关键句型
需要记住和练习的重要短语
Hold on! It's closing.
This is a quick, urgent request to stop something from happening, like a door closing. 'Hold on' is an imperative for 'wait', and 'it's closing' describes the present continuous action. Use it in situations where you need immediate help to catch something.
这是一个快速、紧急的请求，旨在阻止某事发生，比如门关上。'Hold on' 是 '等等' 的祈使句，'it's closing' 描述了现在进行时的动作。在需要立即帮助抓住某物的情况下使用。
Oh, thank you so much! I really appreciate that.
A polite and enthusiastic way to express gratitude. 'Thank you so much' intensifies thanks, and 'I really appreciate that' adds sincerity using the verb 'appreciate' in simple present. Useful after someone does a small favor to make the interaction warmer.
一种礼貌且热情的表达感激的方式。“Thank you so much”加强了感谢，“I really appreciate that”使用动词“appreciate”的简单现在时增添了真诚。在别人做小恩惠之后使用，能让互动更温暖。
No problem at all. Just made it!
A friendly response to thanks, meaning it's easy and no trouble. 'No problem at all' is idiomatic for 'you're welcome', and 'just made it' uses past tense to describe narrowly succeeding. Great for casual, reassuring replies in daily encounters.
对感谢的友好回应，意思是简单且不费力。“No problem at all”是“you're welcome”的惯用表达，“just made it”使用过去时描述勉强成功。适合日常互动中的随意、安慰性回复。
You're a lifesaver. I thought I was going to miss it.
An exaggerated compliment for help that avoids inconvenience. 'You're a lifesaver' is a fixed expression, and 'I thought I was going to miss it' uses past continuous for unrealized expectation with 'going to' for future in the past. Use it to show relief and build rapport.
对避免不便的帮助的夸张赞美。'You're a lifesaver'是一个固定表达，'I thought I was going to miss it'使用过去进行时表示未实现的期望，'going to'表示过去中的未来。使用它来表达宽慰并建立 rapport。
Glad I could help. Which floor are you heading to?
Shows happiness in assisting and shifts to practical help. 'Glad I could help' uses 'glad' with modal 'could' for ability, and the question uses 'which' for choices and 'heading to' preposition phrase. Ideal for continuing polite conversation in shared spaces like elevators.
表达帮助时的喜悦，并转向实际帮助。“Glad I could help”使用“glad”与情态动词“could”表示能力，问题中使用“which”表示选择和介词短语“heading to”。适合在电梯等共享空间中继续礼貌对话。
The third, please. Thanks again!
A direct request for a specific floor with politeness. 'The third' specifies using ordinal number, 'please' softens the request, and 'thanks again' reinforces gratitude. Commonly used when entering elevators to ask for button pressing.
对特定楼层的直接请求，带有礼貌。「第三层」使用序数指定，「请」软化请求，「再谢谢一次」强化感激。在进入电梯时请求按按钮时常用。
