Whether it comes to sharing toys or household tasks, children are taught to take their turn. 美国人对他们的公平意识感到自豪，轮流做事从孩子们很小的时候就在脑海里根深蒂固了。不管是分享玩具还是分配家务劳动，孩子们都学会要轮流交换。It's your turn to make dinner.轮到你做饭了。63.Just let me know if...如果……，就告诉我。Just let me know if I can do anything for you.如果有什么我可以帮忙的，就告诉我。Just let me know if you don't understand.如果你不明白，就告诉我。64.Maybe I will...或许我可以……Maybe I will be able to see you tonight.或许我今晚可以见你。65....means a lot to me.……对我来说很重要。My family means a lot to me.我的家庭对我来说很重要。66.My point is...我的意思是……Andrew's Note: This is an excellent way to explain the essence of something you have already said.用这个句型来解释你已经说过的话中的精髓，那是再好不过了。My point is that you're wasting your time at that job.我的意思是你做那个工作是在浪费时间。My point is that you need to be more reponsible.我的意思是你的责任心不够。67....neither...nor...既不……，也不……He neither drinks nor smokes.他既不抽烟，也不喝酒。68.Nice to...很高兴……Nice to meet you.很高兴认识你。Nice to see you again.很高兴再次见到你们。69.No wonder...难怪……You jogged 10 miles?

It's not your fault.请不要那样说。那不是你的错。Please don't make a fuss.请不要小题大做。76...., that is to say, ...……，也就是说，……Andrew's Note: One of the special things about English is the multitude of different ways one can say the same thing. English speakers often like to say the same thing twice, joined with this phrase, in order to make their meaning more dear. 英语的一个特点就是可以用很多不同的方式来说明同一件事情。讲英语的人为了使他们的意思表达得更清楚明白，经常喜欢将这个短语放在句子中间，把同一件事情表达两次。He's a workaholic, that is to say, a man who devotes all his energy to work.他是个工作狂，也就是说，他把全部精力都投入到工作中。77.That reminds me...那提醒了我/那让我想起了……That reminds me I need to buy my wife a gift for her birthday.那提醒了我要给我妻子买一件生日礼物。That reminds me of the summer we spent on Hainan Island.那让我想起了我们在海南岛度过的夏季。78.That's the best...那是最好的……That's the best you'll find.那是你能找到的最好的东西。79.That's very...of you.你真……That's very nice of you.你真好。80.They say...听人说/有人说……Andrew's Note: Who are “they”? No one knows. But any time you want to back a statement with more authority than your own, you can just say that “they” say so, but be ready to say who “they” are if somone asks you. 到底谁是“他们”?没人知道。但有时你想找到比自己更有说服力的人来支持你的言论，那么你就可以简单地说“他们都这么说”。但如果有人问你“他们是谁”，你要有回答的准备。They say the president is going to resign.听人说总裁要辞职。They say our manager is gay.有人说我们经理是同性恋。
