语法
用 what time 和 where 提问:What time is the breakfast? Where is the restaurant? 回答给出了时间(from seven to ten,by eleven)和地点(right across the hall)。
用 can 表达礼貌请求:How can I help you? Can I have your name, please?
用 must 表达规定:You must leave by eleven.By 的意思是“不迟于……”。
用于指示的祈使句:Take the golden key, walk down the hall, open up the door.
第一条件句(真实条件句):If you need a towel, we can bring you more. If you need some room service, just give us a call.(if + 一般现在时,主句用 can/will)
用 will 表达将来时:We will send your luggage. Your stay will be so sweet.
名词还是动词?带连字符的 Check-in 和 check-out 是名词(the check-out is at eleven)。作为动词时,它们是两个独立的词:I check in, you must check out.Checking in is really not so hard 则使用了 -ing 形式(动名词)作为主语。
注意:为了押韵或节奏而调整的歌词
"this hotel is like a heaven":在正常的英语中,我们说 like heaven,不加 a。这里的 a 只是为了凑节奏并与 eleven 押韵。
"the best you have ever seen":这是为了与 screen 押韵而开的玩笑。你在报名字时不会这么说。
"If you need a towel, we can bring you more":通常你会说 If you need more towels, we can bring you some. 这句歌词是为了与 door 押韵而调整的。
"What time is the breakfast?":通常我们说 What time is breakfast?,不加 the。
"with a pastry and a sweet":sweet 是为了与 eat 押韵。真正的前台接待员会说类似 with pastries and fruit 这样的话。
"your stay will be so sweet":可以理解,但不太常见。前台接待员通常会说 We hope you enjoy your stay.
