开口ABC 之 故事新编：黄世仁和杨白劳（在线收听） |
| Trust me! Here's a lot of fun in the ABC Express! Come on! 相信我！"ABC快乐快车"快乐多多！一起来吧！ First One: You must keep your word. This is an appeal to the borrowers' sense of integrity. If the borrower doesn't pay the money back he will be breaking his word and probably feel ashamed. 你得说话算数.这是基于借款人诚实守信基础上而说的话。如果此杨白劳不还钱，他就没信用，死赖皮。很可能他会羞愧得两颊通红！(可能而已！) Second One: Money is really tight right now. This means that you don't have much extra spending money right now and it would be very difficult for you to pay the money back at this time. 现在是罗锅子上山--钱紧哪!这是六脉神剑级的句子。无论你是不是真没钱，用这句话哭穷真是惊天地、泣鬼神！而且，逃债用这个句子就太经典了，因为你这样说，就等于：要钱没有，要命你会去坐牢！还想要钱吗？ Third One: I need my money back now! This leaves no room for negotiation. You would usually only use this phrase after politely requesting that someone repay a debt to you and they try to weasel out of it. 我现在就要你还钱.这句话表明没有商量的余地。不过得先礼后兵，先推行怀柔政策不得要领之后，就可以用这句话，让对方的狡辩无处藏身。 Fourth One: I promise you, I'll give you the money back. Hopefully when someone borrows money from you they will pay it back regardless of whether or not they said, "Ok, I promise." Sometimes it doesn't hurt to emphasize the point though. 我保证,我会还你钱的.如果顺利的话，借款的人就算不说这句话也会还钱的。尽管有时强调这点也无妨。 Fifth One: Just give me two more days. Some people really intend to pay the money back in two days and other people are just trying to postpone payment as long as possible. When you know someone well enough you will know whether to give him/her the extra time or demand payment right away. 再宽限两天吧!有些人是真打算两天后就还钱，有些人只是在尽量拖延还债时间罢了。你对一个人了解多了，便会知道是再给他/她一些时间，还是该立刻要他/她还钱。 |
