当我们遇到办公室里的同事，就可以这样问：
Good morning! How are you today?
早上好！你今天好吗？
How are you this morning/afternoon/evening? (being more specific may get a more specific answer)
你今天上午/下午/晚上好吗？(问得更具体所得到的答案也可能更具体)
而如果是其他人问你，那么我们可以这样来回答：
I'm great actually—thanks for asking!
我很好，谢谢关心！
I'm alright—a bit tired.
我还好，就是有点累。
Really good, thanks. I'm getting excited for the weekend. (then explain why you're excited)
非常好，谢谢。我正为周末感到兴奋呢。(然后可以解释自己为何兴奋)
Can't complain!
好得没话说！
回答完后还可以问上一句：
How about yourself?
你如何呢？
谈论很多事情时都需要一个轻松愉快的环境，那么如何在饭局上和老外轻松交流呢？
1. Please pass the salt.
请把盐递给我。
2. If you don't like fish, just set it aside.
你要是不喜欢吃鱼，就把它放到一边。
3.Please excuse me for a moment.
对不起，我离开一下。
4.Excuse me. could I see the menu, please?
打扰一下，我能看一下菜单吗？
5. I'd like to have another helping, thanks.
我想再要一份，谢谢。
6. What a delicious meal! Thank you very mush.
晚餐真棒，非常感谢。
7. Thank you, but I really can't eat another bite.
谢谢，但我一口都吃不下。
8. Cheers! To your health.
为您的健康干杯。
1. 请假
Would it be possible for me to take the day off this Friday?
这个星期五，我是否可以休一天假？
请求休假用take the day off.如果是两天以上就用days off.上司可能会很干脆地答应说 "That'll be ok."，也可能会不悦地回答"Will everything be all right?(一切都安排就绪了吗？)"。这些都要看你平时的工作表现而定。
2. 提议
I think we need to buy a new copier.
我想我们需要买一台新的复印机。
说出这句话之前，必须要说明"Our copying machine has broken down again.(复印机又出毛病了。)"以作为提案的依据。客气一些的提议，可用"suggest"来表达，如"I would suggest we buy a new copier."
3. 表示了解上司的指示
Yes, of course.
是，我知道了。
也可以用"I understand.(我明白了。)"，或"Yes, right away.(好的，马上去做。)"对上司说"ok"或 "all right"并不恰当。如果你很忙，应该说"I'm sorry, but I'm busy now. Could I do it later?"
4. 确认上司指示的内容
You did say next Tuesday at 2:00 p.m. didn't you?
您是说在下星期二下午2点，是不是？
任何事都必须确认一下。如果对方是外国人更要如此。上句也可以直截了当地说"let me confirm.(让我确认一下时间和日期。)"
5. 报告商谈结果
I had a feeling he was in favor of the plan.
我觉得他赞成那个计划。
记住"I have a feeling (that)…(我觉得……)"，以及"…(that) he was against the plan.(他反对那个计划。)"这两句话，都是非常有用的哦！
1. He is that rare combination of gifted writer and great newshound, an exceptional journalist with both narrative and investigative skills.
他是天才作家和伟大新闻记者的罕见组合，一个拥有叙述和调查技巧的杰出记者。
gifted：有才华的；有天赋的
exceptional：优越的，杰出的；例外的，独特的，异常的
2. Furiously independent, wise and resourceful in every way, he is an engine of good sense and sound judgment, a tireless worker who insists on fairness and accuracy.
在各方面具有强烈的独立性，智慧并且资源丰富，他是敏锐合理判断的引擎，一个坚持公正准确的不知疲倦的工作者。
in every way：在各方面
good sense判断力强，通情达理，好眼光
sound judgment合理判断
3. He is a tough and tenacious reporter, and a decent and genuine soul.
他是一个坚韧，顽强的记者，正派，真诚。
4. His generosity, calm nature and constant good humor have made the longest days seem shorter, the largest obstacles surmountable.
他慷慨，平和的本性及一贯的幽默感让最长的一天似乎变短，最大的障碍也能克服。
constant good humor 一贯的幽默感
5. As we worked together, I came to rely on him heavily and trust him completely.
