狀?！?br>　　參考例句：I know it's a difficult situation. Let's face it, OK?　很棒啊，年輕人犯錯(cuò)誤，上帝都會(huì)原諒，remember?但是犯了錯(cuò)誤，你必須面對他，let's face it,或者是：let's face the music.　

6. Let's get started.咱們開始干吧。勸導(dǎo)別人時(shí)說：Don't just talk. Let's get started.　let's get started.　let's start.　let's do it right now.　let's hit sth.　let's rock&roll.　let's put our hands on sth.　

7. I'm really dead.我真要累死了。坦誠自己的感受時(shí)說：After all that work, I’m really dead.　

8. I've done my best.我已盡力了?！∵@句話，很有用，失敗有時(shí)難免，但是你要是可以說，i've done my best.or i spare no efforts.就不必遺憾，畢竟，man supposes,god disposes.　

9. Is that so?真是那樣嗎？常用在一個(gè)人聽了一件事后表示驚訝、懷疑。
