A. Texts & Notes

1. Can you help me?

一位妇女的汽车胎瘪了，正为换胎发愁，一位男人手里拿着地图，想要问路。
Man: Excuse me. Can you help me?
Woman: No, I'm sorry, I can't.
Man: Can I help you?
Woman: Oh, yes, please.

注1. Can I help you? 这名话中的“can”表示“我可以……吗？”用来请求对方允许自己做某事。如：Can I sit here?（我可以坐这里吗？）Can you help me? 这名话中的“can”表示“（你）能否……”或“（你）有可能……吗？”用来请求对方为自己做某事。如：Can you take this? （你能拿这个吗？）这两名话中“can”一般不重读，而读做/kən/ 。can't /kɑːnt/ 是can not的缩略形式，是can 的否定形式，它含的“不能够”和“不允许”的意思。如：I can‘t help you。（我帮不了你的忙。）You can't sit here. （你不能做坐在这里。）
注2. 对Can I help you? 的回答，可是 Yes, please. （好，请吧。）或 No, thank you. （不用，谢谢。）对Can you help me? 的回答，可以是Yse, of course. （当然可以。）或 No, I'm sorry, I can't. （不行，对不起。）
注3. me 是人称代词“我”的宾格。人称代词在句子中用作宾语时要用宾格，作主语时用主格。以“我”为例，如：Can I help you? （I 是主语，是主格）Can you help me? （me是宾语，宾格）由这两名可见，I 宾格是 me，you的宾格还是you，不变。

2. Shall I put it here?

弗朗西斯正在整理房间，门铃响了……
Francis: Just a moment. Please come in. Come in. Er, yes? Can I help you?
Jane: Please take it. It's for you. Look.
Fransice: Oh, thank you, Jane. Thank you.
Jane: Can I sit here?
Fransice: Yes, of cours. Please do. Look! Shell I put it here?
Jane: Mm. No. Not there.
Fransice: Here? Sell I put it here? No, no. Please don't get up?
Jane: Yes, there.

注4. Just a moment 用来请别人等一下，有时加上please更客气一点，Just a monent, please.
注5. It's for you. 这是给你的。for 表示“给……”，“为……”等意思。
注6. Please do. 是一句简短客气的说法，用不肯定回答对方的请求。
注7. shall 用于第一人称，即I 或 we。用shall开头的问句，一般用来征求对方的意见。如 Shall I put it here? Shall we go to the cinema? 回答时，如肯定，可说 Yes, please. （或Please do.）如否定，可说 No, please don't.
注8. Please don't get up. 这是祈句的否定形式，否定形式用 Do not.（或 don't [dəʊnt]）开头。如：Don't put it here, please.

3.Will you take that?

威廉斯夫妇来到旅馆，在接待处的搬运员主动招呼。

Mr Williams: Yes, please. Will you take that? No, Don't take that. Will you take this, please? Would you take this, please?
Poeter: Would you follow me, please?

注9. Can I help you, sir （madam）?在旅馆、饭店、商店等地服务人员经常这样向顾客打招呼，话是“我能帮你做什么？”但意思是问“你有什么事？”“你想买什么？”顾客回答时直接说出想要干什么。
注10. Room 8（8号房间）。英语中将房间号放在Room一词的后面，Room要大写R。Room 123，或Room one tow three.
注11. 用Will 开头的问句，用来询问对方是否愿意做某事。例如：Will you take that? Will you help me?
注12. 用Would 开头的问句，比Will 客气委婉：Would you help me? Would you follow me?
