Unit 3单词串烧Suitable expressionsWhile visiting a foreign country, its necessary for us to know how to ask for help politely.For example，you may ask “Where are the restrooms?” or “Pardon me，could you please tell me where the restrooms are？” These two requests for directions are both correct.However，the latter sounds more polite.As you can see，the former is a direct question.Without doubt，the second expression is a better choice for a good speaker.Good speakers are able to choose and use suitable expressions in different situations.It depends on whom they are speaking to or how well they know each other.If you say to your teacher, “Tell me your email address”， this might sound impolite.Instead you should say, “Excuse me，Mr.Liu. Could you please tell me your email address？” Our suggestion is that we should spend time leading in to a polite request.For example，if you say “I want to buy some stamps and post the postcards.Could you please tell me where the post office is？” he or she may give you an answer with pleasure, “It is at the corner of the central park，and its convenient to get there on foot.”Using suitable expressions in different situations is the key to be a good speaker.This will help us communicate better with other people.Section A重点词汇拓展suggest vsuggestion n.重点短语1pass by 路过；经过2pardon me 什么，请再说一遍重点句型必备1.
