一天。你可以推荐一名优秀的导游吗？

导游。

guide.

者。您是说想明天雇用他吗？

利奥: 怀特女士，伟博先生，今天下午有什么我可以为您效劳
的吗？
Leo: Ms White, Mr Webber. How can I help you this afternoon?
在以前的对话中我们学习了Can I help you? 这句话，意思是:我
能为您作些什么吗？有什么可以效劳的吗？在这段对话中，利奥知
道当怀特女士和伟博先生走向他时是要向他求助，所以利奥就说
How can I help you? 而且由于对话发生的时间是下午，因此利奥
在句子的末尾又加上了this afternoon 这个时间状语。How can I help you?
How can I help you?
How can I help you today?
How can I help you this morning?
How can I help you this afternoon?
How can I help you this evening?
现在让我们来听听利奥是如何向客人推荐旅行团及导游的吧。
利奥: 我可以向您推荐五星级旅行团行程。
Leo: I can recommend Five Star Tours.
