打电话（Making phone calls）
1、请给某人/某单位打电话
Would/could/can you ring up...?请你...打电话好吧?
句中ring up意思是“给某人打电话”，除了用ring up外，还可用call, call up, telephone 等，意思相同 can you...?用得最普通：could/would you...?用在正式场合，比较礼貌。
2、电话拨不通时常说：
The line is busy , I can‘t get through.电话占线，我打不通。
/ I’ll try again later.我过一会儿再打.
其中line指电话线路，get through 指接通电话。
3、电话拨通后相互打招呼：
Hello，(name or telephone number)你好，(并通报本人的姓名或单位名称或电话号码)Hello，is that...speaking?你是...吗? / Who is that speaking/calling?你是谁?/ Who is speaking/calling, please?你是谁?
应答时常说：Yes,(this is)...speaking. 是的，我是..../ Yes, it‘s...here. 我是....
4、打电话请对方找人或留言：
Is...in/at home? 某某在家吗?/ Can/may/could I speak to..., please?请...接电话好吗?/ Will/would you give a message to..., please?请给...捎个口信好吗? / Would you tell him my telephone number, please? 请你把我的电话号码告诉他好吗?/ Can/could you ask...to ring me back, please?请叫...给我回个电话好吗?
应答时常说：
Hold on/Wait a minute/One moment, please. 请等一等 / I‘m sorry...is not in./at home now.对不起，...现在不在 / Can I take a message? 我能给你捎口信好吗?/ Does he have your telephone number?他有你的电话号码吗?/ I’ll ask him to call you back. 我叫他给你回电话
