在遇到別人工作上有錯(cuò)誤的時(shí)候,一定要婉轉(zhuǎn)的向他人指出,不要表面上說好,但是心里埋怨。這樣很可能造成對(duì)方的重復(fù)錯(cuò)誤。但同時(shí)也要注意自己的語氣,要委婉,畢竟人非圣賢,孰能無過,下一個(gè)出錯(cuò)的可能就是你自己哦。
Try to be better next time. And please let me know if you have any problem doing this.
下次盡量做的更好吧。如果工作上有什么困難一定要記得跟我說哦。
I have confidence that you could be more professional.
我對(duì)你有信心,下次一定會(huì)做的更專業(yè)的。
I need more detail-oriented. So try to do some improvement on this report.
我需要更具體的資料,再改進(jìn)一下這份報(bào)告吧。
What you have done is not up to standard. And I’m wondering if there is anything I can help?
你做的不符合標(biāo)準(zhǔn)。有什么我可以幫忙的嗎?
與智慧有關(guān)的習(xí)語
英語中與智慧有關(guān)的習(xí)語十分普遍,了解它們對(duì)于提高我們的英語水平很有幫助。下面就是一些常見的相關(guān)習(xí)語。
1. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.
直譯為“一盎司的預(yù)防勝過一英鎊的治療”。其意思就是從一開始就細(xì)心準(zhǔn)備,考慮周全的話,就不會(huì)失敗。這句話十分地道,形象。下面有一個(gè)例子:
A: Don’t you think you should deal with this problem now?
B: I will do something about it tomorrow.
A: An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.
2. Appearances are deceiving.
這則典故出自伊索寓言中《老鼠與獅子》中的教訓(xùn),告誡人們外表是欺騙人的東西。同樣這句話也可以說成“Looks are deceiving.”下面是一個(gè)例子:
A: How’s Alice doing? Are you going to fire her?
B: Appearances are deceiving. She’s the best assistant I have.
A: Really? I didn’t think she could do anything.
3. Brevity is the soul of wit.
這是莎翁名著《哈姆雷特》中的人物尼斯的著名臺(tái)詞,意思是“簡潔是智慧的精髓。”這句話對(duì)人說話,寫作等都有重要的啟迪。
A: I’m supposed to give a speech today. Do you have any advice?
B: Just remember, brevity is the soul of wit.
4. Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me.
按照字面意思來看,這句話是說一次被騙是騙者的羞恥;兩次被騙是受騙者的羞恥。其實(shí)是在告戒人們要善于吸取教訓(xùn),引以為戒,否則一再受到損失就是自己的問題。下面給大家一個(gè)例子:
A: I did a stupid thing. I lent John some money.
B: Again? This is the third time.
A: I know. Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me.
5. Rules are made to be broken.
這句話源自1953年Arthur C. Clarke的 Expedition to Earth中的話告誡人們要擺脫思想的束縛敢于創(chuàng)新和挑戰(zhàn)。
A: Let’s order a pizza for meeting.
B: But there’s a rule against eating in the office.
A: Rules are made to be broken.
6. The best thing comes in small packages.
這是用于送禮物的說法,意思是放在小箱子里的禮物總是珍貴的。有時(shí)也可以說“Precious diamonds come in small packages.”
A: What did George give you?
B: I don’t know, but this package is so tiny.
A: The best thing comes in small packages.
當(dāng)然這只是有關(guān)智慧的習(xí)語的一部分,平時(shí)學(xué)習(xí)中我們可以多加積累,不僅對(duì)提高英語水平有幫助,而且可以幫助我們深入了解英語國家的文化。
