英国人日常交际英语 9. Do you have any brothers or sisters?

9. Do you have any brothers or sisters?

为了更好的与人交流,问家人相关的话题永远是最佳选择,几乎所有人都愿意聊最佳家里人吧?

音频请戳下面:

在有些英语教材上,我们可能学习到:

Do you have any siblings?

但实际上,在日常交流中,人们很少用"siblings", 一般会简单地问:

Do you have any brothers or sisters?

人们不说sisters or brothers哦,brothers or sisters词序是的!

人们一般这样回答:

Yeah, I have two brothers.

Yeah, I have a brother and a sister.

Yeah, I have two sisters.

有的人还会告诉我们年龄大小:

Yeah, I have two younger brothers.

Yeah, I have a younger brother and an older sister.

在这里,older和elder一样。

如果对方没告诉我们年龄相关的信息,我们可以礼貌地接着问,来表示我们感兴趣:

Is she/he younger or older than you?

Are they younger or older than you?

没有兄弟姐妹,独生子怎么说:

I'm an only child.

Tips:

了解了这些信息后,如果没什么可问的了,我们该肿么办?边点头边用上万金油似的表达吧:

Oh, really?

这样说时一定要显得很感兴趣的样子,否则是很不礼貌,甚至听起来很刺耳!
