一、工作展示-Presentation
经常做Preseantation就会知道，想取得好的效果并不在乎你中间说了什么，重要的是展示时你是否有自信的气场、PPT是否有吸引力，以及开头和结尾是不是印象深刻、结构清晰和表达流畅(这真的是答主的血泪经验)。 既然要结构清晰和流畅，我认为重要的技巧就是引导词和连词。
连词
连词最好准备在你忘词或者这一段已经油尽灯枯说不下去的时候用。我觉得连词中“高级”的有，但并不高级的那么明显，重要的是，你能在紧张到忘掉演讲词的时候想起来用个高级的连词。所以我建议你在pre开始前就要想好，比如对自己说“我今天一定要用however和as long as”。 以下是一些“高级”、“地道”的词：
1、However
However用在句首的效果和but基本一样，而且强调了转折，比起but是一个更好的选择。听过很多外国人做pre的表示，这个词母语者使用的频率比非母语者高很多。
2、So that
在表顺承(仅限表顺承)的时候这是一个比and高级很多的词。
3、Since和As
表原因这两词比because高级很多，重要的是用了这两个词你可以说出很长的从句。
4、Both, Either…or…, Neither…nor…
这三兄弟谁用谁知道，是很提气的!用这三组的时候，说了第一个词就会强迫你思考后半句要说什么，虽然不高级，但是很神奇。
引导词
引导词的道理和连词差不多，只不过引导词更强调“结构”，是提醒听众你接下来要说什么的关键。 推荐以下词汇：
开头用
First, we're going to ...
I'd like to begin by outlining our present situation.
You may not know that ...
中间用
Let's take a look at some of the implications of this.
Taking into consideration what we have said about X, we can see that Y ...
The main reason for these actions is ...
We have to keep in mind that ... when we consider ...
As you can see from this graph representing ...
If you could just take a look at ...
Looking at X we can see that ..
There are a number of alternatives in this case. We can ...
If we had ... , we would ...
Had we... , we could have ... Do we need to X or Y?
I think we can clearly see that we can either ... or ...
We have been considering ...
结尾用
We've discussed many points today. Let me quickly summarize the principal points:
I'd like to quickly go over the main points of today's topic:
Before we end, let me briefly recap what we have discussed here today.
Thank you all very much for taking the time to listen to this presentation. Now, ifyou have any questions, I'd be happy to answer them.
I think that's about it. I'd like to thank you all for coming in today. Do you have anyquestions?
二、面试-Interview
1、首先重要的是，让面试官感到你的自信，或者说“确定性”。
你可以使用下面的词：
It is sure/very certain that....
It is very obvious that
I am sure that my experience in xxx could help (name of the company) with xxxx
I have certain confidence in xxxx
2、要有中心，要在几个问题内让面试官知道你最明显的特点。
这些表达很好用：
As I mentioned before, I am a very xxx person and this could also apply to xxxx as well
If you remember what I said in last question, I could xxxxx
As I said before..........
3、面试时，你通常不会有太多思考时间，你可以用 well等词拖延时间。
这是可以接受的，你也可以用一些打太极的招式，比如
I am very confident that I can bring certain things to the firm/help the firm inmany ways...
In my understanding of the culture of this company.....
I am sure that the culture of this company delivers certain things that agree with my own value and hence(争取时间的大招!)
4、关于工资，你不能太直白地说My expected salary ....
你至少要委婉地加上你要求某个数字的原因：
In reference to my xx years of working experience in the industry, I am expecting a payment like xxxxx
In regard of the average salary in the industry............
Considering the industry.....
三、办公室-In Office
当在办公室与老板、同事交流时，要记住，你交流的对象，职场中的大家都很忙，所以给你的时间是极其有限的。在这种情况下，所需要的技巧就是“快速表达你的目的”换而言之就是要使用“action message”——你要干啥。 那些老外是这样和老板沟通的：
1、他们通常直呼其名 Hi, John
2、为了开门见山地表达目的，他们通常会说 Hi John,just about the efficient frontier you mentioned in the lecture Hi,John, in regarding of the issue of xxxxxx 没错，甚至都不需要加疑问词，就是这么直接，老板不会怪你的。
3、如果你是要问关于某个项目、某个工作的问题，就需要先向老板表明“你在做xx项目/工作，这样他们才能提出具体建议。
你可以说
Hi, John! I am working on xx, can I get a few thoughts on xxx?
Hi, John! In regarding of xx part of xxx project, can I do like xxxxxxx
Hi, John! I just want to know that whether it is alright to do xxx in xxx project?
交流之后请不要忘了表达感谢!
四、非正式社交场合-Informal Social Setting
这个就太多太多了，但是我想纠正一个误区，仅就我自己的经验来说，老外们，包括青少年日常聊天使用的俚语并不是很多，有几句经常听到的，但是说是俚语，不如说是表达方法，比如
1、 It is like.......这是老外最爱用的，几乎可以做一切句子的开头，或者可以是I was like…He/She is like....
2、反问句，这也是老外很爱用的 Why not go there/接名词 Don't you like him? Don't you want to?
3、I just wanted to这个聊天的时候也很常用。
4、打招呼的时候最常用的是“hey what's up”或者“hey bro/babe”这个貌似都知道…告别的时候老外最爱用的是“catch you later”。
5、老外聊天时很喜欢征求你的意见Do you like it? 最常用(注意连读) what youthink (注意不是what do you think)
6、几个很酷的词：bloody, awesome, retarded +形容词
