从朋友、亲戚、家人和同事那里寻求帮助是很常见的事。当你在寻求帮助时,礼貌很重要。可以使用这些短语来进行礼貌地求助。特别要注意你所使用的动词的形式。

Asking a Favor寻求帮助

Could / Would you do me a favor?——当某人想请你帮忙时,一般会用这种形式来提问,将其作为开头语。

Would you do me a favor? I need some help.你能帮我个忙吗?我需要帮助。

Could you do me a favor? I'm late for work ...你能帮我个忙吗?我上班迟到了······

使用Could you please + verb的形式,以在具体的情境中礼貌地寻求帮助。

Could you please take me to work?能请你载我去上班吗?

Could you please lend me a hand?能请你帮我个忙吗?

使用Could you possibly + verb的一般形式,以在具体的情境中礼貌地寻求帮助。

Could I possibly take some time off to help?能耽误你一些时间帮个忙吗?

Could you possibly work overtime today?你今天能加班吗?

使用Could I ask / bother / trouble you + infinitive 这个“我能请/麻烦你+不定式”的句式——在正式场合中,可以使用动词的不定式形式(to do)来寻求帮助。

Could I ask you to help my brother?能请你帮帮我哥哥吗?

Could I bother you to give a ride to work?我能搭你的顺风车去上班吗?

Could I trouble you to open the door for me?能麻烦你帮我开下门吗?

使用Would you mind + verb + ing 这个“你介意+动词-ing”的句式——在日常情境中,可以使用动名词形式来寻求帮助。

Would you mind closing the window? 你介意我关上窗户吗?

Would you mind cooking dinner tonight? 你介意今晚做晚饭吗?

使用Would it be too much trouble for you + infinitive的句式——在非常正式的场合,可以使用这种不定式形式来寻求帮助。

Would it be too much trouble for you tolet me come in late tomorrow? 我明天晚点回来会麻烦你吗?

Would it be too much trouble for you to take a look at this letter?能麻烦你看看这封信吗?

使用May I + verb? 的句式——当你寻求帮助时,需要得到别人的许可,就可以使用动词一般式。

May I leave class early? 我能早点下课吗?

May we use your telephone? 我们能用用你的手机吗?

Granting a Favor同意给予帮助

如果你想对向你求助的人表示“可以”,你可以使用这些短语来表示同意。

1.Sure.当然。

2.No problem.没问题。

3.I'd be happy to help you.能帮到你我很高兴。

4.It would be my pleasure.我的荣幸。

5.I'd be glad to help out.我很乐意帮助你。

当你同意帮助别人时,询问更多具体的信息是很常见的。例如,如果你的朋友请你帮助他完成一个项目,你可能会提出一些疑问,从而明白需要做什么。

Refusing a Favor拒绝帮助

如果你不能帮助别人,需要拒绝的话,你可以用这些回答来拒绝别人的求助。

1.I'm afraid I can't.恐怕我不行。

2.Sorry, but I'm unable + infinitive.抱歉,但我不能+不定式。

3.Unfortunately, I'm not able + infinitive.很可惜,我不能+不定式。

4.Regrettably, I can't + verb很遗憾,我能不能+动词。

拒绝别人不是一件趣事,但有时候却是必要的。通常,如果不能帮到别人,我们会提出另一个方案来帮助解决问题。
