2.3描述员工

organized,有条理的

一种更积极的方式来应对员工的弱点即是给出建设性的批评,而不是简单地给出消极的评论。

She's so disorganized. > She needs to be more organized. 她很混乱。 > 她应该要更有条理些。

So do I.
Neither do I.

He's too negative. > He should be more positive. 他太消极了。 > 他应该积极些。

发表意见的时候用 'I think that'

使用 I think that 来表示您在发表一个意见。 使用 so do I 来表示同意一个 I think that 和 I like 这样的短语所表达的意见.

A: I think that he does a really good job.
B: So do I.

A: I like them both.
B: So do I.

使用neither do I 来赞成 I don't think that 这样句式所表达的意见, 或其他否定意见。

A: I don't think she's lazy.
B: Neither do I.

请注意 that 可以省掉且句子的含义没有受到影响。

要征求别人的意见,您可以使用what do you think about 以及 do you think。
A: What do you think about Denise?
B: She's very efficient.

A: Do you think Paul is too disorganized?
B: No, not really.

语言注释:neither有两种发音方法。在下面的例子中,第一个在美国比较普遍的;第二种多见于英国。但它们可以互换使用。

A: I don't think he's disorganized.
B: Neither do I.
A: I don't think she's very efficient.
B: Neither do I.

2.4 给出推荐

在工作中所用的副词

使用状态副词加动词来表示完成某件事情的方式。
Martina works quickly.
She works well with the team.
I highly recommend Martina.
I'm going to miss her terribly.

使用时间副词加动词来表示时间。
Her husband is already in New York.
She's leaving that soon?

您可以使用副词来修饰形容词。

The brochure was really beautiful.
She's so creative.

有些副词修饰其他副词. 请注意 pretty 和 so 是如何给这些句子添加额外的细节的。

She can learn that pretty quickly.
He writes so well.

您可以使用副词honestly 在一个句子前边来强调强调某个要点。

Honestly, what are we going to do?

推荐同事

We're interviewing Joe Wilson for a job at our company.

在这些例子中,注意问题是如何用具体信息回答的。

A. Did you work together?

A. Do you recommend him?
B. Yes. I highly recommend him. He's very intelligent.
