Kim’s Note: I happen to know that this is a favorite of Teacher Lee. I know that he likes this pattern because it raises your English level dramatically. He’s right. If you use this in your daily life you will stun people with your mastery of English. “Nice to meet you” is good, but “I’ve been looking forward to meeting you” is even better.
我剛巧知道這是李老師最喜歡的一句話。我知道他之所以喜歡這句話,是因為它能夠明顯地提高你的英語水平。他是對的。在日常生活中,如果你使用這個句子,人們將會對你掌握英語的程度目瞪口呆。使用“Nice to meet you”已經很好了,但是“I’ve been looking forward to meeting you”更好。
