我的新手机坏了,不能开机。我很生气!你需要去投诉吗?或者,你的咖啡不热?你该怎么办?今天我们会学习如何在中国商店解决问题。听完这集,你就能清楚地表达你的问题了。

你好!我今天很不开心。我上周买了一个新电水壶,但是它坏了。我回到商店,找到了客户服务台。我排队等了一会儿。一个服务员走过来,问我:‘有什么可以帮助您的吗?’ 我说:‘你好,我的电水壶有问题。它不工作了。’ 我把水壶给她看。她看了一眼,然后说:‘请问您的收据在哪里?’ 我开始在我的包里找。我希望他们能给我换一个新的,或者至少退钱。我的心有点紧张,不知道他们会怎么说。

Let's pause our story for a moment and look at some useful phrases from this scene.

  • 不开心 — unhappy, 我今天不开心,因为我的手机坏了。
  • 电水壶 — electric kettle, 我的新电水壶不工作了。
  • 客户服务台 — customer service desk, 我去客户服务台问问题。
  • 服务员 — service staff, 商店的服务员很有礼貌。
  • 有问题 — to have a problem, 这个产品有问题,我需要退货。
  • 收据 — receipt, 买东西后,请保留收据。, 现在,让我们回到商店,看看故事的结局。

我终于找到了我的收据,递给了服务员。她仔细地看了看,然后说:‘很抱歉,给您带来不便。’ 她拿走了我的水壶,然后走到后面。过了一会儿,她回来了,手里拿着一个新的电水壶。她说:‘这是您的新水壶。您要现在测试一下吗?’ 我很高兴,马上说:‘谢谢!不用了,我相信你们。’ 在中国,很多商店的客户服务都很好,他们会努力帮助顾客解决问题。我拿着新水壶离开了商店,感觉好多了。下次我买东西会更小心地保存收据。

现在,我们来练习一些句子。

  • 我今天很不开心。— I am very unhappy today.
  • 我的电水壶有问题。— My electric kettle has a problem.
  • 它不工作了。— It doesn't work anymore.
  • 请问您的收据在哪里?— Excuse me, where is your receipt?
  • 很抱歉,给您带来不便。— I am very sorry for the inconvenience.
  • 这是您的新水壶。— This is your new kettle., 做得很好!你现在可以更好地表达问题了。
