英语学习之如何礼貌的结束对话

　　手势是礼貌地结束对话的另一种方式。例如，你可以频繁地看手表，把包背在肩上，或者不打算再提出问题。有时候可以用一些传统的表达，例如"I'd better let you go"（我好让你走”，这是结束对话的好方式，还可以让别人带着笑容离开。）

　　这里有一组对话的例子，Jerry和Tom准备要开始交谈，但是Tom要去参加一个会议。

　　Jerry: Hey Tom, how are you? （Tom,你好吗？)

　　Tom: I'm good! Thank you for asking! 我很好，谢谢你的问候！

　　Jerry: I can't believe you fell on your face yesterday. (Chuckling) 我无法相信你昨天摔了嘴啃地。（偷笑）

　　Tom: Neither can I, but what can I say, my laces were untied. 我也无法相信。我的鞋带松了。

　　Jerry: (Laughing) But that explains why you fell so hard. You got up so quickly though, that was even more hilarious. It was like watching a James Bond movie gone wrong. （大笑）但是这解释了你为什么摔得那么厉害。你站起来太快了，所以更滑稽了。就像看到James Bond的电影里的出错情节那样。

　　Tom: (Looks at the watch) I was hoping no one saw me! （看着手表）我希望没人看见我！

　　Jerry: Are you kidding? We all saw you! What were you thinking not tying your shoelaces? 你在开玩笑吗？我们都看见了！你怎么不系鞋带呢？

　　Tom: Listen, sorry, I would love to chat with you but I have a meeting to get to. 对不起，我很想和你聊下去，但是我还有一个会议要参加。

　　Jerry: Ok I'll see you soon then, I hope the meeting goes well.好的，以后再见。祝你会议顺利。

　　Tom: Me too!!我也是!!

　　At the end of the day honesty might be the best policy. If you really have to be somewhere else, people will generally understand that the conversation has to end. 其实，坦诚是好的方法。如果你真的要去别的地方，别人就会明白你要结束当前的对话。
