BEC中级商务英语考试话题总结:内幕

BEC核心句型:

What’s the catch?

有什么内幕?

What’s the catch 的翻译比较灵活,依语境而定。日常交谈中,对方免费给你好处,常常反问:What’s the catch?就是问“有什么诡计?”;也可译为“你这是什么意思?”或者“有什么内幕?”。因此,当美国人说"What’s the catch?"时,他/她要表达的意思就是:"Any more information about it?"、"Can you give me more details about it?"。

BEC情景对白:

Shirley: Our company is going to stage a party to celebrate the 10th anniversary of its foundation.

雪莉:公司要举办成立十周年庆祝晚会。

Jane: Great. What’s the catch?

简:太好啦。有什么内幕吗?
