GCT英語(yǔ)完成會(huì)話專項(xiàng)訓(xùn)練
     8.提出抱怨
     遇到不滿意的事情和對(duì)待需要投訴時(shí),禮貌地說比較奏效。一般先要說Excuse me ,sorry,再提出你的投訴,這樣顯得很有教養(yǎng)和禮貌,你的問題才會(huì)得到更圓滿的解決。
     比如,在商店里,收款員找錯(cuò)了錢,你可以說:
     Excuse me, I think you?ve given me the wrong change
     或者 Sorry, I think this change is wrong. I gave you $20, not $10.
     ----------------------------------------
     在酒店里
     房間的調(diào)溫器壞了:
     Excuse me, but there?s a problem with the heating in my room.
     Sorry to bother you, but I think there?s something wrong with the air-conditioning.
     失竊了:
     I?m afraid I have to make a complaint. Some money has gone missing from my hotel room.
     房間沒有整理:
     I?m afraid there?s a slight problem with my room - the bed hasn?t been made.
     當(dāng)人們發(fā)現(xiàn)自己錯(cuò)了而道歉,一般都會(huì)說sorry,然后再提出把事情做好的解決辦法。
     比如對(duì)應(yīng)上面對(duì)調(diào)溫器的投訴:Excuse me, but there?s a problem with the heating. 或者
     I?m sorry – I?ll get someone to check it for you. 或者 Sorry to hear that – I?ll send someone up.
