   2 加薪理由

  3句英文任你选
  I've worked here for two years and never been awarded any raise.
  我在这里已经工作两年了,却从未得到加薪。
  Because I made less this year than I did last year.
  因为今年我得到的薪水比去年还要少。
  You promised to give me a raise in salary after three months' probation.
  你曾经答应3个月试用期满后给我加薪的。
  半个句型要记牢
  less... than... (不像……;不是……)
  Tip:
  一般在向上司或人事部申请加薪时,对方会问加薪的理由What makes you think we should give you a raise?(你为什么认为我们应该给你加薪?),这时就应该举出正当的理由来说服他们。less和than连用有两种结构:less than和less... than...。less than后面接形容词、副词时,意为"不;很少;不到具有否定意义。如 The young man is less than twenty years old. (这个年轻人不到20岁。); less... than意为"不像……;不是……"。例如: Joseph is less honest than his brother. (约瑟夫不像他兄弟那样诚实。)
