3. 对于这种请求的肯定和否定回答的常用语
肯定回答常用语:Certainly. / Of course. / With pleasure. / No problem. / Sure. / Yes, you can.
否定回答常用语:I’m afraid not. / No, I’m afraid I can’t. / No, you can’t.
三、could与can的区别
could与can都是情态动词,could是can的过去式。二者都可用于表示请求,但是用法稍有不同:
1. can表示一般性的请求,语气随便,常用于熟人之间或长辈对晚辈、上级对下级的场合。☞ Can you tell us your story, Tony? 你能给我们讲讲你的故事吗,托尼?
2. could表示有礼貌地请求,语气委婉,常用于非熟人之间或晚辈对长辈、下级对上级的场合。
☞ —Could you tell us if it snows in winter in Australia? 请告诉我们,澳大利亚冬天下雪吗?
—Sure. 当然可以。
二、家务劳动
Unit 3 Could you please clean your room ?
