英文角落-練口說#5 如何有禮貌地請求協助

其實很多人都很優秀、很聰明，但常常很缺乏自信、不敢表達自己，特別是在講英文的時候，所以只能當那個不敢開口、聽別人的話照做的人。
今天教大家在「請求別人協助時」，一些有禮貌、很適當的說法，剛開始說話的時候氣勢一對，後面就更能自信、自在、有禮貌、進退合宜的完成對話。

對話全文：
S: Hey, good morning.
C: Hey, Sean, good morning, oh you look great today.
S: Thank you. It’s very nice of you to say that.
C: Can you do me a favor?
S: I will do my best. What’s the favor?
C: I’m wondering if you could fill in for me next Monday? My parents are visiting me next week and I will be away for 3 days on a family trip.
S: Well, I’m afraid I can’t guarantee anything now. I’m having a tight schedule lately. But if I am available, I will make sure that I help you in all possible ways.
C: What a relief! Thank you so much for helping me out! I really appreciate it!
S: Not at all. Since I’m covering you for next week, would you mind covering me for the afternoon?
C: Sure!
S: Many thanks.
C: Anytime.
