   不知道大家有没有这样的经历:有时和外国朋友聊天不知道该说些什么?因为不知道想说的话题会不会是人家文化里不应该谈及的,问了会不会造成尴尬的局面。今天就来说一说,对于西方人,哪些话题是绝对安全的,甚至是受欢迎的!


  1. 首先,电影、餐厅、公众事件、假期和电视节目(films, restaurants, public events, vacations and TV shows) 这几个都是西方人乐于聊的东西,用它们作为聊天话题绝对没错,不用担心触到雷区。此外,传说中外国人很喜欢谈论的天气也是可以拿来当话题的,不过有些人会觉得有点无聊就是了。
  2. 其次大家要了解,西方人还蛮喜欢给朋友建议的,所以如果你拿某件事儿来问他们,他们会很乐意给你答案的哟。比方说:
  Do you know if anything good is playing at the cinema right now?
  你知道影院里现在有上映什么好电影吗?(“电影院”英国人说cinema,美国人则说movie theater)
  I really want to find a good Italian restaurant; any suggestions?
  我很想找到一家好的意大利餐馆,你有什么推荐吗?
  I saw an advertisement 1 on TV last night for that new show, Prison 2 Break. Have you seen it?
  昨晚我在电视里看到那部新剧《越狱》的广告,你看到了吗?
  3. 最后,要想把谈话继续下去,最好的办法就是多问问题啦!
  比如你问,"Do you know any good Italian restaurants?"(你知道什么吃意大利菜的好地方吗?)对方却回答,"No, sorry—I don't really like Italian food."(对不起我不知道,其实我不太喜欢吃意大利菜……)那你可以接着问,"Oh, ok. What kind of food do you usually go out for then?"(哦~~那你一般出去吃哪种菜呢?)这样就能比较顺利地把话题继续下去啦!

n.广告,启事,广告宣传
  • Please post up this advertisement for our concert in your shop window.请把这张我们音乐会的海报贴在贵店窗户上。
  • I wish to insert an advertisement in your newspaper.我想在贵报上登一则广告。
n.监狱(禁);拘留所
  • They put him in a prison.他们将他逮捕入狱。
  • If you go on like this you will be put into prison. 你这样下去会进监狱的。
