最怕接到美國人電話了，每次接到電話都不知道對方在講什么。有時用錄音機錄下來， 結(jié)果聽到第七八遍才完全了解對方在說什么。提供一點電話英語(課程)給大家參考，這些也是美國人講電話時最常用到的一些句子：
別人的問題 自己的回答
打電話進來：
Is Yang there? (最常用)
Is Yang around? (次常用)
Hello, May I speak to Yang please?
Hello, Can I talk to Yang please?
如果正是本人：
This is he. (男的)
This is she。(女的)
This is Kun-Lin ( 你的名字) speaking。
You are speaking to him. (her)
You are talking to him。
如果是別人：
Hold on. (最常見)
I'll get him, Hold on please。
Hold on, let me see if he is here。
One moment please。
如果他正好不在：
No, He is out. (最常見)
No, He is not here. May I take a message?
No, He is not in。
No, He is not available。
No, He just went out, he will be back in 30 minutes。
如果他要找的人不在：
Do you know when he will be back?
Do you know where he is going?
Do you know where I can reach him?
Do you know his office number? (or work place number)
回答：
No, I am sorry, I don't know! (50%)
I have no idea. (49%)

如果要留言：

打錯電話：
Is this Wachovia Bank?
回答：

What number did you dial?
What number are you calling?
結(jié)束對話：
Thank you, have a good day。
聽不清楚時：

Say again?
