汉家陵阙

1. It's not like that. 不是那样的
It's not like that.这句话是用来辟谣的。当别人误会了一件事的来龙去脉，你就可以跟他说It's not like that.「不是那样的。」当然随着语气及情境的不同，It's not like that.这句话也有可能是你用来硬拗的藉口。
2. There is nothing good playing. 没好电影可看
这里的There's nothing good playing.是接着问句而来的，指的是「没有好电影可看。」同样的，若是电视上没有好节目可看，你就可以说There's nothing good on TV.
3. I've gotten carried away. 我扯太远了。
get carried away字面上的意思是「被带走了」，那么被带走的是什么呢？就是心思。当你或是他人说话的时候离了题，偏离主旨扯远了。你就可以用上这个表达法I've / You've gotten carried away.
4. Good thing... 还好，幸好…
在美语当中若要表达中文里「还好，幸好…」的语气，你就可以用Good thing...做开头。这个句型非常简单又好用，你只要在Good thing后面加上完整的句子就可以。

<P>  Fancy meeting you here! </P>
<P>相信对很多上班族来说，最梦寐以求的就是能够拥有一个长假期，可以有一段长时间不用见到自己的老板，所以你就决定买张机票出国度假。然而最恼人的是，千里迢迢坐了十几小时飞机后，竟然发现自己的老板也在伦敦大桥上赏风景，四目交投，这时候你可不要惊讶地说："What are you doing here?" 你应该收起惊讶的表情，然后扮成一张笑脸跟他说："Hey! Fancy meeting you here!" “嗨，多么令人惊讶，竟然在这里遇到你！”</P>
<P>对话
A: Hello! Fancy meeting you here!
B: Hi, Martin! What brings you here?
A: My new job. My office is right across this street.
B: I can’t talk. I got to go.
甲：嗨，真凑巧，竟在这儿遇见你！
乙：真巧，马丁! 什么风吹你来的？
甲：我的新工作。我的办公室就在马路对面。
乙：不讲啦，我要走了。 </P>

<P>  </P>
<P>如果你意外地发现自己心仪的对象竟然就在面前，你应该赶快过去跟他说："Hey！Fancy meeting you here！" “竟然在这个地方碰到你！”通常我们说这句话的时候一定属于不期而遇、万万没有想到，所以你可以在这句话前加个‘助语词’，例如“Hello！”或是“Hey！”
如人家跟你说：“Hey！Fancy meeting you here！”你可以继续说：“What brings you here ?”“什么风把你吹来啦？”</P>
<P>Fancy作动词用，意思是‘想象’，口语上常用来起句，有‘真想不到’的感叹含义，例如：
(1) Fancy that! He’s falling in love! （他恋爱了，真想不到！）
(2) Fancy my sister’s falling in love with him! （想不到我妹妹爱上了他！）
除了说“Fancy that !”之外，fancy一般直接带出动名词，“Fancy meeting you here ! ”是一例子。</P>

<P>  

<P>意外碰到人家，除了说Fancy meeting you here. 表示惊奇，还有几个习惯说法：
(1) Imagine meeting you here! （想不到在这里碰到你！）
(2) What a surprise to meet you here! （在这里碰到你，真想不到！）
(3) Never thought I’d see you here! （绝对想不到会在这里碰到你！）
要语气随便一点，还可以说：What are you doing in this neck of the woods? / What brings you to this neck of the woods? （你在这里干什么？/ 什么风把你吹来啦？）
This neck of the woods是美国口语，不宜用于严肃的写作。Neck本来指脖子般狭长的土地， 从前美国西南部 (the southwest) 树木丰茂，凡有人聚居的地方，都叫做a neck of the woods（树林中的颈状地带）。后来 a neck of the woods这成语遍传美国，成为‘地带’的意思，例如：Property prices have slumped in this neck of the woods.（这一带的房地产价格暴跌了）。 </P> </P>
