Helen
大家好，歡迎收聽 BBC 英語(yǔ)教學(xué)節(jié)目《你問(wèn)我答》，我是 Helen。在這檔節(jié)目中，我們會(huì)回答朋友們發(fā)來(lái)的有關(guān)英語(yǔ)學(xué)習(xí)和英國(guó)生活、習(xí)俗及文化的相關(guān)問(wèn)題。今天的問(wèn)題來(lái)自網(wǎng)友 Yan。她的提問(wèn)是：

Question
Hi, I was wondering what is the correct way to ask a friend about last weekend: “How was your weekend?” or “How about your weekend?”
Thanks, Yan

Helen
謝謝 Yan 的提問(wèn)。“How was your weekend?”和“How about your weekend?” 應(yīng)該說(shuō)是我們最常聽到的有關(guān)周末問(wèn)候的句子。這兩句話的不同之處是 was 和 about。Yan 的問(wèn)題是想知道當(dāng)你想問(wèn)朋友“周末過(guò)得怎樣”時(shí)怎么說(shuō)？ 在多數(shù)情況下，尤其是當(dāng)你先問(wèn)候朋友的時(shí)候“How was your weekend？”是英國(guó)人最常用的問(wèn)候句之一 。請(qǐng)聽例句。

Example
A: Good morning. 早上好。
B: Morning, John. How was your weekend? 早上好，John。你周末過(guò)得怎樣啊？
A: Great. I went to see my friends in Leeds. 很好。我到利茲去看朋友了。

Helen
那如何使用“How about your weekend”呢？當(dāng)你在回復(fù)別人的問(wèn)候之后，同時(shí)也想順便問(wèn)候一下對(duì)方，那你就可以用“How about your weekend ？”接著聽例句。

Example
A: Good morning. 早上好。
B: Morning, John. How was your weekend? 早上好，John。你周末過(guò)得怎樣啊？
A: Great. I went to see my friends in Leeds. How about your weekend? 很好。我到利茲去看朋友了。你的周末過(guò)得怎樣呢？
B: I stayed in and tidied up my garden. 我在家過(guò)的，順便把花園整理了一下。

Helen
“How was”的問(wèn)句非常有用，通常在朋友休假后，旅行后或是去參加了什么活動(dòng)后，碰到時(shí)都可以用 “how was”， 一般是提起對(duì)對(duì)方已經(jīng)發(fā)生過(guò)事情的想法的詢問(wèn)。 一起來(lái)看看幾個(gè)例句吧。

Examples
How was your holiday? 你的度假過(guò)得怎樣啊？
How was your trip? 你旅行得怎樣？
How was your break? 你休假怎樣了？
How was your meeting? 你的會(huì)議怎么樣？

Helen
當(dāng)然，見面的問(wèn)候語(yǔ)在各種語(yǔ)言中都非常豐富，在英語(yǔ)中也不例外。關(guān)于小別后的問(wèn)候，我們常聽到的還有：

Examples
What did you get up to at the weekend? 你周末干啥了？
What did you do at the weekend? 你周末忙什么了？
Did you have a good weekend? 你周末過(guò)得還好吧？

Helen
當(dāng)別人問(wèn)候我們的時(shí)候，除了回復(fù) yes 或 no 之外，通常人們會(huì)說(shuō)一兩句所做的事情或者是感受。 比如。

Examples
A: Good to see you, Jack. How was your trip? 很高興見到你 Jack。你的旅行怎樣啊？
B: It was brilliant. We travelled all around Asia and I had the time of my life. 太棒了。我們?cè)趤喼拮吡艘蝗Γ冗^(guò)我一生中最美好的時(shí)光。

C: What were you up to at the weekend? 你的周末干了些什么？
D: Not much, revising for my exams actually. 沒(méi)干啥，準(zhǔn)備考試呢。

Helen
好了，希望今天我們的節(jié)目能夠幫助大家在與朋友小別后，輕松地相互問(wèn)候。“How was your weekend?”是我們常聽到的問(wèn)候句， 回答別人的時(shí)候時(shí)，加上一兩句自己的感受或經(jīng)歷是最完美的回復(fù)，如果回復(fù)后也想順便問(wèn)候一下對(duì)方，就用“How about yours?” By the way, how was our lesson today? Hope you like it.

再次感謝 Yan 的提問(wèn)，歡迎大家和我們聯(lián)系，我們的郵箱是 questions.chinaelt@bbc.co.uk 我是 Helen，下次節(jié)目再見！
