006 Approval and Disapproval
1. Are you in favour of his opinion? 2. Is it ok now? 3. Do you approve of the new design? 4. Good. It's the correct thing to do. 5. The idea is very good. 6. What an excellent idea. 7. I don't think that's very good. 8. That's silly. 9. Surely not. 10. I must say I disapprove of the tax avoidance. Dialogue 1 W: I've typed the report. M: Well done. W: And I've filed the lettters. M: Excellent job. W: And I've checked the orders. M: I'm very impressed. W: And I've ordered the supplies. M: Congratulations. You should be very proud of yourself. Dialogue 2 M: I feel terribly bored. I'm going to take a job. W: Good. M: Then I can buy my own car. W: Splendid. M: And pay for my own clothes. W: That's an excellent idea. Dialogue 3 W: I think modern painting means nothing. M: I think so too. It's just pointless. W: Then why are so many guys so crazy about it? M: I don't know. Maybe they're really crazy. W: Maybe. Dialogue 4 M: Dalian is a beautiful city. Do you agree? W: I suppose I do. M: The climate here is pleasant. W: You said it. M: This city is really comfortable to live in. W: It sure is. M: No other city can match it. It's heaven. W: Well, if you live in other cities as long as enough, you will love them just as much. M: Maybe. W: That's for sure. No, no. It's not fair to say I disapprove, disappointed perhaps. But anyway, nothing I say is likely to make any difference, is it? I mean you've made your mind up already, haven't you? It's just that. Well, I'd always thought we would turn out differently. We'd always had particular way of life--done certain things, moved in certain circles. No, I don't disapprove. |
