口語

Scene 1:
Chang:Before I came to the United States, I had the impression that women

Yang:You can say that again. American’s a man’s world too.
張：還沒來到美國之前，在我的印象里，以為美國女人無論在社會上 或家庭里都比男人強，
不過現在我覺得這個印象是不正確的。
楊：一點也沒錯，美國是個男性社會。
Scene 2:
Yang:I think there is a sharp contrast between Chinese and Americans.For example,
the Americans are very individualistic, while the Chinese are very group-oriented.

of them.

譬如說，美國人非常個人主義，而中國人就非常集體傾向。
張：一點也沒錯，中國人總是非常在意別人對他們的看法。
Scene 3:

Chang:You can say that again! The woman I just went out to dinner with insisted on
paying her own way. And when I took her home she kissed me goodnight!

張：一點也沒錯！剛才和我一起去吃飯的那個女人，不但堅持自己付錢，而且當我送她回家時，還親吻我道晚安！ 用法：用于親朋友間，表示同意他的看法。
