表達(dá)質(zhì)疑常用句型 [ 2006-11-29 10:50 ]
● 表達(dá)質(zhì)疑 1. I'm not sure what you're saying has any relevance here. 2.
I'm not sure if what you're saying has anything to do with our problem. 3.
I'm not sure if what you're saying really matters in this case. 4. I'm not
sure if what you're saying is relevant to our problem. Relevance
是"關(guān)聯(lián);適切",詞組用法為"have relevance to..."(與…有關(guān))。這句話適用于正式場(chǎng)合,表示對(duì)方所言與議題并無(wú)關(guān)系。開(kāi)頭語(yǔ)由于是 I'm
not sure 而不是 I don't
think,因此可避免直接對(duì)峙的場(chǎng)面。不過(guò)這句話易造成不是對(duì)就是錯(cuò)的局面,因此如果對(duì)方辯得有理,自己會(huì)有全盤(pán)皆輸?shù)奈kU(xiǎn)。
● 暫不回答
1. I can't really recall; I'll have to get back to you on that. 2. I
can't quite remember; I'll need to do a little checking and get back to you.
3. I can't fully remember; I'll have to check up on it. 4. I can't
recall all the facts; I'll have to get back to you. Recall 是"想起";get back to
someone on something
的意思是"下次再和某人談某事"。這個(gè)句型適用于想避而不答、以免不慎的回答落人口實(shí)之時(shí)。它能讓對(duì)方不再把矛頭指向你,使你有機(jī)會(huì)脫身,找時(shí)間準(zhǔn)備數(shù)據(jù)。
●
詢(xún)問(wèn)意見(jiàn) 1. Would anyone like to add anything to (what I've said)? 2. Would
anyone care to comment? 3. Would anyone like to give their ideas on
this? 4. Would anyone care to add their thoughts (to the
discussion)? 這類(lèi)句型是請(qǐng)他人發(fā)表意見(jiàn),來(lái)補(bǔ)充自己的看法。由于用的是 add(補(bǔ)充)而非
comment(批評(píng)),暗示請(qǐng)發(fā)言者站在自己的角度,再作補(bǔ)充,而非給予大家較大的空間,任由批評(píng)。這也是add一詞所藏的玄機(jī)。
● More
邀請(qǐng)發(fā)表意見(jiàn) 在會(huì)議桌上,身為主持會(huì)議者,通常都需要主動(dòng)且積極地征詢(xún)各路英雄的想法及提案;在集思廣益下決定出最適當(dāng)?shù)姆桨浮?BR>適合對(duì)個(gè)人的邀請(qǐng) What
are your views on...? What are your feelings about...? What are your
feelings on this? What do you think about...? What's your opinion about
that? 適合對(duì)全體的邀請(qǐng) Any reaction to that? Has anybody any strong feelings
about/ views on that? What's the general view on/ feeling about that? Has
anybody any comments to make?
重點(diǎn)提示
A.
座前有桌子時(shí),把手放在桌下是不禮貌的。 小時(shí)候長(zhǎng)輩教訓(xùn)的"站有站相,坐有坐相",不無(wú)道理。挺胸而坐不但有精神,也是尊重他人的表現(xiàn)。癱坐在椅子上,會(huì)讓對(duì)方覺(jué)得不正式、缺乏誠(chéng)意,甚至不尊重。如果您是坐在桌前,就將手肘輕放在桌上,讓人看到,以表示無(wú)所隱藏;此時(shí),手掌可交握,或手指相碰,不慌不亂,這種姿態(tài)代表專(zhuān)注與尊重。
B.
說(shuō)話時(shí),不自覺(jué)地摸鼻子,表示對(duì)對(duì)方有所保留,不愿坦誠(chéng)。 如果對(duì)方有摸鼻子的習(xí)慣,或不經(jīng)意地觸摸臉部,從潛意識(shí)的觀點(diǎn)來(lái)看,這表示對(duì)方正筑一道墻,隱藏真心,不贊同你的意見(jiàn)。而搔頭,除了表示頭皮癢,還有不懂的含意。此時(shí),不妨輕描淡寫(xiě)地把話再說(shuō)一次,避免直接問(wèn)對(duì)方是否不懂。
C.
如何利用姿勢(shì)強(qiáng)調(diào)說(shuō)話的語(yǔ)氣? 過(guò)去生意人所采取最強(qiáng)勢(shì)的身體姿態(tài),即是將雙手?jǐn)R在腰際,一副隨時(shí)要拔槍的樣子;除此之外,雙腿還要分立,相隔一尺半。不過(guò)時(shí)代變了,現(xiàn)在所強(qiáng)調(diào)的是合作與協(xié)調(diào),新的強(qiáng)勢(shì)姿勢(shì)是用手握住另一只手,將手靠在身體一側(cè),這表示坦誠(chéng)、彈性。此外,利用姿勢(shì)可以強(qiáng)調(diào)說(shuō)話的語(yǔ)氣,如雙腿分立,右腳微微向前,強(qiáng)調(diào)重點(diǎn)時(shí)前傾;而放松時(shí)則可后傾將重心放在左腳。
