轻松日记商务职场篇88:电话线路不好

 　　核心句型：

　　We have a poor connection.

　　我们的电话线路不好。

　　We have a poor connection.直译过来就是：“我们之间的连接状况很差”，这个短语的正确意思是：“我们的电话线路不好”。因此，当美国人说"We have a poor connection."时，他/她要表达的意思就是:"We cannot hear each other clearly on the phone."、"There is something wrong with the phone line."。

　　情景对白：

　　Client¹: Hello, Ben. I'm calling to ask for some further information.

　　客户：嗨，本，我打电话是想获得更进一步的信息。

　　Benjamin: Hello...Hello...Hello? Can you hear me? We have a poor connection.

　　本杰明：喂……喂……喂？你听得见我说话吗？我们的电话线路不好。

　　搭配句积累：

　　①Hello? Are you still there?

　　喂？你还在吗？

　　②Hang on, please! I haven't caught you.

　　先别挂断啊！我还没听清你说什么呢。

　　③I will call you back next time.

　　我下次再联系你。

　　④Oh, God! I completely can't hear you.

　　噢，天啊，我完全听不到你在说什么呀！
