英语口语技巧:表达意见的方式

　　生活中，经常有人会询问我们的意见，或者在某些情况下，即使没有被询问，我们也会给出自己的意见。有时我们可以非常直接地表达我们的意见，且不会让别人不开心。但是，为了不伤害或冒犯到他人，我们通常需要小心翼翼的分享我们的想法。这在商界尤其重要，因为文化差异可能会对交易产生不利影响。

英语口语技巧:表达意见的方式

　　英国人在表达自己的意见时特别小心(在商界)。他们通常不想冒犯别人，所以开始会使用一些特定的表达来缓和接下来的内容。我的顾客中有很多人都说过英国人在和同事及顾客处理问题时都非常地礼貌和体贴。所以，英国人做生意的方式通常都是令人钦佩的。

　　1. I think

　　This is the most common and general way of giving an opinion. You can use it both informally and formally: I think if you offer a consistently good service to your clients, they will keep coming back to you.

　　这是最常用、最普遍的表达意见的方式，正式和非正式情况下都可以使用：我认为如果你给客户提供始终如一的优质服务，他们会一直选择你们的服务。

　　These expressions are more formal and are often used when talking about important issues：

　　5. If you ask me

　　This is used when your opinion is critical. Sometimes, people say this even when their opinion hasn’t been asked for! – “If you ask me,…..” “But I didn’t ask you….!”
