陳豪在北京的ABC美國(guó)公司工作。他在走廊上遠(yuǎn)遠(yuǎn)地看到美國(guó)同事Amy,連忙趕了過(guò)去。
(Office ambience)
C:Amy, 我有點(diǎn)兒急事想請(qǐng)教你。
A:OK, What is it?
C:跟我一個(gè)辦公室的Todd, 他媽媽在美國(guó)去世了。
A:I don't know Todd, but I am sorry to hear that.
C:他要回美國(guó)奔喪。我想為他做點(diǎn)兒什么,但又不知道怎樣做才符合西方的禮節(jié),所以今天早上我一直在躲著他。
A:---1---?
C:太好了,你快告訴我。
A:---2---.
C:什么是condolences?
A:Condolences就是表示同情、慰問(wèn)。
C:我唯一能想到的就是 "---3---." 就這么一句好像不太夠吧?
A:---4---.
C:是呀,我也是怕說(shuō)多了反而壞事。
A:---5---.
C:幫忙, 可我能幫什么忙呢?
A:---6---.
C:開(kāi)車(chē)送他去機(jī)場(chǎng)確實(shí)是個(gè)好主意,可惜我沒(méi)車(chē)。
A:---7---?
C:對(duì)呀,我們是一個(gè)組的,他請(qǐng)假,我可以承擔(dān)一部分他的工作。我這就去跟他說(shuō)。謝謝你,Amy.

MC:午飯時(shí)陳豪又看見(jiàn)了Amy.
A:Chen Hao, How did things go with Todd?
C:你說(shuō)得沒(méi)錯(cuò)。我說(shuō)可以承擔(dān)他的工作,Todd顯得如釋重負(fù)。另外,我還想到了其它可以出力的地方。
A:What was that?
C:Todd是我的鄰居,他養(yǎng)了一只貓,叫Fluffy. 我告訴他說(shuō),他離開(kāi)這段時(shí)間,我可以照顧Fluffy, 他聽(tīng)了以后特別高興。
A:---8---

A:---10---?
C:是啊,我們總是不好意思求別人辦事,要是能主動(dòng)提出來(lái),那是再好不過(guò)的了。
A:---11---.
C:幸虧有你,Amy.

That's a perfectly natural response. May I suggest a few things First of all, don't avoid him. Make a point of going to him immediately and offering your condolences I'm sorry to hear about your loss Sometimes that's all you can say. If you try to say more, it may be the wrong thing If you can, follow your statement of condolence with an offer to help Think of what he may need that you can do. You might offer to take him to the airport What about work issues? Are there things you can help him with while he is away It is important to be specific at times like these. So often people simply say, "Let me know if there is anything I can do to help." You can, but that's not necessary since you are expressing your sympathy in a concrete way You see how easy it is to think of acts of service for people who are grieving That's right. Too often when people don't know what to do at a time of loss, they end up not doing anything
