基础英语对话:公共场所的手机使用

Lesson: 课文

Never leave your cell phone switched on when you are watching a movie at the multiplex. If your phone has a message system, use that instead and call them back when the movie is over.

Try not to talk loudly on your cell phone when you are on the train or bus. Most people don‘t want to listen to your conversations. If someone calls, tell them quietly that you will call them back soon.

If you are in a meeting and your phone rings, you should apologize to the others in the room and then quickly leave to answer the call and then talk. Try not to be outside of the meeting room for too long.

If you get a call when you are in a restaurant, explain to the caller that you are eating and ask them to call back later. The other people might not want to hear you talking on the phone while they are eating. They might think you are a rude dude for disturbing their meals.

If the person calling you cannot hear you clearly, don‘t shout into the phone. Using a loud voice in a public place is an easy way for people to get the wrong idea and think you are rude.

当你在影城看电影的时候可一定不要开着你的手机。如果你的手机能够收有信息系统,你可以使用这种功能,这样,在你看完电影后你就能回复。

当你在乘坐火车或是公共汽车时请不要大声讲话,因为车上有很多人都不喜欢听你的谈话。如果有人打电话给你,你要小声地告诉他:你会马上打回去的。

如果在你开会的时候手机的铃声响了,你应该向屋子里的其它人道歉,并很快地离开屋子去回电话,但要记住:离开会议室的时间不要太久。

如果你在餐厅吃饭的时候电话铃响了,你要向打电话的人解释你正在吃饭,并要求他们晚些时候再打来。要知道,有些人不愿意在吃饭的时候听电话,如果你正好在那个时候打电话的话,他们会认为你很粗鲁,打搅了他们进餐。

如果你在打电话时对方听不清楚,不要对着手机大喊大叫。在公共场所大喊大叫很容易给人留下不好的印象,人们会认为你很粗鲁。

Dialogue(对话)

Bill: I was at the movies the other night and a guy kept talking on his cell phone.

Bob : Was he talking while the movie was already on?

Bill: It was and really loudly too. My buddy asked him to be quiet but he ignored us.

Bob : He must have been a really rude dude.

Bill: If the movie hadn‘t been so interesting, I would have really taught him a lesson.

Bob : Yeah, sure you would have. What would you have done to him?

Bill: Simple! I would have recommended that he read Xianzai Cultural English to make sure he wasn‘t a rude dude!

Bob : You always have the best ideas buddy. How could I ever ignore you?

Bill: I can teach you more next week if you like.

Bob : Cool!

比尔:那天晚上我在电影院的时候旁边有个人一直用手机打电话。
鲍勃:电影开始了他还在说么?
比尔:可不是么,还特别大声呢!我的哥们让他小点声他不理我们。
鲍勃:那他可真是个粗鲁的家伙。
比尔:要不是电影特别精彩,我当时真想给他点儿教训。
鲍勃:就是,你就该那么做。那你会给他什么样的教训呢?
比尔:这很简单。我会推荐他好好读读现在公司的《文化英语》,好让他别再那么粗鲁。
鲍勃:嘿,哥们,你老是有好主意。我永远都没有办法忽视你!
比尔:如果你愿意,我下个星期会再多教你一些。
