提出建议:Shall we / Let's / How about
英语提议一起做某件事,常见的有三种说法。
Shall we + 动词原形?
用来提议一起做某事(英式英语里更常见):
- Shall we go to the cinema tonight? → 今晚我们去看电影好吗?
- Shall we meet at 7pm? → 我们七点见面好吗?
Let's + 动词原形
直接、热情的提议:
- Let's have a picnic on Saturday! → 星期六我们去野餐吧!
- Let's try that new restaurant. → 我们去试试那家新餐厅吧。
How about + 动词-ing?
语气更委婉的提议:
- How about going to a concert? → 去听音乐会怎么样?
- How about meeting at the park? → 在公园见面怎么样?
注意这里的分工:Shall we 和 Let's 后面用动词原形,How about 后面用 -ing。中文的「……怎么样」后面动词从来不变,所以这个区别要专门记。
回应别人的提议
- 答应:That sounds great! / Perfect! / Why not?
- 婉拒:I'm sorry, I can't. / That doesn't work for me. / Maybe another time?
- 另提时间:I can't on Saturday, but how about Sunday?
表达

- How about going to the cinema?委婉地提议一项活动

常见错误

Let's to go bowlingLet's go bowlingLet's 后面直接跟动词原形,不加 to。
Shall we to meet at 7?Shall we meet at 7?shall 是情态动词,后面直接跟动词原形,不加 to。
That sound greatThat sounds great主语是第三人称单数(that = it),动词要加 -s。
What about go to the park?What about going to the park?What about 后面同样要用动词-ing 形式。
I will can come tomorrowI will be able to come tomorrow两个情态动词不能连用,要说 will be able to。
