Part 2 Introducing Other People 給別人做介紹
Dialogue Script 1 對話原文 1
Frank: Mr. Smith, I'd like you to meet my friend Lisa Peterson.
Smith: How do you do?
Lisa: How do you do?
Smith: How do you find things over here?
Lisa: If it wasn't for the climate, I'd like it very much.
Smith: It won't take you too long to settle here.
講解:
在這段對話中,Lisa Peterson被介紹給了Mr.Smith,他們兩個互道寒暄之后,又聊了一些題外話,介紹別人時的模式大體就是這樣的。
注意介紹人要給被介紹人充分的時間去交流。
Dialogue Script 2 對話原文 2
Peter: May I introduce my new associate, Sarah Jackson? She represents the Dragon River Wear Company in China. This is Jay Mayor, a buyer for Bloomingdale's.
Sarah: Pleased to meet you, Mr. Mayor.
Mayor: Pleasure's mine. How is it going in China? Do you like it there?
Sarah: Quite good. The climate is pleasing and the food is great.
講解:
這段對話發生的背景顯然是一個商業酒會,說法都比較正式。介紹人把雙方都介紹了一下,包括他們的職業。但是注意不要說的太多,因為第一次見面大都不會談的太深入。
給別人作介紹的常用基本表達方式:
比較正式的表達方式:
I'd like you to meet Mr. Smith.
I'd like to introduce Mrs. Linda Simpson.
May I introduce Mr. David Parker?
Allow me to introduce my friend Peter Brown. Peter, this is Mr. Howard Smith.
Allow me to introduce you to my manager.
Mr. Smith, let me introduce Mr. John Peterson.
比較隨意的表達方式:
Meet my friend Peter Brown.
Mr. Smith, this is Mr. Brown.
Jack, this is Miranda. Miranda, this is Jack.
回答就與做自我介紹時差不多,雙方要互相問候。
另外,在做具體介紹的時候,應該平舉右手掌示意,而且眼神、手勢要投向被介紹者,不要用手指,這樣會顯得不尊敬。
