Read Paragraph 1.
When you visit a foreign country, it is important to know how to ask for help politely. For example, you may ask “Where are the restrooms ” or “Could you please tell me where the restrooms are ” These are similar requests for directions. Both are correct, but the first one sounds less polite. That is because it is a very direct question. It is not enough to just ask a question correctly. We also need to learn how to be polite when we ask for help.
n. 要求
n. 方向；方位
adj. 直接的；直率的
adj. 正确的；恰当的
Is it enough to speak correctly
No.
It is not enough to just ask a question correctly. We also need to learn
how to be polite when we ask for help.
Then answer the question.
Is it necessary to ask all the people around you indirect questions
No.
It is all right to ask your classmates direct questions because you know them well.
Then answer the question.
Usually polite questions are longer. They include expressions such as “Could you please ... ” or “May I ask ... ” It sounds more polite to say, “Peter, could you please tell me your e-mail address ” than “Peter, tell me your e-mail address.” Sometimes we even need to spend time leading into a request. For example, we might first say to a stranger , “Excuse me, I wonder if you can help me” or “I’m sorry to trouble you, but ...” before asking for help.
Read Paragraph 3.
It might seem more difficult to speak politely than directly. However, it is important to learn how to use the right language in different situations. This will help you communicate better with other people.
Read Paragraph 4 and the dialogue.
Pardon me, could you please tell me where to park my car
Sure. There’s an underground parking lot over there.
Where is the post office
Sorry. I can’t help you.
adj. 地下的；n. 地铁
停车场
In the second picture, why does the man say “Sorry, I can’t help you.” Can you change the question to a more polite one
Because the man is too impolite, he asks directly.
I may say…
Then answer the question.
Listen to the passage of 2b on Page 22, repeat. Pay attention to imitating the stress and intonation.
Listen and repeat.
